And you are also correct in that they were only marketed that way by Porsche in the United Kingdom. That indeed, makes my car a 928S, instead of a 928S2.

My VIN: WP0ZZZ92ZFS841526.

Go ahead and decode it.

-I like to use the UK model name because there isn't any other name for the twin-distributor 2 valve '84-'86's. Back in 2002, I started using that name for my car on Rennlist, and it has kind of caught on. Most people these days know that the term "S2" is the number of the beast, and also know what it means. The only difference between a UK S2 and an Austrian S2 is the drive side. Everything else is the same.

NOW; As to your character assassination....let's talk about your post:

* I'm puzzled about your attack. And YES it was an attack. I held you folks at Brussels Center in high regard; perhaps I was WRONG.

* There is no term "you'de" in the English language. You are wrong.

* John Speake, who is famous for rebuilding MAF's , has the designation "928S2" on the back of his personal car. YES there is a PORSCHE sticker that says 928S2, with the "S2" in open letters. Here's a reference for a picture of this sticker: "The Essential Buyers Guide Porsche 928" by David Hemmings. If you look at the bottom of page 12 there is a clear picture of the Porsche 928S2 sticker. Once again, you are wrong.

* Porsche NEVER called any 928 an "S3". This is an enthusiast designation, designed to designate the early 32 valve cars. Again....WRONG!

* My engine code is M28-21, with the engine serial number 82F00516.

Some more details of the code sticker in my trunk [and the matching one in my original, German language owners manual:

928 920

M2821-82F G2810-11F

L700 99

C11 S

Now that we've established that you are lacking in knowledge and cannot spell, since YOU obviously have such a MONSTROUS knowledge of Porsche cars and their mechanicals, why don't YOU go ahead and tell my why I am getting vapor lock on hot days. Come on Porsche expert...talk to me! PLEASE don't clear any conflicting traffic to the same flight level while you are doing it-

N!

PS: By the way, REAL Belgans Frans spreken-

He knows not to put LEADED GAS in his Porsche. We're both one up on you.

LOL
