Last 5-speed GTS Produced
It is possible that the blue GTS shown at the 25th anniversary party in Stuttgart was the very last one. However, this is pure speculation on my part at this time. Maybe Rich or any of the other attendees might be able to give more details about that one.

Factory's blue GTS 5sp's VIN is way to small for last GTS. Jörg Austen's book lists VIN 00001-00459 for ROW and 20001-20137 for US as range in '95. That would mean they did over 170 ROW automatics after last ROW 5sp and probably several US models also.
Pic stolen from JE928Sx4's website.
low miler, don't expect to see that blue GTS or any other 928 on display in factory museum. There isn't much space and rarely if ever there is any 928 related material on display other than few small models (not for sale).
