Default Supertune 928, Heaps of breakdowns, so much fun to repair!

I just went when I saw this Supertune 928 at the Porsche Collectors Day at http://www.porscheclassiccentergelderland.nl/ today. I could not resist to buy this potential nightmare.

It is supposed to be a Porsche 928 with heaps of breakdowns, and is so much fun to repair. Tell me more anout that!

Yes, the car is mint and boxed!

Maybe if you have one that keeps breaking down the other one will run without problems?

That's the sort of thing my wife would buy for me as a cruel joke...

I do want my 928 hood to open forward like a Corvette!

Obviously, you never had a hood latch fail (both primary/secondary safety latch) at cruising speed. I have...so, the corvette hood design is actually pretty smart...if it does fail, going forward...no adverse results...if you are traveling at a high rate of speed in reverse and it fails...who cares...you're looking backwards anyway.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The experience of having my hood rip off at speed would be totally worth it!
