I saw one of those kits several months ago. The owner said the hatch is heavier than stock!

This thing is flat *** ricey and ugly.
A stock late version GTS is a much better looking car.

I suppose ya probably think 911's are overgrown Beetles, too, eh?


I like the Koenig 928. Very much an 80's car. But I think I'll stick with my pinto just fine, thank you!

I know the car, and have met the owner, as he lives in the Bay Area It started life, IIRC, and as innocent '84 928. Its even better in person

The real question is whether is still running a 928 power plant or a chevy engine...

Can't really tell from the website...

ohh.. and that is not the nicest 928 I have seen... the nicest I have seen was a 1995 GTS all stock but for the wheels... 3 piece 3.6 C2 Turbo wheels... that was one sweet ride...

Some cars are not worth messing up with it... can't beat stock looks on the lasts of the 928...

The finish looks very good indeed, but with those doors it looks more like a Ferrari-wannabe than a "enhanced" Porsche.

Just for everyone's information, it is still a Porsche motor but with many horsepower enhancements. It will actually be on display this Friday night from 6-9 PM at Akkurat Performance Group (www.AkkuratPGI.com) As another FYI, the car is for sale.
