Does anyone here recognize this 1989 5-speed I purchased last week?

DFWX.."The 928 unit-frame is not particularly rigid to begin with .." compared to what ? They are actually quite good much stiffer than the same vintage 911 and having seen many ,many wrecked ars they are extemely safe cars

On that note, an obituary was found related to this accident. Strong or not, a sudden stop is bad for the body.

Well obviously it isnt a GTS, though someone thought it was cool to add decals, shifter etc... doesn't looks so cool now unfortunately..
Interesting seats that might be slavageable - note the 8 way driver and 12 way passsenger - an unsual combo! Even if the leather isn't good if they are memory seats someone will want them... they look like non-sports seats to me though (esp with ~full electric)
Looks like once again the car did its job and protected the passenger compartment pretty well...
