Thanks! I am located in Dayton Ohio and trust me, 928s are a rarity around here so it took me awhile to locate this one out of the Cincinnati area.

Hey everyone, thanks for the warm welcome!

Wow that looks great! Is that a powder coat or paint?

I will attempt to learn some of the work myself so wish me luck!

I really wanted one without spoilers as I find the stark minimalism and simple lines amazing. Thanks for the heads up about the rims as I was unsure what they are called.

Those wheels are affectionately called 'manhole covers' for the obvious reason. Get some int shots if you can.

Very nice, great combination of paint and interior colors. And you have most definitely come to the right place, so welcome!

Where is it held? Sounds fun. Honestly since I have become so enamored by the 928 over a couple years ago, I have seen only 3 on the roads around Dayton. See 911s, 944s and 924s fairly often though.

Nice car and a good year. A lot less crap to worry about with the OBs. And I agree, I like them without the rear spoiler (and the rubber side strips).

Drive it like you stole it and you'll have less repairs and leaks.

Hey thanks! I looooove that op-art interior in your photo! Have only seen those in photos and it always seems to be paired with that great shade of green.
Is that the only body color the op-art interior came with?
