Keep 'em coming. I'm really looking for a 91 GT (wonder why?) But I'm sure others are interested by these pieces of trivia.

I think you need to be a member to post pictures unless you host them yourself.

You can send me the images and I'll post them for your. Send them to andrewmolson"at"yahoo.com. (I now don't post the @ symbol because I get too many troll emails.)

Just got a new ebay purchase!! The offical Porsche north america salesman pocket guide. Very cool info on all 1988 models including all prices with options and their prices! Pic attached! Its not a very good pic, but has some great info on it. Its funny that sport seats were a no cost option? I wonder why more people didn't order them?

Default DIY Window sticker

Found my 1991 window sticker. Exact same equipmet - just a different color.

MSRP was $80,800! Wow! That's expensive.

I thought I would never fine one, so I started making my own. You're welcome to use my file. It's a PowerPoint file. I used a DotMatrix font for the various descriptions. It's not the perfect font, but it's what i could find. Ideally you'd want a fixed-width 8-pin dot matrix font. I found a couple on the web but they weren't free, so I passed. You will need to fill it out for your own car obviously, and please don't flame me for not knowing my color code and interior code by heart yet - I'm working on it.

DIY Window Sticker!

Here the PPT file. DIY PORSCHE WINDOW STICKER.ppt
And here's the font. Basicdots.zip

Have fun!

1991 928 GT

Sorry, Keith, but the best I can do is that bottom right corner in Post #15. I probably pulled it out of an eBay listing, that's where I got most of them.

I wish it weren't so.

Okay so using this thread as a database & your PPT I made this! It looks much better in person, but I had to shrink it to send it!

Brian,
You got it my friend! To most unsuspecting victims, it will appear 100% original.

I changed several things...I didn't know the dealer number for Niello so I left it....same with the number just above the year in the left corner? The price didn't add up to exactly what my COA said, it was about $405 under? Changing the fuel mileage was hard, had to add some artwork to it... Is there anyway you could make the section with the standard equipment bigger? I had to leave off about 7 items from the standard list from 88? I tried making the font (7) smaller, but it didn't work?

Still, great work on a great program!! One bummer is when I saved the file it changed the font to something else, so it only looked original while I viewed-printed it...now the type is different..but i printed a bunch so its okay!

Brian-
You can try reducing the height of the box with the MPG info or you can also try reducing the line spacing in in the standard equipment list. Right now it's set at 1.15. 1.0 might gain you an extra line or two. Glad you like it.
