I actually thought the title of this thread was serious and I was going to throw out that last US GTS as most expensive 928, but this... WOW it is a complete affront to good taste and 928's and cars in general!

Shaving a 928 is one thing, takes it back to its roots.
Maybe wider hips, too, to accentuate.

But these graft-on remakes seem... shallow

Maybe one of the Chevy V-8 guys can buy that, stuff a Chevy engine and transmission into it, and call it a Camaro...

Wow the guy spent a lot of time on it by the looks.
I would not go that extreem on the body but who knows what kind of shape it was in when he got it. It may not have had fenders?

I would have to give him 2 thumbs up for custom work. I am not crazy about orange but the interior is like new

IMHO

When was the 928 made with a 3,5 liter engine ?
When did the 928 have ESP?

The exterior is .... no comment. (The word “Fuzzy” on the license plate describes it well!)

But the interior treatment gives a hint how good and modern the 928 interior could look if redone/restored tastefully.
