I'm guessing (just a guess) that 928 GT R is talking about the US market Iris Blue GTS that had an accident history, and I'm also guessing that the '95 Iris Blue GTS in this thread above (shoved under a truck's bumper at night, when the headlights were up?) is a European market model.

I've got a '93 Polar Silver automatic, which we are completely freshening/updating the stock engine, which has been in a crate for many years. Will be installing new "updated" connecting rods, of course.

Transmission was rebuilt/updated (to "absorb" increased torque and horsepower) at ~75,000 miles by us.

Beautiful car, with ~100,000 miles. (The stock engine has been out for ~35,000 miles.)

This will be a no BS, no excuses, fresh GTS, built by the premier 928 shop in the country....Precision Motorwerks.

......And if someone wants a 6.5 Liter "stroker" built, instead of the stock 5.4, this would be the time to speak up.

Congrats on your acquisition!

Post more photos if you get the chance...

I made another thread where I will show all the process.
