Here’s a little info about this car lifted off Wikipedia…

The 928 GTS came for sale in late 1991 as a 1992 model in Europe and in spring of 1992 as an early 1993 model in North America. Changed bodywork, larger front brakes and a new, more powerful 5.4 L, 350 PS (257 kW/345 hp) engine were the big advertised changes; what Porsche wasn’t advertising was the price. Loaded GTS models could eclipse US$100,000 in 1995, making them among the most expensive cards on the road at the time. This severely hampered sales despite the model’s high competency and long standard equipment list. Porsche discontinued the GTS model that year after shipping only 77 of them to the United States.

1994

• Model designation: 928 GTS

• Engine displacement: 5.4 L

• Valves: 32

• Power: 350 PS (345 hp, 257 kW)

• Changes:

• Cabin pollen filter added.

• Dynamic kickdown for automatic transmission models.

• Wheel design changed to “Cup II”, RDK deleted at same time.

• First 19 US models were made already in spring of 1993, months before when normal model year change occurs in July/August. These M718 option cards still used previous model year parts like Cup I wheels and do not have 1994 model year updates despite using same 1994 VIN sequence.

• Connecting rods changed to stronger design part in middle of model year.
