For those that can't find (or afford) the book...
saphriel has posted a nice overview over at Flat-6.net.

Tarek,
I completely agree with you on the photo that PorKen posted. I even think it looks like a the more modern version of the early Z (was it a 240z?) that Nissan made in the 90s.
Porken,
Thanks for posting the link to this information on the Projekt 928...wonderful stuff.
I found the Project 928 book for $199.00 in my recent Internet search. Now, I am NOT one to openly advocate blatant disregard of the author and publisher copyrights. However, I'm secretly hoping that a 928 enthusiast somewhere on the planet will convert the contents of this out-of-print publication to PDF or other format (e.g., jpeg) and distibutes it for a reasonable sum (e.g., cost of the blank CD-R...perhaps) to those of us who'd rather spend that sum on maintenance or upgrades to our vehicles Who know, perhaps "Saphriel" from the Flat-six.net forum will oblige?
Best,
TUK

There's 3 copies on Barnes and Noble including a German language version. Cheapest is $211.76, not bad! Two others for $367.50. The English version is "Project 928", the German version is "Projekt 928".

Those prices are incredible ! I must have really scored when I purchased mine on eBay about 5 months ago. I bought the German language version for only $70 and it was in close to pristine condition.
The photos showing the early hood design with air intakes along the side of the hood are pretty neat.

I was even luckier - I got my English language version for Christmas a few years ago. I'll keep it forever - unless I become really broke and need to sell it to buy food and/or shelter.

This is where you can see how far ahead of it's time the 928 really was... Don't all the others look really, really old by comparison?
