Congradulations, sounds like a very good deal. Welcome to the asylum where the inmates are in charge

I am flying out ther next Sun to pick it up and drive it home. Very excited.
Hey how about an update on this fine example of a GTS, and maybe a few pictures. One of my fellow 928ers is selling his 1994 primo 928 GTS with under 18K miles. It looks like it just came off the showroom. BTW my favorite color, Guards Red

Picked up the GTS on Sun, it now has 23,000 miles.

Guards Red, very good condition. Small discoloration on right back seat, pictograms difficult to read on center buttons for windows, other than that perfect. No scratches. no cracks in the interior, evrything seems to work.

It drives great. Solid. Very different experience than my '03 M5. Controls have a surpising heft to them. Car is quicker than I expected too. Thought it would be substantially slower than the M5, but I think the GTS might keep it close in a race.

I am going out of town this weekend, and right now the car is splotched with lots of dead yellow bugs, kinda red with polka dots. I will detail it and take pics next weekend. Be happy to post them. My first Porsche, and I am very happy. I also have a deposit down for a TT cab and this makes me even more anxious to get it.

I'm sorry. Put a thousand miles on it already. I will try and take some pics. Always into using my toys more than I am into pampering and photographing them.

Here are some from when I picked the car up.

Thanks. Always wanted a 5 spd. Not the fastest car out there, but it is a whole lot of fun.

Thanks for the link.

Although he is listing Excellence pricing for a 95 not a 94. Not that means much. The GTS is a great ride ad a 5 speed IMO is a must have.

The tranny leak is most likely the drive shaft seal they have a tendency to do that. Assuming it is slight one could probably live with it. Hopefully it will find a good home.
