Hi Hernan, that is an amazing breakdown. *Thank you for putting up the times above.* The 928 does not get the credit it deserves.

[@HernanSpeed]

Love the Porsche 928! 🙌🙌

[@SunKing968]

Hernan ROCKS. Mi 968 Club Sport es muy delicioso. 928 tambien

[@upssidep9283]

Yesss!! Gonna watch this tonight on the big screen! 💥💥

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@pederfallbom]

Thank you for bringing the 928 info and love to the world! Great video as always! Greetings from Sweden 👍🇸🇪

[@HernanSpeed]

My favorite car!! 🚀🚀 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@MrPiyatat]

Excited for this video and the upcoming 928 mods one. You make the best 928 videos on KZbin, much appreciated!

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks man! This is a reply of all the 928 videos in one place, it’s almost one hour. The mods one is going to have things that most people don’t know, brand new stuff for many! Will be cramming everything into it! 🙌🙌

[@MrPiyatat]

@@HernanSpeed As a 928GTS owner, I look forward to your videos for tips to apply to my car. 🙏

[@HernanSpeed]

Cream of the crop! 🙌🙌

[@slickfrictionless]

Bravo!! Props to your support of the 928! As far as maintenance, if these cars are maintained you can easily get over 300,000 miles. I have 200,000+ on mine and it’s been meticulously maintained for the entire 27 years I’ve owned it! I know the car inside and out and it still runs like a bat out of hell! I go so far back that I was around to attend the Devek events up in San Francisco. They did lots of work on mine as I’d drive it up there from San Diego just to have them work on it!

[@HernanSpeed]

Wow!! I remember Devek! I still have one of their old catalogs!! YESSSS, these cars will run forever with proper maintenance! 💯🚀🚀 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@slickfrictionless]

⁠@@HernanSpeedLol, cool! I still have a cast iron 928 model I won at one of their events and it has a Devek sticker on the door! It’s probably worth something as they were legendary in the 928 community!

[@HernanSpeed]

Yess, Devek used to be the Top Gun of the 928 community! 🙌🙌

[@slickfrictionless]

@ BTW, you are dead on about the interior! Do you know of anyone who does a good job on the interiors? Even as well maintained as mine is, I drive it so it’s time to re-do the front seats. No rips or tears but it’s time for new foam and I’d do the leather as well:). I know there was one guy out there well known for this but I can’t remember who it was?

[@HernanSpeed]

Check out Joe’s interior work, he gets it! 💯 I would definitely trust him with 928 seats: instagram.com/californiaupholstery

[@madfemurfast]

It almost makes me want one of these cars...

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching man! 👊👊

[@pederfallbom]

Ofcoarse you do! Get one now....

Bro!!!!! Thanks for 🎉posting this!!!!!!

Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@reitsmaassociates]

Have been smitten by the 928 from the moment I saw one for the first time in my matchbox catalogue in 1979 - looked like it had come from another planet , its still a total looker - fabulous video as always - cheers from Brisbane.

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@Landshark928]

Thanks again for your effort to create this 928 marathon! Howdee from the Netherlands!

[@HernanSpeed]

We also love Landsharks here in Miami!! 🚀🚀 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@MTbone7]

Always a great vid!

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@juanvidal9492]

A great compilation :-)👍 In my opinion, the early models look like a classic, and the later models look timeless. I own my 88 S4 for 17 years, I still love the way it drives and the way it looks. Now I started wondering if I should upgrade to a GTS 🤔

[@HernanSpeed]

I agree! The S4 is a spectacular model, and small tweaks make it even more fun! A “Top Porsche 928 Mods” video is coming soon! Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@clearcandortv5727]

Very good Herman!! Perhaps you can do a video about 928 maintenance costs. I mean like a list of maintenance items that need to be done and the approximate cost. 🤔

[@HernanSpeed]

That’s a great idea! Will definitely include it in the next one, it will give lots of value! 💯💯 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@w.w.trader1813]

Ewa na pewno obejrzy ten film ;)

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching! 👊👊🚀

[@anthonygordon14]

Around 12-13 years ago when I purchased my 928 S4 MY89 (Guards Red), the Landshark community would jokingly say, when asked how much a 928 is, it's a $AUD50,000 car.......... depends on where you start LOL! I looked at at least a dozen cars and went with one with good service records, great interior, and good previous owner pedigree. Loving my 928 and can concur with much of what has been commented on here in the video. Great car. Well built. Solid. Mine's a keeper! Cheers

[@HernanSpeed]

Never sell!! 🚀🚀

[@michaelschock3179]

Great video with many details and all are absolutely true! Bought my 1992 GTS 21 years ago at rock bottom price in Germany and never regretted it! Regardless what people say, this car was built to last. The last true manufactured car by Porsche. At 169 kmiles today, it still drives and feels like it just rolled off the assembly line. Never let me stranded in 21 years of ownership!

