I'd own the burgundy one in a heartbeat. It adds the option of carrying two (not too large) adults in the rear in relative comfort. Dare I say that the aerodynamics would be a bit better with the extended bodywork in the rear. With updated wheels, perhaps a kompressor, this would be a real head-turner.

On a positive note, that's a cool idea with the door configuration. Guess we know where Mazda may have gotten the RX-8 door configuartion idea.
+1 on that. That thing looks like the evil love child borne of a 928 and a Pacer.

This is by no means a display car. Some might be quite disappointed by its cosmetic condition.

More like +$200k.

Making those aluminum bodies and all of the related modifications was not cheap or easy.

WOW! That is really a great looking car. It looks like a chopped and lowered Cayenne.

Kurt I suggest starting another thread. This deserves to be seen by a broad audience.

That Panamera Wagon is antarctic blue, and needs an optional rally fun pack.

I completely forgot to post pics from the Monterey weekend. The car was far more finished than I imagined. It wasn't a rough prototype, rather it seemed ready for production.

We do not need a four door 928. What we need is a 2013 two door 928.
