Are you referring to the fact that it is red? could it be an early 93 Anniversary model?

Maybe the car is mis-identified as a 92 when it is not... seems more likely than a 33K original car having a re-paint, but the VIN doesn't bear that out.

The VIN listed is JF1CX3538NH101427

N 1992, P 1993, in position 10... Vin shows N, and sequentially 1427th.

Sure looks like a museum-piece to me. Could it be a production gaff? Subaru starting the 1993 red paint early? It is correct for red, that the roof is body-colored, not black.
Manufacture date of 05/91. This is a strange one. The interior would be beige if it was a factory red. I emailed them and asked about it.