[@HernanSpeed]

What a great buy! 💯💯 That’s what I’m talking about! Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@SwamiAJCent]

Great content! Had an '87 S4 with the pop up wing and daily driver for 5 years. It was extremely fast from 80 to top end and with the auto it would just toggle between 3rd and 4th gear just trying to go faster. Replaced with a '91 S4 that was pretty much just perfect. It wasn't as fast top end but much faster than the '87 0 to 60mph. I always loved how they just sit or squat down when at speed and more gas is usually the answer.

[@HernanSpeed]

Love the S4’s! The 87’s had slightly longer gearing, great for the autobahn! The 91 had lots of improvements that add up! Great choice, never sell! 🔥🔥 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@shawn_911]

Great job again with this, and I just wanted to check in again. I can confirm everything you are saying. Two months ago, I got a 1987 4S and had it directly sent from Atlanta to the mechanic in Dallas. I still haven't seen it, and the mechanic's bill is up to $17,500.

[@HernanSpeed]

Yeap! That’s the way it goes with classic Porsches! Many times, it’s years of catch up maintenance that needs to be done. Save all the receipts! 💯💯

[@andyjohnson6548]

Another great video. Thanks for sharing 👍👍

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@New_Jax_City]

So where’s the 928 from the movie Weird Science. How bout a video on that. Try and track it down! ❤

[@HernanSpeed]

Someday it will be found! Some incredible scenes in that movie!! 👊👊

[@diegohorton869]

I’m a victim of a crime, a crime of passion that left me feeling guilty about buying my first 928, and broke. It has cost me more than any car I’ve ever owned. It still isn’t right… please don’t take this video for granted. It should be a standard for every person looking for a 928. Thank you

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@jcferrarif40]

Awesome video. Very appreciated! I'm a collector in Miami and have couple of them. Will try to find a way to reach out.

[@HernanSpeed]

Great cars!! 🚀🚀 Thanks for watching man! 👊👊

[@SunKing968]

Muchos gracias, very well done! I can't believe you even hint at the truth about the outrageously overrated Frog11 at 0:38! Fantastico!

[@HernanSpeed]

Thanks for watching brother! 🙌🙌

[@detonator2112]

I think 928 GTS is one of the best looking Porsches ever made. Only 993 S is better looking. The new Porsches are just bloated. Do nothing for me.

[@HernanSpeed]

Yesss!! 💯💯 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@anthonygordon14]

What are your thoughts on head gasket life on the the 928 engines??

[@HernanSpeed]

They last forever, unless it overheats.. So if all fluids are changed regularly, it’s a non-issue (some coolants become corrosive). Most issues on 928 engines are simply lack of maintenance, the engine should last over 500k+ miles without needing a rebuild. Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@DKarGarage]

I own a 1992 968 , 2009 cayenne gts 6speed , just need to get a 928 dogleg

[@HernanSpeed]

BROOO! That’s what I’m talkin about!! 🙌🙌🔥🔥

[@928pcar]

German muscle 💪🏼

[@HernanSpeed]

You know it! 💯👊👊

[@drblast]

Love your videos. Can you join me on a Live Podcast where we discuss these cars, and, show and tell things we both have discovered.

[@HernanSpeed]

Sounds like a great idea! 🙌🙌 Will definitely be looking into doing more podcasts soon! Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@drblast]

@@HernanSpeed I’m doing some pretty cool things on these 928’s here in Texas.

[@HernanSpeed]

You’ve got a great channel man!! Lots of great stuff! 💯🙌🙌

[@Mike-xn1bh]

Excellent video! I know the 928 is the premium Porsche but the 944 is the better looking vehicle in my eyes.

[@HernanSpeed]

You can’t go wrong with a Porsche 944! The clean ones are definitely worth the premium! 🚀🚀 Thanks for watching brother! 👊👊

[@jorgeleiton-wz1ec]

you are amazing in wich movie are you working today,???

[@HernanSpeed]

More car videos coming soon! Thanks for watching brother!

[@foadrightnow5725]

For being such an avid Porsche enthusiast, you think you would pronounce their name correctly! It Por-sha, two syllables! Not Porsh!

[@HernanSpeed]

I also have an accent! 🙌💯 Thanks for watching! 👊👊

[@slagrebi740]

Oh yeah, 928 s2 with a manual thanks. Always wanted a land shark.
