I was lucky to find a Canadian 89GT with heated sport seats and no rear AC

Did any of the Canadian 89 GTs have rear AC?

Thanks. I haven't identified S-KH 1035 for the moment but hope to do it in the future.

For the moment, I'm interested in very early US/Can versions. I feel that we may find something unusual.

Rob to the rescue. Thanks for that.
I think you've got everything that has been printed about the 928 in your library .....

Rob, do you also have this booklet?
And my next question is: Is there an equivalent for the USA?










This is S-JZ 5957, the car of the official pictures, and not a proper GT (no M28/47 and no M639).

I'm afraid I don't have that pamphlet. My collection of factory brochures is actually pretty slim- have mostly focused on the techinical and service documentation.

I have the USA equivalent for the 1990 S4 / GT (one booklet covers both models). I will gladly scan it if anyone wants a copy.

I did what I do, and now it's in good hands.

None of the fifteen Canadian '89 GTs had rear AC. All 15 had heated seats on both sides. I guess it's cold in Canada.
