Dude, you're color blind. That looks nothing like ruby or drm.

1995 Ruby?
One of my buddies ran across this and thought I was selling my car but it's not mine.
It's a 1995 painted like a 40th but the guy is claiming that it's factory paint.
Did they have a color that was just like the ruby that I don't know about or should I email this guy and call him an idiot?

Could be..Those metallic paints can look very different depending on lighting, camera angle. Notice the one pic appears drak red metalic almost. They are all nice colors,though.

As the owner of a 95 who looked at all of the colors offered for that year, the color you are looking at on that particular car is the dark purple metalic. The dark red mentioned previously was just that a a darker non-orange red. The color of this car when seen in person is nothing like a 93 Ruby at all, more like a purple popsicle.
All depends on your particular taste
