    I just have to chime in here because I have always loved this car, but never driven it. The reason why I loved it was that I first saw one on the Massachusetts turnpike when it was just starting to blizzard -- you know the way the cars separate the snow as they move forward before it starts to stick to the pavement? Well, I was going at a good clip in whatever 70's econobox I was driving at the time and suddenly I see the most beautiful rear end of a car that I had ever seen. He passed me going about 20 mph faster than I was. I will never forget that sight! It was long before I became an enthusiast, but now, when I look at these, I never want to see them with that little rubber spoiler they added after a couple of years -- only the earliest ones for me.

    Amen, amen, amen to that rubber “spoiler”. I’ve always kind of liked 928’s too. But I’ve always thought of them as a trinket for the Porsche enthusiast who has everything.

    Cheers,
