THE 928 GTS

The 928 debuted in 1977 as Porsche’s second water-cooled, front-engined model, following the earlier 924. Porsche executives might have hoped for better acclaim for the 928 while it was in production, with constant comparisons to the company’s air-cooled models, but later versions of the 928—notably the final GTS model, introduced in 1992—found appreciation as true driver’s cars. The 928’s driving dynamics were praised thanks to the transaxle arrangement that enabled a 50:50 weight distribution, offering sharp handling, while a 5.4-litre V-8 engine delivered an impressive 345 horsepower output.

THIS 928 GTS

The Porsche 928 GTS offered here left the factory finished in stunning Oak Green Metallic over a black leather interior, complemented by desirable factory options including the desirable manual gearbox, 17-inch Cup alloy wheels, air conditioning, heated seats, and a draped leather interior.

Delivered new in November 1992 to Miguel Ángel de la Fuente del Real of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, Spain, the car later moved with its first owner to the Costa del Sol, where it was maintained by C.S. Porsche Sportwagen Marbella (invoices available on file). The 928 remained in this single ownership until 2016, when it joined The Curated Collection. More recently, it became part of a distinguished private Porsche collection.

Under current ownership, the car has benefited from a recent service at Porsche Centre East Flanders, including new tyres, along with a professional detailing by Pole-Position. The car is fully prepared for its next custodian and presents in exceptional condition throughout.

While more than 61,000 Porsche 928s were produced between 1977 and 1995, the GTS variant was far from commonplace: around 2.800 examples worldwide, accounting for less than five percent of total production. Of which an estimated 1/3 being equipped with the manual transmission. Nearly three decades after the end of production, this represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most desirable and refined grand tourers ever built.

This particular GTS, with its rare colour combination, manual gearbox, and complete documentation, comes accompanied by its original books, service records, and invoices. Showing just under 55,000 kilometres, it stands as an outstanding example of the final and most developed evolution of the 928.

Registered in Belgium, the car is being sold on behalf of a client.
