Looking at this early manual 928 on EBAY.
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PORSCHE-92...-/131436282744
Just wondering whether this can possibly be an 'S' and not an 'S2' since it's a 1984 model. Unfortunately there's no engine bay pictures. Are there any interior/exterior cues?

The registration date was late 84 so unless it was sitting on the show room floor for a long time more than likely an S2. An engine pic would tell all.
Someone removed the two side parts of the rear spoiler - possible because of corrosion and had it painted - check with a magnet.

Does it have the "Do It Yourself" manual transmission, or the superior "Fully Equipped by Porsche" Automatic Transmission?

Lack of ext antenna in back and newer style seats would tend to indicate S2 (possibly an 85) Older/lesser style speakers ?? Many 84's still have older style pistons so the year is a mixed bad anyways along with older chip in brain. -------------- My guess on the pics an 84, vin would say for sure. Nice color.
