For street use, I don't think rods are an issue. As to oil, mine burns perhaps 0.5 qt./1000. I don't flog it, but I don't baby it either.

For the record mine still does not burn oil. No need to top off oil with oil changes every 2500 to 3000 miles. HP and Torque are factory spec and the car has 63k miles.
looks to be in good condition. Love the sport seats.

Comments bad mouthing GTS's are always from people who don't own them but SURE DO WANT TO!
And can you blame a 928 owner for wanting a GTS! Best of the breed (despite a bit of oil use)! Only 400 imported and FAR less than that on the road today! Nearly as rare as hens teeth and everyone thinks they are some brand new Porsche they just haven't seen yet!

Due to the large oil capacity of the 928, the extra large oil filter, the oil cooling system and using synthetic oils, you really only need to change oil every 10K - or even longer.
I suggest you read Doug Hillary's oil thesis and start saving yourself some money:

You do oil changes that frequently?

It might be crazy waste of money to some. But it is a habit I got into driving 911's for so many years. The earlier 911's used a copper dry sump tank and the acids and condensation in the oil from sitting over the winter would eat away at the tank. I also flush all fluids every 2 years whether the car is driven or it is needed or not.
I know there is no reason to maintain these intervals any longer and I am less concerned about my Cayenne which recommends a 12k mile interval but I change it every 6-8000, just a habit i will always live by I guess.
If you think I am crazy the original owner of my GTS changed the oil every 750 miles. He owned the car until it had 42k miles on the odo.
One thing I like to check for with oil changes is evidence of any metal or internal damage. Something I have always preferred to do at least once a year.
