What color is this?

What color is this car? I don't know if I've ever seen one this color before. It almost looks purple, which I have seen on a few thirdgens, but they were all RSes. If anyone can identify it, please post pics of more cars like it. I'm trying to decide if I like the color and one picture just isn't enough...

It is a '91, so I guess it is Dark Garnet Red Metallic. Yes, the picture did come from eBay...

No, it's not my car. It might be either a replacement for, or an addition to, the The Grey Car. Here's the one I've got now...
