Say it isn't so Tony!

Whoever buys this car will get a very pampered GTS, immaculate in every way. I had the opportunity to drive it and it feels like a new car, solid, quiet and comfortable, with plenty of power.

Good luck with the sale Tony!

Cheers!
Carl

Car has been well taken care of, and always garaged & covered. Over $ 44,570 has been spent in new parts, paint, upgrades, etc and have the receipts in hand (this does not include the original purchase price) $ 58,000. Title in hand and car will be at Spring Fling this weekend. PM: 77tony or e-mail: tonycurcio1@yahoo.com with any questions. TIA T
Why doesn't it have the reflector strip across the rear bumper (between the two trail lights).

Thanks to all. Taillights are new and yes, when I had the car apart for paint I swapped in a S4 rear bumper cover. The stock GTS rbc's are a PITA, re: they warp, delaminate, sweat after you wash the car, etc. IMHO, the S4 RBC's look better, etc. more here:

I am glad that we have some of the most keen , detailed owners around,
to spot/see that rear PU cover is really cool.

FWIW I think the S 4 rear cover just looks better than the GTS PU cover does.

Sorry to see you selling this one, Tony. I remember being really impressed when I saw it in person at the 2012 928 OCIC.

All of the modifications are done tastefully and with precision. These will add value to the right buyer. I like everything done here but i'm a make it lighter Porsche person.

I would post it for sale overseas on craigslist and just wait. Tony is no dummy, he probably already has done this.

Good Luck Tony

I was watching Top Gear from '94, the Supercar special.

List:
Jag XJ220, Ferrari 456, Porsche 964 Cab and Turbo ("if you don't pay attention, it will fling you into a hedge..."), Lambo Miura, Countach, Diablo, Venturi and Renault A610 (are you serious?!), Dodge Viper, Acura NSX, Aston Martin Vantage V8 SC. Only passing mention of McLaren F1 (new at the time also).

Notice something missing? And guess what, no surprise to this audience, the GTS and 928s generally are still not on "the" supercar lists.

Of course those here understand that the 928 was arguably the most potent, luxurious, finely made car of the era.

For that reason, GTSs still trade at relatively low prices. Even at the premium GTS pricing of today, they are priced and poised for significant appreciation, imvho.

That the 928 will someday be "discovered" is a foregone conclusion in my mind. And for those who love the model and don't mind having significant potential upside, I can't think of a better place to park a few bucks.

After all, who wants to buy after it is discovered? Like Dino 246's 10 years ago, those who buy them today can't really say "I always knew they were great cars and others are just figuring it out."

There is very little financial or insider currency once the ship sails. But there is risk once the values go up appreciably. I might be concerned if I was in for a Dino at $400k...

GTS at under $60k, and this and the other very nice example from seasoned enthusiasts, safe money for sure.

GLWS, my advice is don't compromise because they are worth every penny! What an extraordinary color, Tony. Love it!
