It is a Eurospec car.

Importing it into Canada must not be as tricky as the US. There is starting to be alot of these lower mile Japanese S4's around Canada....but none around where I live!!

Actually the other red cars are not mine, that is a picture of it sitting at the guys house I purchased it from. He is a car collector/importer. He had 7- 928s4 in all different colors and all with lower mileage.

Yes, I was happy to get a sunroof delete model, seems like lots of them from Japan have that, most the NA models have the sunroof. It just pisses off the wife though...LOL, she loves sunroofs!!

Thanks for all the nice comments everyone, can't wait for spring now!!

A quick question.... is there anything I need to worry about storing the car in my garage with no heat in it?? The dash and seat are perfect and I want to keep them that way.....do I need to do anything as a precaution??

Nice acquisition, and WELCOME!

Hi and welcome to rennlist.
First, nice car you got there. Sunroof delete too! Rare here.

As for storage, I keep mine in my non heated garage and never had problem.
I just make sure that the coolant is good for the temperature we have here, put some fuel stabilizer in a full tank and put the tire pressure to about 45 lbs. Also, I change the oil and clean it inside and out and remove the battery from the car and take it inside the house where I put the maintainer on it.

And also, drier the place, better it is, always.

Congrats, car looks great. My car also came from Japan about the same time.

Hello,

Nice car.
What is its VIN and is it a manual or automatic?

Samuel

dt3257 · 11-19-2009, 12:24 PM

It's an automatic....but I'm one of the rare guys that actually wants an automatic. LOL

Is it OK to post my VIN # on here??

IrishLegend · 11-19-2009, 12:29 PM

Yes. Also go to 928registry.org and register it.

Canada allows in just about ANY 15 year old car very simple to have lots of neat cars !! Still not enough of a reason to actually LIVE there

Just kidding .

Calgary Ole · 11-19-2009, 01:04 PM

What do you mean? Winter only lasts about 6 months around here, 7 where dt3257 lives. ( still waiting for global warming )

dt3257 · 11-19-2009, 01:12 PM

I wished it lasted 7 months....great for my snowmobiling habit!! LOL

Actually I only live 15 miles from the US border....it's real handly for buying thing state side, even have an US post office box.

James Bailey · 11-19-2009, 01:14 PM
