Default Automobile Magazine 928 Article

Automobile Magazines September 2009 issue has a neat article about the 928 and its collectibility.

Has anyone else read it?

I will try and scan it and post it. I am not the greatest at that type of thing.

Beware of copyright infringement. Rlist is very picky in this regard.

I love it. Someone in the comments after the article links a video to Bill Ball's burnout.

Its all a part of a evil plot to make everyone in America want to buy an old 928, causing the prices to go higher and higher and.... (as he rubs his hands together)

The article reads like a high school term paper, a cut and paste sampling of 928 books and articles. OTOH, any news is good news!


Is the car's direction an editorial (on S4s)?

"Porsche stylist Anatole Lapine added to the spectacle by suggesting a glossy white paint finish for the intake runners."

Really? I'm not sure how that would look...

The white intake on a an early spider might look pretty good, it would give the engine a sanitary look, then take that to the next level they would paint the intake red for an S version
