Cool but flawed.

Dish wheels did not appear until 1983 (I think), and they show them as of 1980.

1987 S4 did not have a mast antenna on roof.

928 SE is missing.

GTS had Aero mirrors.

My 81 came with the flat dish wheels as part of the competition package.

Also incorrect rear quarters for the GTS.

Interesting that they chose to show two 4-door proto's and no real GTS's.
I like how they call out the S3

He responded. He was concerned about the S3 comment, whether it was intended as sarcasm, but I explained about how the S3 designation was never used for the 928. I didn't know if it was sarcastic or not, so I didn't say. I also explained about there being no GTS actually shown in the poster, him having used the S4 for the 92 GTS.

He is making some chages in the poster. Anyone want to suggest some more?

He made all the changes I suggested and those suggested on this thread, except I think he took the S3 comment as a change and made that too. I think it is pretty neat as modified; so I bought two of them.

That incredible responsiveness deserves encouragement, so I just ordered one. Heck, if any more fixes are spotted, it will make mine more of a collector's item! FWIW, I've shipped a lot of stuff to family in Oz, so know that his shipping charge is a true bargain.

I messaged the guy apologizing for posting it here and him copping a few emails with corrections required but he was happy that he could make the poster more accurate. Well done.
