Body color wheels are probably from factory Exclusive deparment. Similar option was available for '94 and '95 GTS with 8" Cup II wheels at front and about 1" wider fender made from steel. I'm not sure if this has special fenders or not. Might have as front wheel opening looks maybe little different than stock. Would really need to have stock and wide version side by side to see the difference.



Color looks to be same Oak Green Metallic as mine is. This would be at least 5th GTS with same color.



Has factory phone, rootwood, leather speaker surrounds, color cordinated speaker grilles at least.





Not really full leather but much more than what basic version has. Price is right I think if all is ok. Fact that it says export sale is always worrysome. This usually means car has some problems and seller wants to avoid warranty problems by selling it as far away as possible.

That is a very pretty car. I really like the color combination and the color-matched wheels.

Have 8" ET70 Cup II's waiting for exact same paint style once I find pair of 9" for rear. 8's are perfect fit with 4-5mm spacers and 245 rubber at front even with stock fenders. Looking at period Exclusive brochures I haven't been able to decide yet how outside lip is done. Is it painted silver like stock wheel or polished and clear coated? Think there was Arena Red '95 GTS in UK 928 Org pages with same kind of wheels but link to pics doesn't work anymore.

Too bad it's an auto.

Right. On '94 and '95 (I think) location changed to side of center tunnel below clove compartment.

This one has been around for quite some time now...

I've noticed that most european GTS's are full leather cars. It rare to see one with even a vinyl center console.

Like this one, for example:

Chuck Z has a GTS with factory painted black wheels and Tom (shaaark89) has a blue GT or S4 with factory painted D90s. You might want to check with them.

This is a weird listing. It shows one of my all time favorite 928s, but says these are not the actual pictures. In fact, these pics are many years old, and the car described here is supposed to be midnight blue. So I'm not sure how car and pictures really relate...

Todd, replace most with something like 10% and also change second sentence and it starts to make some sense. What you are saying would mean there are over 1000 GTS in ROW with full leather.

Total GTS production was 2831 of which 409 were US models. This leaves 2422 ROWs. Some hundreds of these were sold outside western Europe leaving maybe 2000 cars into what is currently EU. There is no way in hell more than 1000 of these have full leather interior. Most have leather seats and little piece of leather in doors above armrest and that's it. So almost all have vinyl dashes, center consoles, trunk sides, steering wheels etc. Fact that dash is different color than black doesn't make it to be leather. Every year dash, center console etc. were available in at least five or six other colors than black. All done in vinyl except in very few cars.

If in reality 200 ROW GTS have leather dashes even it would be large number compared to what is on market today. 1000 is at least 4 times too much. Go through all GTS ads at Mobile and Autoscout24 and list all cars you think has full leather. I bet you can't find 5 or 6 out of about 40 on sale at any given time which have any more leather than standard model.

Do not count that Auto Salon Singen car as one in pictures is not one they have for sale. They haven't had that special one in for years. They're just using same old pictures over and over again. Currently they list two GTS in their own web page and neither of these have full leather mentioned in text as far as I can tell. Neither has Albrex SC'd widebody they are selling.

Man, I've always lusted after the Sharks on mobile.de and their prices

Too bad it cost so damn much to get them back to the states

This pic is from '94 MY Exclusive department brochure. Wheels look like they're Cup I's.



After staring at it for long time I'd say rims are polished and lacquered or clearcoated. Painting center part of Cup II makes them look closer to Cup I wheels I think. Same brochure has 964 with those.

Didn't the encredible GT Tom F bought from Ca. have factory wheels something like this?
