I'd never seen this^^^ pic before. Where's it from? What's the story behind it?
Mark Anderson came into a motherlode of factory brochures, that pic was in the '92 928GTS brochure. Which is amusing because it is an S4 body.

Here's the centerfold from that brochure, 'scuse the digital staples in its bellybutton:

And for those who has never seen it, here's the link of the video of the photo shoot:

Video shows how pictures were taken for the 1992 model year. Both European and US models were shot at same location in Italy.

Nice video.
And nice brochure too (I have one).

Just realized that the early front brake rotor slots were designed for the phone dials. (Yes, people say I'm a little slow )
