You have to be careful these days. My first 928 turned out to be a Chinese knock-off. The only thing that gave it away was that it said "PORNSCHE" on the rear bumper. I was none the wiser until I found out that "ROMEX" isn't a real watch maker either.

Can someone post a hi res image of one so I can see exactly what's on it? Image above is the first I'd seen of one, and it's a letdown. I was thinking of getting one...

If you have a really nice 928...it's very nice to have a COA too. For car shows, I'd think it to be essential.
The one I got listed the original options as shipped and other info. (and it looks a heck of a lot nicer than the sticker under your deck carpet). Admittedly, not cheap paper but, heh! It's the real Porsche thing.
The COA I received is totally accurate and helpful. Will I get them for all of my P-cars? Probably not right away. I need a new set of spark plug wires more right now.

Funny, I was just about to post that link. After going round and round with them for a few weeks, I gave up.
In fairness I must say I had another one on my former 90GT and it was 100% accurate. So I guess in a way, the COA is just like the car, they can both be a crapshoot!
