I've had a white 1983 S manual and a silver 1987 S4 manual. I fell in love with these cars when I was in my early twenties, and even though I have also had a BMW M3, and driven various exotic cars, the 928 is the car that I think about often and really miss. I sold the S4 when I went overseas to work for a year, but am sorry now that I did, and wish I had kept it. The 928 has everything - beautiful styling, massive power and an awesome V8 sound, unbelievably solid build quality, and it feels special when you sit in its perfectly designed seats. I reached 257kmh easily in the S4, and the speed was still climbing, but unfortunately a car was up ahead, and I thought the driver might have a heart attack if a Porsche rocketed past him at that speed! Like any high performance car, they are costly to maintain, but worth every penny. Definitely one of Porsche's best cars!

@christopherleveck68358 жыл бұрын
Don't get me wrong, i really want to give you a kick ass answer but it depends on so many things. The best thing you can do is find some guys in your area that have them and ask them to help you find one. It all depends on the car. You want one that has always been maintained. These cars a lot of the time were kept by the same guy and serviced at the same place then sold to a guy from that area and serviced at the same place. Thats what you want. One with a documented history. They dont like to sit. Thats been my experience. You want one that was driven regularly. These cars will run forever if taken care of. They are kind of hard to kill. But you have to stay on top of them. When you have an issue, fix it. Because another small thing is coming. Don't let them build up. The more you fix the little things the more comfortable you become with working on the car. There is lots of help out there if you ask for it. If its your first one, dont get a fixer upper. There are plenty of cars in need of saving and you can do that later. Make sure you understand the machine before you get one that has to be restored or revived. I personally am a big lover of the S4. But they have some quirks. Electrical issues mostly. But the good news is once fixed, if done right, should last another 30 years. The timing belt is the biggy. It is a cheap part but it requires removing the front half of the engine in kind of tight quarters in an area surrounded by soft aluminum body panels you dont want to touch with a tool while your ripping things out of the engine bay and then shoe horning them back into place. If not done, correctly, and in a timely manner that little bastard can break and ruin your entire porsche experience. But it doesnt have to happen. Other than that. Normal stuff, change the oil, keep up your fluids. Just dont let it go, Youll be fine. If you do have the work done by a reputable shop or especially if done by the same shop the previous owner had, then during regular service they should find any nightmares well in advance of any catastrophic failures. So if your not mechanically inclined take it to someone who knows these cars until you feel comfortable working on it yourself. As far as price goes...... wow, i would suggest if you have the money, find the diamond in the ruff with a bankers box full of all the service records and a seller that will go through them with you. Pay a premium for your car. I think S4s in good shape are going for 16-20k now. That may seem high but Im talking looks like a new car and was well maintained. I wouldnt sell mine for less than 25 and would probably start at 30k. But mine is rediculously modified and documented and has won 5 concours events.... Its beautiful. And for the most part, perfect. Low mileage. The cars are out there. I have a 78 that is a bit of a basket case and was around 4k going on 6-7 years ago.... That car is basically sound but needs a lot of work to put it right and make it whole again. Ill do the work myself, its mostly cosmetic, Im taking my time looking for parts When the pile is big enough and complete with all necessary parts it wont have cost me a fortune but it will be worth something. It was the 52nd 928 built. I have to do a ton of elbow grease kinds of jobs to it. But these cars are VERY repairable. They are a TRUE supercar.. But they can be driven every day. In fact, i encourage you to do exactly that. This is only the tip of the iceberg as far as advice goes, and half the Landshark drivers out there are going to disagree with everything Ive said here.... But the Porsche 928 is WORTH it. Every penny and every drop of sweat and blood. You won't ever drive anything like it. Nothing looks like it. I mean mine gets WAY too much attention. I live somewhere that doesnt have many of them driving around. Ive never seen another one while driving mine. But the styling is modern enough that people ask me if its a new car. What kind of car is that. OR is that a new kind of Porsche? And for being 30 years old...... There isnt a highschool kid around here with anything that will touch me off the line. Mines got about 440 HP though, its not stock, but Id put a stock one up against a lot of modern much newer cars and even if it didnt eat them for lunch it would still look cooler while doing it.

Think about 1978 and how the cars generally looked... like Vauxhall Chevette / Opel Kadett. 928 must have been like a spaceship among those. One of the best and most timeless designs in car history.

I bought a salvage 1984 928S that had been bashed in the rear, was missing the driver:s side door and fender and had bullet holes in the two left wheels and a mismatched ugly, super wide Gotti rr wheel. It had been registered in White Post Alabama and I suspect it had been owned by Amin Abu Jamal ("Rap" Brown). After a very difficult restoration it became a very nice car, a real pleasure. The motor was wonderful in sound and power, the 6 speed dogleg gearshift very nice. The handling very controllable and balanced for such a heavy car. I wasn't that impressed by the grip, considering how much rubber it was putting on the road with the forged factory wheels from a later car I found for it. I love front engine/rear transaxle cars. I suspect that I'd like a 944's handling better, and a lower, stiffer sprung than stock transaxle Alfa is better with better steering feel. The styling to me was a mix. In overall proportions and rear treatment it reminds me of a certain Ferrari 340 racing coupe from the early/ mid 50s, but I don' t like its "face" too much, although I liked the way they did the headlight mechanism. Thr bodywork that was needed was surprisingly easy for me to do - except for splicing together the multitude of wires going into the new door. I would never want to have to do another transaxle change, or replace a clutch on it, or on any torque tube car, I guess. The way they did the wiring was scary, old school to the max. Every component wired directly to the fuse box. It seemed like a short could essily fry everything. Maybe that is not so bad, I had just never seen it done that way. Apart from the clutch/torque tube/trans difficulty pretty easy to work on. I wish mine had been the russet color of the MW car.

Porsche needs to bring back the 928, and the main way to do that is with the existing Panamera by making some changes to the wheelbase and of course taking off two doors. Heck, they could even call it the “928 Panamera”, in similar fashion to how they gave the Boxster & Cayman the “718” namesake. Unfortunately, the only reason this probably won’t happen is because a car like that would probably cannibalize 911 sales. I mean, let’s be honest with ourselves, the 911 isn’t a sports car like it once was, it’s a bloated GT car.

tonkatoytruck It's not that its launch was lackluster, the issue is that it was a totally different concept of a sports car when pitted against the 911. Porsche learned, after 17 years, that the reason for the 911's appeal, apart from the RR Drivetrain, was the concentration it required to master the car, it was a barebones machine to be taken seriously; not luxurious.

Aside from the 914, the 928 is my favorite Porsche....never did like the 911, to be honest....and there is never any room for comparing a Porsche 928 with ANY Garbage Motors manufactured chevy junkvette, not once not never can or should comparing those two occur...

13.9 with that much power? how much does thing weigh, 4,000lbs?
@uboat928s4srv8 жыл бұрын
+Laweeze Morton It's only 3,594 pounds -- the car is geared for 170mph+, not the quarter-mile -- they're metric anyway.

I always thought this car looked better than the 911 but was it faster than the 911 of the same area ?

The only. 911 that I know was after was the turbo.
@uboat928s4srv8 жыл бұрын
The 911 Turbo was slightly faster to 60MPH; the 928 had a higher top speed, especially in later years. Both can be tremendous fun to drive.

I always thought that the 911 look too much like a Volkswagen bug don't get me wrong it's not an ugly car I always thought the 928 just look better

At the time of production, the 928 could outrun every 911 of the same year except the turbo, which had slightly better acceleration. For the time the 928 was one seriously rapid car.
