The chance to purchase an 89GT in this condition is unlikely to occur again any time soon. One of the most respected 928 mechanics in the country just told me that someone could “search for years and not find another 89GT in this condition”. This car positively radiates pride of ownership. The condition of this 928 is beyond any other currently on the market. Go see the others, then come and be astounded by this one.

Being much lighter and sportier than the 928 GTS, the ’89 GT is the must have 928 for the true performance minded enthusiast.

Have seen this car in person and it is an absolute stunning example!

Bill Ball

WOW! This sure looks like the 89 GT that used to reside in Roseville and the SF Bay Area prior to that. Same color, wheels, GTS wing and mirrors, stereo upgrade. That car was once known as the "Seth" car, named after one of its more meticulous owners. The only thing that's throwing me off is the recent respray. Last time I saw this car about 2 years ago, if it is the same one, the paint was perfect. [EDIT: Checked the VIN - it's the same car I have known since 2002. Why the respray?]

Absolutely fabulous '89 GT. Love it.

Last January, about 8 months into my uber paranoid ownership of the former "seth car", I had the unfortunate circumstance of driving through ~30 seconds of light hail. Mind you, I hadn't driven the car in any rain whatsoever and planned on never driving this car in any inclement weather. On this occasion, no rain had been predicted. The sky had been hazy, but not overcast, throughout the day. Just before sunset, I had an errand to accomplish that I previously put off due to rain a few days earlier. I had already waited three days for the roads to dry. As I crested a grade on the 101 freeway, what appeared to be rain bathed the car and the road for no more than 30 seconds.
Long story, short...light hail chipped nearly every panel. No dings...just enough chips to screw an otherwise perfect 23 old original single stage Guards Red.
I called Greg Brown and he recommended a 928 knowledgeable, Porsche certified paint facility. The same one S4Ordie used, in fact.
In the process, I left the rub strips off and had the rear wiper properly deleted as well. Tons of new rubber seals and gaskets throughout. With the level of attention that was paid to the details in this rejuvenation process, the car is truly better than it was. Ask Greg Brown or Rob.
If I wasn't paranoid enough before, I am now. I check for mud flaps on every truck that drives in front of me. I now try to walk whenever possible.

Someone please save me from this example of 928 perfection that plagues me.

Hi Derek: Ah, that's a sad story, but you outdid yourself with the new paint. This is a glorious car.

Th Dude

Thanks, Bill.
Knowing what the 89GT represents in the grand 928 scheme, I felt entirely obligated to do justice by her.

SethW

Yes! Take care of my old girl! I loved, loved that car. I will never forget my ride home when I picked her up in Reno that first time. I'm glad to hear she got the respray that she deserved, that original paint was mint. It looks like you did some nice cleaning up in the engine, you are making me proud. I hope it goes to a Rennlister so I can see where she lands.

Nicole

I have known this car for many, many years, and am not aware of any 928 that was more pampered than this one. I'm sure the new owner will not be disappointed by it!

Th Dude

Thanks, Nicole. You are absolutely correct...there will be NO disappointments for anyone looking at this rare and clean beauty.
