That GTS has some unusual front fender flares. Is it Euro or Japan?

The S4 does have a nice color.

I suspect Roger will be bidding on the '82 over the internet or phone.

Its ex Japanese car as it has real flares also. Swiss GTS had front flares but no rears.

@Fabio,

the S4 isn´t Rauchquarzmetallic.My S2 is rauchquarzmetallic and 84 or 85 was the last year for this optional colour.
Ít´s an colour of the 80´s.
A lot of Porschecars are now Black because People don´t like Rauchquarzmetallic and buyers spend 2-3000 € more for black cars so a cheap respray was a good deal for the seller.

Lol, I would pay to have my (metallic) black changed to rauchquarzmetallic - one of the very best 928 colors IMHO.

The S4 in the auction looks Cassirot to me.

Cheers,
Erling

That overhead view looks alot darker than the first pic I saw. It doesn't look like Rauschquarzmetalic from this angle. But now I see that it doesn't have a sunroof.

I´m 1,96 m and two of my 3 928 have no sunroof.A lot more room for my head!:-)The car is from swiss and sunroof was an expensive option.Swisspeople like to save money! ;-)

My 83 5 speed partscar has also no sunroof and no sidestrips.
A little aciddip and it´s the perfect racebody? ;-)

The photo really doesn't do justice to the S4's paint. Nice cars.

The guy (Boris) who has the B-J 928's was out to the shop Sunday and we spent 5 hrs or so discussing these cars. He made an offer on the Strosek, then after a very spirited....... OK, ***** OUT run in the black car he wanted to buy that as well. Seems like a decent and reliable person and we spent some time giving DR his props on his developments. I wish him luck in his ventures and look forward to doing business with him. BTW the GTS is extremely nice the Cassisrot not so much from what he says.

I caught a bit of it last night. What a flea market. GM was selling development stuff, a pope-mobile, a presidential limo used in films, an original Saturn, several replicas of 70s muscle cars. The ZR1 with hydraulic gyro leveling system was interesting, but who is going to maintain that bitch? I left when the Saturn showed up. The fare will get better I assume.

Is the BJ commision 10%?

The buyers premium listed on the site is 10%. Even worse.

Plus, I think the seller also pays a fee of 8%. You have to admit that BJ knows how to make money. I enjoyed seeing the cars (all 1000) but some of the vendor displays were more interesting. On Monday a fellow cranked up a GT40 and it was pure awesome.
