Early 1993 Porsche 928 GTS: Very Significant And Rare, 1 Of Only 54 Manual Units Produced For The 1993 Model Year - Only 406 GTS Models Were Brought To The U.S. - Meticulously Maintained, With No Expense Spared - Finished In Black Over Classic Grey - Displays Only 18,850 Miles From New - Clean CarFax Report - Comes With Its Original Books And Manuals, tool kit and air compressor, original window sticker, service records, and Certificate of Authenticity.

Presenting a rare opportunity to take ownership of an exceptional and minimally driven example of the coveted GTS trim with the highly sought-after 5-speed manual transmission! Built in March of 1992 at Porsche's assembly facility in Stuttgart, this 1993 U.S model is the absolute ideal 928 GTS for the most discerning collector as it is representative of how a well-sorted and no-stories specimen should present itself.

Surrounded by a timeless body where the rear fenders and tires ever so subtlety protrude outwards, thus creating a muscular, visual drama; a rear spoiler that further draws one's attention to its sloping roofline, while its iconic reflector strip adds to the dramatic, yet fluid design language by aiding in accentuating the wider rear fenders with the 17-inch Cup 1 wheels harmoniously completing the exterior.

As you step inside the Classic Grey finished cabin and close the door, you're not only greeted by the solid thunk that emits from the closing of the door, assuring one of the car's solidity, but also by the embracing and heated power-adjustable front sport seats that are complimented by a cabin that features a streamlined and driver-centric layout, with the driver being welcomed by a 4-spoke steering wheel, 3-floor pedals and 5-speed manual gearbox. The cabin also features a sunroof and a CD-2, CD player.

It was driven and remained under the care of its first owner from late June of 1992 until 1997 when it was placed in long-term storage. The GTS remained stored until its second owner acquired it in February of 2011. During the 2nd owner's 8 years of ownership, less than 2,000 miles were accumulated. On the 2nd of February, 2020, its third owner took ownership and has since driven it less than 400 miles.

This fastidiously maintained and turn-key example benefits from a July 2019 servicing that consisted of an oil and coolant flush, new water pump, and a timing belt change. Within the last 400 miles, it has also received new tires, lug nuts, wheel caps, wiper blades and exhaust tips, it had its brake hoses, rotors, and pads replaced, a caliper refinishing, while also having its transmission and brake fluid flushed. All parts that were replaced have been kept by the third owner.

The GTS is an absolute legendary Grand Tourer from Porsche. Debuting in 1992 with production concluding in 1995, only 2,887 examples were produced. Of those, the U.S would only receive 406 examples. Finished in an illustrious shade of black with an interior upholstered in Classic Grey, this specimen would go on to be 1 of 190 examples and 1 of only 54 manual-equipped units produced for the 1993 model year and one of only 12 with sport seats!

The GTS stands as the pinnacle in the 928 line and is powered by a 5.4-liter V8 engine that's situated up front with its sonorous roar emitting from its rear dual-exhaust outlets.  Performance attributes are comprised of an engine with 345-hp and 369-lbs-ft of torque to the rear wheels; front brake calipers that are derived from the 911 Turbo; a weight distribution of 50/50 with a relatively low weight of 3,300 pounds; the Weissach axle rear-steering setup; and handling that's well collected with a very connected steering feel.
