1989 Porsche 928 S4 - 5 Speed Manual!

[@juliafinch359]

OMG. A 5 speed with straight pipes plus a V8. This car just rocks and one of the coolest Porsche's around.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I agree Julia.

[@steveriley1178]

One of my favorite 928 designs and those lights still make me smile. One of the best engines around.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thanks Steve

[@Jeff_Brown659]

Most underrated Porsche ever made.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

So true.

[@kaitoriyama1981]

True too class performance. This guy knows his stuff too. Impressive!

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thanks Kai

[@troycobb6925]

Amazing car and great motor. Still turns heads today as it did when Porsche created this beautiful 89 S4.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Couldn't agree more!

[@benvin10365]

This is an outstanding example of a 928! Exactly what I would want.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Benvin, I completely agree with you. Simply a real head turner too. I also wanted to take a moment to personally thank for watching my videos and subscribing to my channel I truly appreciate it. As you may have seen in my videos that my intention is to showcase not only the beautiful car and really give the owner of the car (the caretaker as Jay Leno rightly says) the opportunity to share their story, love and passion for their car. Thanks again Kevin.

[@playfulplanets1697]

Wow, that's a beautiful example. One of the best I have seen.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Round nut, thanks for sharing and you are so right the sound of that V8 alone is enough to make you smile.

[@guillaumesibbille]

Beautiful car i love the sound. This was my dream car when i was a child.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Guillaum, me too. The pure engine sound is what makes you smile each time.. as David does and knows too how special this car is… and he has a few beautiful cars that we have made videos on.

[@jamesshilton597]

Hey Kev. You realize you are showing my dream car. Those pipes sing.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thank you.. they do sound awesome.

[@danedwards9511]

Masterpiece of engineering!

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I agree Dan

[@trance9158]

What a beautiful 928.

[@gazfish]

The two rear wiper arms are because one is an idler and keeps the wiper blade vertical as it sweeps the screen.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Gaz, that is a great engineering solution, thanks for sharing.

[@eva5601]

I received 1987 (928) as a gift, back in late 1993. My x totaled it drunk driving. 😠 The vehicle also performed smoothly, which also gripped to the road, and with excellent torque. Speeds up to 0-60 in 5 seconds.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

EV.. the car is a true gift! And such a same it was damaged.. is that reason they became the “X”😊.

[@frankename1984]

Happy new year to you too. Wonderful video and a great car.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thanks, you too!

[@terrylessmann2274]

Great review & great car. I have the exact copy - '89 S4 blk / blk 5-spd w/ 56K mi but mine has the orig chrome manhole covers. Bought her summer '23 and the plan is to get the maint up to date, drive and enjoy for a cpl yrs, then pass on to the next caretaker.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Terry, you lucky dog. The car is extraordinary for sure and you will certainly be the envy of others.

[@kenrobertson4109]

Happy New Year to you too kev and all the best for 24. The Porsche 928 has been one of my favorite and with those pop up lights, straight pipes and a manual drive it's perfection.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thanks Ken

[@diegovasquez7048]

Awesome ride man with those straight pipes!

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I agree

Yes! In every video, we can see the passion of the owner... and the host 😊@@ClassicCarChitChat

[@hensh911]

Nice video, lovely car, subscribed.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Hensh911, I completely agree the car is certainly a classic on so many levels especially with that V8.

[@themooseface]

I love the 928, they managed to stuff that v8 behind the front tires and get the weight pretty much 50/50. You can also fit a whole mountain bike in the back without taking off tires and close the hatch too.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Themooseface (love the name) you are so right. That V8 on a relatively light car is outstanding and those straight pipes really makes it come to life too.

[@omarhanraman9133]

Swwweeettt ride man! Pipes are the bomb.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I agree

[@rinkydinky78]

Later models still look gorgeous, especially with cup wheels

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Rinkydinky (love the name) .. I completely agree with you. It adds a certain element to it too.

[@richardprice7763]

Beautiful car but it just irks me that the North American versions have those mandated side marker/reflector lights and those strange rubber blocks either side of the rear licence plate. The Euro versions look a bit cleaner...love the cup alloys though!

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Richard.. you are not the only one. Sadly too many cars over the years have fallen to these requirements in order to sell to the market.

[@davejohnson2814]

The 982 was always way ahead of its time. This car is a testament to pure Porsche performance and perfection.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Right on Dave.

[@trance9158]

[@andrewsommers2823]

Nice ride!! Ever thought of doing a story on a classic 57 or 68 Thunderbird??? Happy New Year.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Andrew, thank you for your comment. The Porsche is beautiful and I would certainly be interested in the Thunderbird. I have done 1 before and another coming soon but if you have one I would love to meet you and make a video.

[@claudebiface]

Nice car! Looks to me it may actually be a 928GT, not an S4.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Claude.. thanks for clarifying.

[@gerardmcmillan8591]

I will take an original 928, no rear spoiler with a manual transmission and a electric radio antenna ❤

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Gerald.. agreed.. why change something that is pure perfection in the first place 😊.

I always felt it would look so much better without that rubber rear wing

[@claudebiface]

Because it's a manual, with the antenna on the roofof

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Claude, thanks for clarifying. If it was an automatic can we assume the antenna would be in a different position?
