Default Very nice 89GT with factory sport seats on eBay

Relatively low miles and some tasteful mods (Cup II wheels and aero mirrors). It is missing it's hot post cover and Club Sports, though.

If it was delivered in August of '89, it must be one of the last '89 GT's built. Production of the '90's would have started in July or August of '89.

Notice how most of the options are No Cost (NC) - very interesting!

Cool to see the 326HP on the sticker.

That was crank HP back then, right? Not RWHP?

Correct, 326 was crank HP. From my observation, GTs usually put down 290-310 at the rear wheels in stock form.

This GT came with D90's, PSD, Air Bags and RDK according to the sticker - or am I drinking too early?

Wouldn't be surprised if the window sticker is somebody's re-creation. Andrew Olsen posted a PowerPoint file several years ago that was spot-on as far as font and logos - but getting the data correct would require very specific knowledge of the car itself along with model year data. This one looks like a re-creation made using a 90-91GT as a guide, not realizing the finer points not shared with the 89.

Has GTS mirrors and Cup II wheels. Per Roger's comment, I did not think the D90 wheels were available until 1990.

With a 928, you could order it anyway you liked, of course.
