1979 Porsche 928 used in the film Risky Business starring Tom Cruise

[@mkphotofilm]

this car just sold for almost 2 million. These guys must've been happy.

[@joeberginc7415]

Look at every seen where Tom is in the drivrr's seat. There is a distint defective fold in the side of the headrest. That is the "real" RB car...

[@FAST928GTS]

That movie sold me on the Porsche 928 and I am on my second 928 now

[@billystutz55]

Thats awesome. I'm looking to get one, you recommend the auto or the manual?

[@FAST928GTS]

@@billystutz55Both mine have been Auto, I have driven a manual and would have preferred one but i could not find one with the interior i could live with so I went auto and I still love the car. But drive both you may not like the dog leg gear box.

[@billystutz55]

@@FAST928GTS K cool. Thanks Wayne

[@snidly69]

HHstutz55 personally, I like the manual, 85 or 86. The S4 is nice as well, but I don’t like the look as much. If you get an auto, make sure it is an ‘82 or later for the 4 speed.

[@RevivedAndDriven]

I've lost count of how many times I've watched this movie! I absolutely loved watching your video! I am currently in the process of breathing life back into a 928S2 which I bought as a non runner! 😊 👌

[@thomaskaspar6053]

Great video. Thanks for posting!

[@davecohen4155]

I had no idea this car had been found and resurrected. How wonderful!

[@spinninggood]

great find...along with a great movie.

[@YoungoneYoung-lm4xe]

At the inaugural Barrett -Jackson Auction in Houston, TX this car sold to a private collector for over $1 million dollars. I had the chance to look at this car up close and it's in immaculate condition. I still want to own one.

[@gregsrestorations7019]

Yes we saw the auction. Pretty cool

[@danfonseca563]

Excellent story and enjoyed the fun facts to this iconic car and my fav movie of all time .

[@stevemilker]

Such great scenes with this car, loved this movie. Brought back memories seeing the Porsche 928 for the first time at the Chicago Auto Show. It's such a unique model and always looked like a shark to me with the body styling, it's still awesome.

[@edjackson4389]

I love this movie and I loved that 928.

[@ericcindycrowder7482]

The 928 that went in the lake had an unusually high front ride height. Look at the gap between top of the front tire and fender. Most likely the engine and complete drive train was removed

[@user-lq4wk5ub1k]

Absolutely they were removed.

[@marioiacolucci]

Thank you

[@TheTallMan50]

Then why couldn't Joel stop it when it began to roll downhill? Oh yeah, that would have ruined the storyline.

[@mkphotofilm]

if you had watched the video, you would notice that they say this.

[@scottprendergast5262]

Of course the engine was.removed

[@milesporsche8827]

This car just sold for $1,800,000 Million dollars at the Barrett - Jackson Houston Texas Auction on Aug. 18th, 2021. A world record for a Porsche 928 and any Porsche road car.

[@AmazingJayB51]

Looove that car, use to have a poster when I was a teen in the 80s!

[@jimmyblues59m76]

"So who's the U boat commander?!" 😁

[@dv8photographyca]

Wonderful

[@gbjanuary]

Very cool car 👍🏻😀

[@Robby_Rob]

how does it run still? i don’t think they mentioned that?

[@ronniemorgan5143]

What kind of horse power #’s were in that Porsche?

[@Dundertaker1]

Love it...own 2

[@rhettadams9161]

only 2? I'm up to 3 as of today lol.

[@gmar7836]

I had no idea this car was a 1979 model. I just assumed it was a 1983 model because the movie was made in 83. When the DeLorean came out in the early 80s it was all the rage but somehow it died pretty quickly, maybe it cost too much?

[@damachine3]

4:15 That's not what he said. Speaking of documentation, it's right there in the movie. Can't even get that right?

[@paulmoss7940]

About 1984 I drove a euro version 928. Aluminum V8 was very fast and smooth. I've had camaros ,chevelles, and drive a LT4 vette today..but I think that 928 was the fastest.

