Can't wait to get it!

That will go up on my wall with all the other 928 Pano covers from the past.

Love it; cannot wait to get it. With 000 article and the other shark specific things coming out, it looks like the 40th is indeed the year of the shark!

First glance I really liked the cover artwork, but now it's bothering me because the front corner is incorrect (for either original or late body).

The horizontal break line along the side of the car is supposed to end at the top surface of the front bumper cover.
The artist depicts it much lower, ending at a near-vertical edge that isn't actually there.
Simplified, the front corner is supposed to be a triangle, not a trapezoid.

Jim - the cover picture is actually a clipped segment of one of the earlier prototype renderings when the 928 was first being designed. I recognized the artwork, and the whole picture can be found in issue 1 of 000, which issue has a very extensive historical write up of the 928, and includes many artists design renderings of prototypes that never made it to final form. Good eye on that front corner.

OK... who's gonna have some 928 40 stickers made? I have the 911/50 sticker on my 911. Something with a bit of Pascha would be perfect.
