Default 928 GTS

Those poor 928 guys always get laughed at by the 'pure' 911 guys (the 944 guys are like, huh? what?).

I'm here to tell you that, personally, I think the 928 GTS is pretty badass. I saw a white one on the way to work the other day and they really are freakin' cool.

Not a fan of the earlier years, however.

I won't be steppin up to anything any time soon. I'm lucky to have what I have.

But if that's the car in your sig, I can imagine it's a blast. But, being the superficial kind of person I am, looks are the main thing. I really think the later model 928s have maintained their appeal.

I would only buy an OB.

It's the right kind of ugly.

the later models are like lipstick on a pig.

The OB's know they're pigs and they just sit there in the mud and look at you and say "What the **** YOU LOOKIN AT?"

Im the opposite, the GT/GTS look the best out of 928s.... But still not as good as a 951 IMHO.

I think it looks "better" but "better" is not what I want out of a car like that.

OB 928, WS6 Trans Am, MKII Supra-

all cars that are just ugly as sin, but are awesome in their ugliness.

well duh of course I'm going to agree with that.

but in the general GT car realm, the GT/GTS is probably the best IMNSHO.

Yes you can, I kinda like them too but they have no place on European roads, they're a 100% made for the American market it seems. I don't think I saw one this year. GTS are the nicest imo.