[@Turboy65]

It just sold for 1.8 million at Barrett Jackson's auction, Houston TX, 2021.

[@gregsrestorations7019]

Yes it did

[@jonzenrael]

Imagine building a time machine just to go see Jurassic Park

[@TechNoirJapan]

Nice video, how about the Porsche 928 in the movie Scarface?

[@mt3311]

That very car was just sold at a Barrett-Jackson auction in Houston for $1.8 million. Today 9/18/2021

[@gregsrestorations7019]

I saw that... crazy! We never owned it just worked on it

[@skosieruxo]

this is the same Bill Shea who sells german memorabilia from WW2. I never knew he was a car collector also. Interesting to say the least

[@gregsrestorations7019]

Yes he loves his cars as well!

[@gmar7836]

I detect a Massachusetts accent, so are these cars in Massachusetts?

[@roark23]

Ive been wanting to ask this question for 35 years, and by the video you probably know the answer - IS THE SOUND OF THE CAR WHEN THEY DRAG RACE IS THAT A REAL SOUND OF THE CAR ENGINE REVVING OR IS IT NOT?

[@patrickshea7951]

Orthodox American movie magic! The car is actually very quiet. Like the proper German car that it is 👍

[@rhettadams9161]

That is the sound of a US spec 928 opened up though, so it likely is.

[@jameswillard1]

Rhett Adams yes, I’ve heard that the sounds were of an actual 928 hit that it was straight piped or something like that

[@robknight164]

Definitely not 😂 those porches had pretty small quiet engines it wouldn't sound great if you revved it so I assume they dubbed over a different engine

[@davidjacobs8558]

@@robknight164 Porsche 928's had anywhere from 4.5 L to 5.4 L V8 engines. I would not say those are small engines.

[@bkehlin]

Why is the movie car a graphite color and this "refurbished" one is beige?

[@tobysirus4996]

Anyone know where the Porsche 944 from Sixteen Candles ended up?My 1987 944S started out in Santa Cruz Ca.What a life it has had! When I got her in 2013 I pulled the seats for a cleaning and found a dirty diaper and a porno on DVD.If only it could talk.

[@robertwilliams1662]

This car just sold for 1.8 million! today at barrett Jackson auction

[@ss_whole]

What's a ca?

[@cashmerefunk2136]

Question what does 928; meaning

[@rhettadams9161]

It, like all Porsche numbers, is the project number (901 (renamed 911 after a lawsuit by Peugeot), 930, 935, 944, 951, 968,959, etc)

[@lukeallison1182]

Absolute insanity what it just sold for.

Genius. It wasn’t just the car. There was a girl. Call girl actually.

[@saymyname218]

At 4.10 you can see that it has no engine in it.

If you look closely you can see it was just the frame

So you screwed the guy ?

[@DrakeAlan31]

cool but not 911 porsche cool

[@TheTallMan50]

Not 308 GTS Ferarri cool. 😎

[@anthonygambitta6220]

The early cars were dogs, slow and weak manual transmissions. Get a 1984 or newer 928, better performance and tight gearboxes. The GT/GTS are the true collector 928s.

[@brianskoi]

What is a poorsh??? Is that a german soup? Ooooh...ok...you mean Porsche. Porsche is a two syllable word. It would be pronounced Porsha.

[@gregsrestorations7019]

👍👍

[@andrewphippsphillips1455]

I still hear people who pronounced the F1 team Tyrrell like the way it is in BladeRunner (Tie Rell) . Its actually pronounced as in "squirrel"

[@willsco76]

All Porsche 928's are garbage

[@rhettadams9161]

very very incorrect. An amazing car, very very far advanced for the era. The fact is that many people have no idea how to work on a supercar such as this.

[@snidly69]

80sCats&GunsAddict they probably do, yeah lol. Some people can’t stop acting like that and never become actual adults.
