Try parts of Utah that offer straight empty roads as far as you can not only see, but imagine, with no traffic at all but with a rookie HP bear parked behind a bush in the middle of that expanse of road with a radar gun saving the world from agility, efficiency, self reliance, and happiness. .

where will you be going to in the US? DEVEK in Redwood City CA always has a line on 928s.
Chuck: I am in Mill Creek also. I am trying to start a Sat AM coffee like they do in Orange county. Is you car street legal?

Thank you for all your feedback.
The (removable) stripe is not green, but yellow (hard to see on the website photograph), the same yellow as the brake calipers, the color band on the PORSCHE GT2 steering wheel, and (nearly) the color of the GEMBALLA Instrument console. I thought some yellow would be a nice contrast to the black exterior and black interior.
Everything is TÜV approved (this is why a original PORSCHE steering wheel was used). The moonroof is fixed in position, more headroom than the original, movable sunroof.
What I meant with "somewhat slow" is when the car goes about 150 MPH it feels like driving a slow truck.

He calls the car slow . . . on the autobahn. For some reason I can't really take this question seriously. 
Must be a Ferrari troll.
If you are serious, you should sell that GTS and get something faster (and not move here in the first place).

The process of Federalization is a long and rather expensive task. The labs which are certified to do it could be working on any number of very exotic expensive cars or the GTS and their fees reflect that ! You would be required to add on front and rear sidemarker lights , swap headlights , AND SWAP the dash as well as many other details. As referenced the last "conversion" was more than $10,000 and the owner had another GTS from which he borrowed many parts....like the dash. The certified lab picks up the car from the dock you pay them a lot of money and many months later you get a call to come down and pick up your car.
