Default Your absolute perfect 928 build-sheet and options?

We all have the 928 we want, but what about one we've coveted for a while. Here's my build sheet:

1987/88 Cassisrot/burgundy. 5 speed, LSD, no rear air, no sunroof. Sport shocks, non-heated sport seats, polished CS or D-90 wheels. Mods would be X pipe and/or RMB, rear wiper delete, painted wing, short shifter, red LED gauges, better stereo, and maybe a SC screw job, but maybe not. Might even roll the fenders and put some fatter wheels/tires.

That's what I shopped for before buying. Never came across one that was close. Found a few 84-86s, and only one 5 speed, but not the whole package. What are your wishes? No fair saying the cliche 'I got the perfect 928 already'.

With a few changes, that i plan to do in the next year or two, i have it. My euro has the full leather, lsd, and optional 2.54 auto. Only on a few sections of certain roads do i think a 5 speed would be better. Most of the time shifting is just a pain.

The only thing I wished it had is the gts hip bump.

I almost have all the parts for it. I had to trade a much better pedigreed car to H to get what I wanted so I wouldn't sully a great original car body.

The 86 I have has no rub strips, it will have no sunroof. GTS brakes, SS brake lines, S4 bumper plus Valence, and a S4-like rear, though it will not look exactly like an S4. Black wheels, Tinted windows, Champagne interior with quite light (for me) colors in the Gun metal Grey Spectrum for the leather. Redone center console, and glowing gauges, but not too garish. But every single decision made with a 3100 pound street weight goal. Ultimatley, a 7.0L Big Valve motor, but for the time being it will be a boosted 5.0L with a few tweeks.

Koni hypercoil suspension, bigger sways, and 9.5 or 10" fronts, with 11" rears.

My perfect 928:

1986.5 black or silver with black interior, 5spd, lsd, turbo twists and a supercharger

I still like mine, it is a good first 928.

This sounds tasty too. Although with that setup, I'd like some kind of retro phone dial wheels. Keep em coming.
