you know if it wasn't for the very rare 5 spd version i would of searched longer for a 928 before i got the 944 Turbo. I want both cars, the problem is i'm really miffed at the idea of a Porsche having a limited amount of 5spd cars. You need a 928 and a 944T .. i need a 928 now. Have you noticed the early 928's tail lights? They peek out toward the corner so much that if you drive by it it's almost like they are looking at you. Similar to (i see you get out of way if i move to the next lane)

The early seats (both comfort and sport) are sorta square, but since I have not seen the movie I am not sure exactly what you are talking about.

I think the scene before this. Gary and Wyatt had these White jackets on.
A slushy was dropped on them from above in the mall. It may be the jackets shoved in the back.
