Default Mystery car in Norway - is it a bastardized 928?
Sensitive people be warned...

This picture popped up in a generic discussion forum about abandoned cars If I am not mistaken, someone has tried to graft a Honda or something front on a 928... Too bad about the snow. I will try and search for some more info about this car.

Is it really a 928?

Long cold winters can do funny things to a persons mind. Whoever did that needs some help.

So dat's how one gets the modern projector beam headlights into a 928.

So now can we call it a Type-R?

That's not Porkens house, is it?

Norway isn't that big - your mission is to find this car!!! I need to visit some family there anyway, maybe I'll come help. Just need a floor to sleep on.

You must be referring to the pair of purebred Norwegian Elkhounds (Norsk Elghund) behind our fence.

Looks Photoshop-ed ... The red of the front fender is different and the shadow doesn't match where it meets the tire... Too bad too, I would have paid good money to import such fine craftsmanship.
