Commissioned by Ferdinand Porsche to create a production-ready
concept for a new model, Ernst Fuhrmann began a design study in
1971 that ultimately gave birth to the Porsche 928. This was the
company's first true clean-sheet design-unlike its predecessors,
which evolved from earlier collaborations or adaptations. The 356
shared roots with the Volkswagen Beetle, the 911 evolved from the
356, the 914 was a joint venture with Volkswagen intended to
replace the Karmann Ghia and 912, and the 924 originated from a
shelved Volkswagen-Audi project. For the 928, Porsche engineers
pursued a high-displacement powerplant, and early prototypes
featured a 5.0-liter V8 engine producing 300 PS (220 kW; 300 hp).

928 GTS was originally built for the European market and first
delivered to Italy before being acquired by Hedon Motors. Finished
in Polar Silver Metallic (L92E) over a black leather interior with
supple leather seating (option 980), it features Porsche's
5.4-liter V8 engine paired with a five-speed manual transaxle and
limited-slip differential. According to the included build
documentation, this example served as an exhibition vehicle and was
uniquely specified without a sunroof. Factory equipment includes
17-inch Cup 1 wheels, sport shocks, power-adjustable front sport
seats, pop-up headlights, a CD stereo, and air conditioning.
GTS-specific details consist of a body-colored rear spoiler,
Cup-style mirrors, GTS badging, a twin exhaust outlet, and a red
reflective panel between the taillights. Of the 41 exhibition 928
GTS models produced, only seven were built spec, manual with
sunroof delete, making this a particularly rare and desirable
collector example. The car was imported and titled in North
Carolina in July 2023. This 928 is accompanied by extensive
documentation, which will be made available upon an in-person
discussion and a serious offer. It represents a rare
collector-grade example of a clean, well-preserved, and fully
drivable Porsche 928-a true standout that would be difficult to
duplicate. For immediate assistance Call or Text Cyrus Klaesi at
