the 40th anniversary edition is ruby red with 40th anniversary emblems.

Our 93's are not. All 93's have the 40th in the headrests.

All squares are rectangles.

Yep, all 93's were 40th anniversary cars. The Ruby, RPO z25 was the special anniversary package ( 6749 were built ). They look like this.

You're correct. Edit All 93's with leather seats have 40th on the headrest.
