Your Next Car After the 928?
#526
Now that I think about it, while the Merc AMG GT probably is closest to what the 928 may have evolved into, it's the Jaguar F-Type that continues the 928's "best looking sports car rear end" legacy IMO.

i test drove the Jaguar and AMG GT both when I was looking.
I thought the Jaguar ride was more sports car than GT and the outward visibility in both was not as good as I like

Is Jaguar still using Lucas electrics though? That could be a deal breaker for me. I love the look of the AMG GT and the performance specs are amazing, but I once had an affair with the Jag XJS that went sour over the electrics. A friend of mine at the time had one and went through it with a fine tooth comb, replaced all the Lucas parts with AC Delco. Never had a problem with the car after that.

Sorry everyone. I have no idea at all what happened here, the site converted a pasted image to text for some reason and it won't let me edit or delete it.
MODERATORS: please delete my last post to this thread and do your best to figure out what went wrong here.

I'm going to try this again, even though I know Nate's seen one of these before, I still think the rear view of the Merc AMG-GT is about as close as you can get to a 928:

Mercedes AMG GT R
And for those of us who like to see what's up front:
Personally I plan to wait a few years and pick up one of these babies after it's depreciated out of the stratosphere. I made the mistake of buying a new 928 once when I was young, rich and stupid. I won't being doing that twice...

The AMG has beautiful hips jutting out from under the side-glass as shown in the picture.
The 928 has no hips at all, not even remotely. Its side-glass is flush with outside fender giving it a slabby, fatty, not sexy at all look compared to the AMG.
The 928 wished its rear looked half-as-good as the AMG's.
