What a shame it is a five speed.

Wow nice find - the engine bay looks a little tired for 15K though - must never have been cleaned..!
Funky hose or rubber gasket laying above the radiator - mine doesn't look like that..?

The console armrest looks interesting - assume thats the phone...

Still its rare - low miles looks to be in nice condition and an MT!

$60K - I like these GTS prices! will it go for that though!

Exterior is a 10, but the engine could use a wipe and the interior color is a let down to me. I'm surprised that wilhoit would show the engine looking like that.

I was puzzled by that console as well. It appears to have been cut down in half to make room for the phone. I wonder what that black square is below the lid.

I think the lighting doesn't help the color. I'm sure it's nicer than that in person.

Paul,
Thats the standard console when you have the phone option from the factory.
The square is a grill for the speaker for hands free I guess.
I have always wanted to know what the switch is for????

Typical Willhoit car.

He finds quite amazingly low mileage 928's and always asks top dollar. Don't know if he actually gets it.

My car has this console too, the phone is long gone but it is much better than the standard console.
The arm rests better on the console and the little compartment is good for all kinds of things. The other side of the console is good for glasses, cell...

Funny thing is that the phone was state of the art back in 95 and now that is the only thing that looks dated in that interior. Have you seen the size of that thing

If I would be looking around for another 928, this is what I would by (for half the price). http://mobile.de/SIDEBzPj8Quu6QCpdeS...1111199912412&

The black thingy next to the phone is the switch for turning it on.

Matt,
Thanks - you restored my faith in humour - either others decided to ignore my comment or it went over there heads.
My dream is to convert all 5 speeds to auto's.
Then we would have some really serious cars out there.
Roger
