Up for auction is this "Exceptionally Rare" 1995 Porsche 928gts. This was the final year of production for the Porsche 928gts. Ferdinand Porsche (owner of the company) reportedly drove one of these cars. The color is "Polar Silver." It has a black leather interior. It also has an electric sunroof. There were only 77 1995 Porsche 928gts cars produced. This car is Production #13 of 77. It is Serial #73. Only 9 of the 77 cars produced came in the color "Polar Silver." Only 6 of those 9 cars came in with the Automatic Transmission. It has 72871 miles. The engine is a 345 HP, 5.4L 32 valve V8. This car is in "amazing" condition and has a lot of extras you won't find on any other Porsche 928gts.
This car comes with Chromed Techart wheels (Germany) & centercaps. The front wheels are 8.5 x 18. The rear wheels are 10.5 x 18. They were both purchased and professionally chromed by "Wheel Enhancement" out of California. The wheels have four (4) Michelin Pilot Sport wheels on them with less than 600 miles on them. The front tires are 225/40 ZR18's. The rears are 295/30 ZR18's. The rear tires are very wide and completely underneath the body with no rub issues on the front or rear. This gives the car a very powerful and menacing appearance. It is a very cool look! I get compliments on this car every time I take it out in public.
The soundsystem includes a Alpine CDA9885 radio/CD player, and it is set up with an IPOD connecter hidden in the center console. All 10 of the factory speakers have been upgraded to MB Quart (German) speakers, along with a MB Quart Subwoofer. It comes with a Soundstream Van Gogh (VGA800.5) Amp that powers the system. This is an 800 Watt 5 Channel Amplifier, that has a very low Total Harmonic Distortion Level of .02%. This is the cleanest and the most crisp sound I have ever heard from a car stereo. The stereo has a complete system of MB Quart Crossovers set up to get the right frequencies to the right speakers. The MB Quart Subwoofer, MB Quart Crossovers, and the Soundstream Amp are all housed in the rear hatchback area in a professional cabinet that matches the black leather in the vehicle. This professional cabinet includes a discrete switch for black light illumination if desired. All of this was professional installed. No corners were cut, because I wanted it perfect. The car has also been equipped with a discrete (hidden) cable for connection of your radar detector to the visor.
Both factory front seats have been replaced with Black Leather Recaro adjustable seats with lateral and thigh support. They were just installed last year, and still look brand new. The car has been driven less than 500 miles since they were installed. They are "much" more comfortable than the original factory seats, and much sportier looking as well. They are fully adjustable. Recaro makes the best leather seats, and that is why I selected them for this car. The entire leather interior of the car is in "beautiful condition."
Mechanically, the car runs exceptionally well. It is very smooth with powerful throttle response. The "Timing Belt" (a critical element of these cars costing about $1000.00 parts + labor) was just replaced in June of last year. It has less than 500 miles on this new timing belt. The car battery was replaced in June of last year. This car has been "very well" taken care of. It has always been garaged, is rarely driven, and has been regularly maintained via service from Jones' Autowerks, Inc. (in San Antonio, TX). I have receipts documenting maintenance. I have owned this car since 2004. This vehicle can be inspected prior to sale at the buyers discretion to verify the condition of the car. The oil was changed less than 500 miles ago (Castrol GTX 20W50). The AC blows cold.
This is the nicest Porsche 928gts that I have ever seen, inside and out. The Porsche 928 "gts" is a very rare car anyway, but the 1995 928gts is the rarest and most desirable of all. It was the final year of production and represented the ultimate refinement of this model. Again, there were only 77 of these cars built, and this one was #13. I am selling this car because I am getting older and need to downsize my fine European car collection. This car is in superb driving condition, and it is ready to go and drive "now." Maintenance is up to date.
Thanks for looking. If you have personal questions, please let me know. I am very proud of this car, and if you are looking for a Porsche 928gts, you won't find one better, as the pictures illustrate. Pictures of the excellent black leather interior on this car will be posted shortly.

Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'
Mon, 16 Jun 2014Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
Lots of new cars were unveiled in Munich this week. Here's what you might've missed
Thu, Sep 9 2021The 2021 Munich Auto Show is happening this week and due to ongoing corporate travel restrictions, we remained firmly planted on this continent. So, although we can't tell you exactly what it's like inside the futuristic new Mercedes EQE electric sedan or fully appreciate the funky Volkswagen ID.Life concept, there's no shortage of details and analysis to provide. Obviously, as Germany's premier auto show in 2021, the cars unveiled were primarily from the German brands. We also focused mostly on the cars that might actually make their way to the United States, or at least inspire those that will. 2023 Mercedes-Benz EQE is an electric alternative to the E-Class While the EQS paved the way for Mercedes' electrified future, much like the S-Class before it, the EQE stands to be the car that will move in far greater numbers -- much like the E-Class before it. Mercedes-Benz EQE 350 View 12 Photos Mercedes-Maybach EQS Concept shows SUV future of the flagship brand Opulence will still have a place in an electrified future, as Maybach gets into the EQ game with a grand electric SUV. Mercedes-Maybach EQS Concept View 4 Photos Volkswagen ID.Life concept previews the city car's high-riding EV future Well, isn't this adorable? Though perhaps a tad derivative of the Honda E, Volkswagen's blocky little crossover EV nevertheless represents a handsome new direction for VW design. We like this better than the rounded looks of the current ID.3 and ID.4. 2021 Volkswagen ID.Life concept View 20 Photos BMW i Vision Circular is a 100% recycled and recyclable hatch Behold, the next BMW 3 Series! Just kidding. Besides this, BMW displayed cars in person for the first time that it had previously only unveiled on the interwebs, including the new 2 Series and revised iX3. It also unveiled some bikes. BMW i Vision Circular Concept View 63 Photos Audi's GrandSphere concept was designed as a road-going private jet Does Audi know what a sphere is? Cause this isn't anything like one. Still, it's quite a handsome thing, and as one of three Sphere-branded concepts, previews the next direction of Audi design (which is pleasantly reminiscent of two-decade-old Mazda design). No complaints here. 2021 Audi GrandSphere concept View 26 Photos Porsche Mission R is a 1,000-horsepower electric monster Just like the Mission E previewed the Taycan, this apparently previews another future car.
Porsche announces plan to replace 911 GT3 engines
Wed, 19 Mar 2014About a month back, we reported that Porsche was suspending delivery of its 911 GT3 due to reported incidents of the engine bursting into flames. A few days later, Porsche told owners of the new track-ready models not to drive their cars and had their local dealers pick up the cars in question. Just a couple of days ago, we reported that Porsche was working on a fix, and now we have the official details.
Following an internal investigation prompted by two such incidents, Porsche has confirmed that is has identified the problem as resulting "from a loosened screw joint on the connecting rod." The loose connecting rod, Porsche found, damaged the crankcase, which in turn resulted in oil leaking and then - in at least two cases - igniting.
Our source is unaware of Porsche being contacted by GT3 owners concerned about the impact of a replacement engine on their car's collectibility or resale value.
