Considering the low milage I dont find it very appealing.

Most likely, I doubt the dealership knows any better but even if the owner opted to upgrade to a GTS bumper it's not all original paint anymore.

From the eBay listing:

Clean One Owner 928 Porsche! We purchased this beauty from a local individuals Estate sale. The vehicle is in prestine condition and has been garage kept its entire life. And Yes, this car only has 30,006 actual miles on it. This car has never been hit. No scratches, dings or dents. Paint is 100% original. Extra clean interior. Absolutely no rips, odors or abuse. This is truly a car thats worth collecting.

There is a good chance my next 928 will be this color, first one I've seen with this interior. No time frame on this purchase but I'm always perusing through the various for sale locations just in case the right one pops up.

I think they are a bit optimistic on their asking price, especially if the *** end needed work.

Very nice but not great car considering the milage.

The GTS bumper cover probably hide someting.
And no engine pics.

Kind of looks like it has been in a collision the spacing in the edges of the panels do not look even.

I have four observations ... it has got a hot post cover, the wheels are stained, the spare wheel has been badly scuffed .... and the man taking the photos for the ebay listing has baggy pants.

I've not seen an '88 with the Raff leather option either. Odd.

Actually, those seats look redone.

Ignition key looks like it's had more than 30k miles worth of key inserts.

Appears to have a new "Roger" hatch insert.


Overall looks like a good car but I'd want to look it over much further.

plus broken vent in the rear a/c, and sunbaked sunroof seal, and stained flat disk wheels. I don't trust the mileage. Or if correct, it shows neglect.

...or perhaps, he had the same idea as you did on 'Beachy' -only in reverse.

ummm... dealer notes: "passenger airbag"?!?

I like the full-option seats. But I suspect a broken odometer gear -it does look like more than 30k. TB/WP/TP candidate for sure.

S4 rear bumper cover on a GTS = possible rear collision? Different sand box, owner likes his car to be different?

I not sure that I disbelieve the mileage, but the car does show inconsistent wear/tear for that mileage. There's really no telling what a car has been through in 26 years... even if it hasn't been driven very often.
