Anybody recognize this paint color?

My 97 firebird has been repainted and I'd like to know what color it is. I pulled the carpet and the weather stripping and it's a factory color from all I can tell. Just have'nt seen it before.

Thanks for the help.

looks like cayenne red metallic
a lot similar to the patriod red i have, but i believe they discontinued the patriot red in 95 or 96 and brought cayenne red metallica in 97

It LOOKS like patriot red, but being a 97 that cannot be the case and i'll just assume its the lighting that makes it look that way, which would make it cayenne red metallic.

Some pics of my car (patriot red)
