Which I always found ironic as the GTS adverts seemed to feature Biff the yacht boy fresh off the croquet pitch with his fluffy sweater tied 'round his neck.

Hi

I have two....

EBAY special... "The Aircon just needs recharging"

And one from me...

When I go out in the morning (daily driver) and that HUGE V8 rumbles into life it puts a smile on my face, all day...

All the best Brett

Cynics and died-in-the-wool 911 and 356 fanatics tend to write the 928 off as a cross between a 924 and a Corvette. They're wrong. If you approach this car with an open mind, open the door, sit down, fire it up and drive it away, it will quite simply blow your mind. To get out of whatever you were driving and take the 928 for a spin is as liberating as your first ride on a motorcycle, your first kiss from a girl who knew how. You may frighten yourself, in a burst of unbridled enthusiasm, but the 928 won't. It's a rolling womb of whispering, humming, tactile assurances that everything on this particular road on this particular day is going to be all right. Dreamlike, you fly down the road like a bat out of hell with nothing more than the blurring of the trees and the moan of the engine to call your attention to the speedometer. This is grand touring, folks, and whatever it costs, it's worth it." - David E. Davis, Jr.

Can we make them up? How about......

My Dad used to sell these back in the day... One time when I was home on leave a new 928 was sitting in the middle of the showroom floor... sticker was $65K and change. I said you can buy a HOUSE with SIXTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS!!! My Dad replied... without skippin' a beat... "You could by a house... sure... but then you wouldnt own a Porsche 928..."

Never forgot that... probably THE reason I own one today... It was a great selling line Basically, GO BIG... or... GO HOME!!!
