Funnily enough: My dad actually is in the Guiness Book of Records with this car, well the S version. November 7th, 1982 on the Nardo Ring. He was one of the drivers of the 24-hour highest average speed challenge. They`ve set the record of that time with an average speed of 251.4 km/h (156.2 mph) covering 6,033 kilometers.

As a current 928S4 owner and having been around the cars since 1980 I can tell you this is one of the most informed “history of the 928” videos out there. It was refreshing to hear just how iconic and forward thinking this car was when it debuted. Car and Driver said at the time that it made the 911 look like an antique. They also later called it the “Titanic” of supercars, referring to its massive depreciation but that’s another story. Great that Al Holbert’s flying trap run was included in the video. The car Magnus Walker was exhibiting is a very early car, #88 and like a lot of 928s was in desperate need of restoration but he’s the right guy for the job. Kudos to a great video keeping the story alive!

In the late '80's, I had a high school, neighborhood friend that her father had one of these in his garage. He never let his daughter drive it, no matter how many times she begged, and believe me, she was extremely spoiled. Anyway, one day I was over there and he walked out in the yard, threw me the keys and told me to drive him to the store. It was not a far, or fast drive, but it was an incredible drive for me at the time. Imagine a 17 year old kid sliding behind the wheel of one of these beauties. Man, I thought my head was going to explode, but I had to keep my cool. I honestly don't remember the year model of the car, I just remember looking at it every time I would go over there and the garage door would be open. Even with the car cover on it, that car looked cool as heck.

In 1982 I was a junior in high school and my mother was dating this guy who had a 280ZX Turbo. He was going for a weekend with mom and he tossed me the keys. Mom was as surprised as I was. She said “What if he wrecks it?” He replied “I’ll get it fixed.” I had a great weekend, I even got a date with someone I had no shot at. And to this very day I love the ZX, not the Z, but yes the ZX. I have owned two and would not be against having another, if the price is right. The only 928 memories I have are from 1980, I got to clean the windows…I worked in a car wash.

FYI: car parts has really long shipping times currently despite their guaranteed 2 day shipping promise. They also do a really annoying thing where they break your purchase into multiple different boxes and ship them out during different times. This becomes a huge issue when you've just purchased a whole suspension replacement for your car, which is not OEM I may add, only to get each strut and shock assembly to show up at your door spread out by a few days in between. They took 3 weeks to get my whole order to me, not 2 days. And they don't have everything you might need, like a heated seat replacement for your car. You're better off scouring the junk yards for one of those. The prices were good though, but you're essentially getting off brand ebay parts.

The Weissach in Weissach-Achse stands for: " 'W'inkel 'ei'nstellende, 's'elbst's'tabilisierende 'A'usgleichs-'Ch'arakteristik" Translated to Angle adjusting, self stabilizing, adjusting characteristic. But they obviously chose the word like that to make the acronym possible ;)

928 reminds me of a Frog with those round pop up headlights. It's like how a Frog would blink when it tries to eat something. The green ones don't help either. Still 300+ hp... impressive for the 80s. #WeWantHorseCream

Fascinating vid about the history of the 928, many thanks. I've owned 2 928s, a 1990 S4 and a 1993 GTS and loved them both. Currently have a manual Iris Blue 1996 993 Carerra in the garage along with a (gasp) 1986 BMW 635CSi. I've also been lucky enough to have had a couple of 944s (Lux and an S2) plus the odd Ferrari ( 2 328 GTBs, a 360 Modena, an F355 and a 456GT). My wife likes her little Skoda Fabia but puts up with my car madness (happy wife, happy life). Cheers from a rather chilly Otford, Kent, UK.
