If you can't find it at a news stand, can be ordered from Hemmings customer service department at 800-227-4373. Be sure to order the July edition of Sport & Exotic Car, as they have several publications.
For twice the money, you can get a year's subscription!

Anthony,
YOU are exactly correct - my SL is only 38 years old!! The 41 is a result of insufficient caffeine when I did the mental arithmetic early one morning!!! See you at VIR? (I'm going a week later than the usual NNJR event - this one's run by Carolina region).

Sorry for the off topic.

Went to a car show tonight more of a local gathering a couple towns over.One guy was looking over my 928 and after talking to him for a few minutes, he said he has been reading up on them lately.I asked him what he was reading and he said it was the Hemmings Sport & Exotic Car July issue,looks like that article is getting well known for the 928's.

Thanks Rich - I actually prefer to drive it over the 84 Euro or the 86 - probably has something to do with knowing everything that has ever gone wrong, been fixed or needs to be maintained to keep it 'happy'. Other than the initial service visits when i bought it, this car has never been wrenched on by anyone but me.
Congrats on the article, very nice...
Regards
Neil

Finally remembered to stop at a book store to see if I could find a copy. At 1st I only saw the August edition that is already out. Then hidden on the back of a lower shelf they had a few copies of the July edition. Great pics of a stunning shark and a very positive article too!

Gary ... thanks for the heads up. Hemmings was supposed to send me a few copies of the magazine but they haven't been delivered. I've been waiting until I saw the article and knew it was REAL before going public about it. I STILL HAVEN'T SEEN IT.
Hemmings contacted me in March, said they'd seen my GTS on a website and asked if they could feature my GTS in their magazine. It took a bit of thinking, what website? Oh, the one that I put up after the 2000 928 Owners Club OCIC ... and promptly forgot about. Well, the photos are still out there in cyberspace and caught their eye.
At first I didn't know if it was a scam, but after getting the forms to sign my likeness, GTS title (no, not really) to Hemmings, I figured it was legit.
Jeff, the west cost associate editor is a very skilled photographer and knows much about cars in general, but wasn't too familiar with the 928. He liked the idea of featuring a ONE OWNER Porsche 928 GTS. I spent a lot of time filling him in on the facts and history of the car and sent him some background information so he could accurately tell the story.
I took my camera and snapped a few photos while Jeff was doing his magic.
I hope it is a nice article.

You certainly deserve the recognition
