The 928 model line began in 1977, as it first appeared at the Geneva Auto Show. With 911 sales in a slump and concerns over the current air-cooled mainstay not meeting US emission, the conceptualized 928 was looking as a possible replacement for the 911. Porsche AG?s then chairman, Herr Fuhrmann decided to try something different, and together with Ferry Porsche pushed forward as they approved the development of their new grand tourer. Over the decades, the 928 went through several evolutions in its 18-year run. Some of these running changes included larger displacement engines, wheels, suspension enhancements as well as interior and exterior cosmetics. The final version, the GTS model was the best of the best, and was introduced in 1993. This AutoBahn Blitzer utilizes a 5.4 litre 4 valve engine rated at 350 hp with sport suspension, wide Cup wheels, Cup mirrors, front and rear spoilers and bulgy rear fender wells. The 928 has often been described as the ?German Muscle Car?

Offered here is an excellent example of Porsche?s original luxury Grand Touring car in elegant Grand Prix White with a tan leather interior and optional rear air conditioning. The special order automatic transmission makes it a delight to drive for both ladies and men alike. The final evolution of the German engineered 928 GTS combines the sporty handling of the 911 with the high speed road manors of a GT touring car and the luxury and refinements of top-of-the-line luxury saloons. The GTS is truly a forthright GT car by all definitions.
