Question Help with color

OK, I've done search, advanced search here and in the picture galleries. Cannot find a clear picture of a '95 SC400 in "Sunfire Red Pearl." I'm currently looking at a couple of SC400s all across the country to buy. One is this Sunfire Red Pearl color, and the ad pictures online make it look as though it is a bright, blood ferrari red. But when I google that color, what comes up are mostly tacomas and tundras, etc. all of which look more burgundy or maroon. Does someone here have an SC in that color to post a pic?

Default help with color and new question on susp.

thanks much . . . looking at pix of that color, I'm pretty sure the one I'm looking at is Renaissance Red. I'll check the color code.

I did a search looking for advice on about a 1 inch drop with springs/shocks. Lots of indications that Supra TT bilstein and eibach springs are good. But when I checked Tire Rack, no bilsteins even come up for the TT, and the only springs that show up are H&R. However, they do have Eibach prokits specifically for the 95 SC400, and some KYB GR2 shocks and KYB shock&strut mounts. Anyone have experience with this setup?I'm looking for 1inch drop, some improvement in handling, and preservation of nice ride.
thx

If you're still kind of curious you can check out ToyotaReference.com for color codes and pictures.

IMO, the supra eibach springs with bilsteins is one of the best suspension setups you can get, without going with a full coilover. It has a good drop and from what I've heard, handles great.
