Does such thing even exist? Do all manuals where there is both S4 and GT model designations on cover have PSD information on them? If yes, they're probably for '90 model year. These can be found from usual sources, 928 International, 928 Specialists & Devek.

I have an 89 owners manual that came with my GT..but it just shows the standard 89S4 5-sp and AT..no mention of the GT....so I don't know if one specifically for the GT exists.

On a side note, there is a Porsche Tech manual that outlines all the 89GT differences....Not large and not too expensive if you can find it. Got mine at Devek Days a couple of years ago for around $8.

Later,
Tom

I am with Tom M, you are looking for the holy grail.....and it does not exist. Even the sales literature was very late in covering the GT, I have never come across any '89 GT literature, it was all S4 as far as I can tell. One of the reasons you really needed to know your option numbers to determine if you had an 89GT.

Gretch,

I read this book on the plane yesterday. The holy grail is in the louvre in paris underneath some little pyramid sticking out of the marble floor under the glass main entrance. Maybe there are '89 GT owner's manuals there too.

I doubt it, the Germans would have NEVER left it there......The holy grail maybe, the 89GT owner's manual? Never.
