I've never seen the Psychadellic interior in brown/burgandy. Kinda cool. Looks like a Euro Kermit - Hell, even the license plate is similar! LOL! Ribbit!

I think I've just lost my mind...so far I've managed not to lose my wallet [bid~]! Urk-

-The very first 928 I ever saw...sitting on a driveway on Grosse Ile, Michigan in the early summer of 1978 looked like that but was silver....

That's not stock. It is an ROW car, but it has had the later S spoilers added. The rear has the US side marker lights, but not the front.

N!

I hate it when someone takes a care like this and puts those ridiculous spoilers all over it. There are no cooling ducts and the molding does not match. Now this thing has a pop up sun roof which totally destroyed the car. The interior looks as though it can be brought back to great condition, but it is a crying shame as to what has been done to this car. Even with 100K+, without all this molestation, the car would have been worth some good money. I guess it could be brought back to original, but it won't be cheap and the roof will be near impossible to redo. BONEHEADS!!!

Guys,

It might be my old eyes but I do not see a sunroof. I see some glare in the first picture but I think looking at the others, I don't think it has one. I aggree about the spoilers though

I'm an airline pilot. I have good eyes. Certified by the government, by the way.

-I didn't see that pop-up sunroof!

Good catch. At the same time, I'm not totally against such a part... on my "historically insignificant" '85. OH k...now I want to know where he got it....

Just noticed there's no center armrest/cassette holder. Intersting. I thought they all had that.

It was an option for some years even though most US cars have it. Non-S Euros during the S years generally don't have it.

My 78 US doesn't have it. Too bad about the sunroof on that car, the rest looks forgivable. I wouldn't mind having that transaxle though....
