Just about every time I stop to fill up either 928, someone will come over for a closer look and want to talk. Like several members have mentioned - the first question many on-lookers ask, especially if they approach from the front is "What kind of car is this".
Last month my wife and I returned from a couple of great weeks in 911 country up around the Vail, Estes Park and Steam Boat Springs area. We saw quite an assortment of Porsche - but we had the only 928 around. I tried to stay off of interstate as much as possible to enjoy the two lane back roads designated scenic drives. Miss Purdy did really well, even during one unintentional 5 mile trip over a one lane dirt trail called Buffalo Pass. By the way - a light grey line at the end of a road on a Colorado map means an unimproved stretch of dirt and gravel - good luck and have a nice day.....
While heading home we stopped in Amarillo for the night and the next morning we found an older German couple in the parking lot admiring our car. They said that when they were 1st married they drove a 928 and talked over 30 minutes about how much they had enjoyed owning it. The wife especially liked driving on the autobahn and through the Bavarian Alps on vacation. Both seemed very nice but Miss Purdy took a dislike to them when the large dog they were walking decided to christen the left rear tire.
Great trip over all with lots of good comments on the old girl - The car not the wife....
