About Porsche's 928 GTS Coupe Model:
Porsche had to consider consumer product changes to supplement the
slow sales of their sporty, but well-proven 911 series, during the
1970's. Many in-house designers, including Ferdinand Porsche
himself, wished to add a luxury model to the lineup worthy of grand
touring status. It would carry a front-engine, all-aluminum V8 with
rear-wheel-drive through a transaxle, along with aluminum front end
and doors to produce a vehicle with near perfect 50/50 weight
distribution. The resulting advanced design would become the
Porsche 928, and in 1978 become the first car in a sports car
platform to win the European Car of the Year, an award usually
reserved for luxury sedans in previous years. The performance was
instantly admirable with ample power and a balanced feel,
surrounded with very comfortable interior cabin with high end
luxury appointments.
As with all things Porsche, changes were made year after year to
perfect and improve the 928. Engine displacement slowly grew from
the original 4.5L to a mighty 5.4L by early 1993, as did the
horsepower and overall performance. The final variant was named the
928 GTS, which is now hailed as the finest example collectors and
enthusiasts seek out today. Produced only from 1993 through the end
of production in 1995, they offered 345 horsepower and 369 ft. lbs.
of torque with higher compression engine, revised camshaft, better
pistons and rings, refined exterior body lines and exterior
mirrors, larger rear fenders to accommodate wider 17" Cup II
wheels, and bigger front brakes. They would be the best Porsche had
to offer in both performance and luxury touring. Only 406 GTS cars
would grace North American soil, largely due to the sky high price
when new. Of these, only 77 Porsche 928's mark the final year of
production!

This example was ordered new by Champion Porsche in Pompano Beach,
Florida and stayed in their private collection through the summer
of 2002. It was exercised regularly and serviced in their world
renowned service shop, including its first timing belt replacement
in June 2000 at 8,023 miles. The Porsche then traveled to Wayne, PA
in 2002 when it was sold to its second owner with 9,461 miles on
the odometer. Service work would now fall into the careful hands of
Don Galbraith Motoring, Inc of Devon, PA. This included mostly
oil/filter changes along with a brake fluid flush at 10,567 miles
in May 2004.
Ownership would change again in March of 2005 where the example
would join a private collection in New York, then later finding its
way to Willhoit Enterprises in Springfield, MO in 2015. Having sat
largely idle for a number of years, Import Specialists, also
located in Springfield, MO, were commissioned to fully inspect and
bring this beautiful 928 to proper running operation. At 11,824
miles in November 2015, the fuel system was flushed and received a
new fuel filter, engine oil/filter changed, new air filter fitted,
and the ABS relay was replaced along with a new PSM pump assembly
installed and bleeding the entire brake system. After some
exercise, Import Specialists replaced the fuel pressure regulator
and fuel pressure damper at 11,943 miles in July 2016 to further
improve performance. This gorgeous Porsche 928 has graced only two
other museum collections since and continues to impress all who see
it firsthand!
Showing only 12,068 miles on the odometer today, it will come with
all past service records, all original books and manuals, Porsche
Certificate of Authenticity, a clean CarFax report, one key,
original tool kit, cargo cover and netting, untouched spare tire,
and factory compressor. This particular 928 represents one of only
47 examples fitted with the automatic transmission in 1995, along
with, the addition of being dressed in the most desirable of color
combinations. Porsche collectors, take notice! Examples as fine as
the one offered here simply do not come onto the market very often
like this one!
