1986 928 S 928s Porsche Rare Original D4 Pastel Beige on 2040-cars
Farmington, Michigan, United States
I am selling this one owner vehicle for the wife of the original owner who passed away 2 years ago. The car has been stored since his death in doors. I replaced the battery checked the fluids and it started right up and ran very well. The original color of the car is D4 Pastel Beige with a brown leather interior. This is a rare exterior color commonly referred to in 1984 as chiffon. The interior is in very nice condition with perfect dash but with the common drivers side bolster ware. As mentioned the car runs very well with no noises. The transmission shifts as it should The car was properly maintained by either the local Porsche dealer or by a popular German mechanic in the Detroit area. The timing belt, tensioners and water pump were changed at 50,000 miles. All gauges and accessories work as they should including Air conditioning, but will need a charge.
This 928 with the rare paint and interior is very nice but an enthusiast will need to detail it after sitting. No major body or interior work is needed with the exception of the drivers side seat bolster. The 4 wheels need attention, but most buyers probably replaced then with more popular wheel and tire combination. The wheels could be easily refinished as there is no curb damage. Included with the car is the original window sticker, Owners Manual, Warranty Booklet, Tools and Air pump. As mentioned, I am selling this car for a friend. I am a current owner of a 928 and a 35 year member of PCNA. The vehicle is located in Bingham Farms, Michigan northwest of Detroit and can be inspected by appointment. I will assist with any shipping required, however the purchaser must arrange his own shipping. Any questions can be answered by me. You can call me at 248-417-7400 |

Porsche teams with Delta airlines to woo VIP passengers
Sun, 15 Sep 2013The next time you're waiting for a flight at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, see if you can spot a Porsche Cayenne or Panamera zipping between aircraft on the busy tarmac. The high-performance German vehicles aren't there practicing for an upcoming autocross; they are tasked with whisking some of the airline's most important customers between flights so they can keep their busy schedules intact.
Launched nearly two years ago, the program has proven popular with the automaker, airline and passengers as all benefit from the unique arrangement. Atlanta-based Porsche is able to showcase its cars to Delta's frequent-flying Medallion members, the airline is recognized for providing unusual perks to its high-value customers and those fortunate enough to be surprised with a quick lift are able to make connections without a stressful run through the terminal. Based on its success, the airline is rolling our similar programs in New York, Los Angeles and Minneapolis this month.
And don't think Porsche is the only automaker working with an airline to entice its frequent flyers. Mercedes-Benz ran a program over the summer that offered purchasing and leasing incentives to MileagePlus Premier members of United Airlines, and the two are currently shuttling top fliers around Houston's George Bush Intercontinental Airport in the automaker's S-Class and GL-Class models.
Porsche, Hyundai and GM impress in J.D. Power Initial Quality Study, Fiat and Jeep don't
Wed, 18 Jun 2014Consumers continue to struggle with the advanced user interfaces and technologies being fitted to new cars, according to the latest J.D. Power Initial Quality Study. Overall, the industry average for problems per 100 vehicles climbed three percent, to 116 issues reported in the first 90 days of ownership.
Vehicles from the General Motors' family were dominant, with Buick, Chevrolet and GMC capturing more individual IQS segment awards than any other manufacturer. Despite its well-publicized issues, six GM vehicles (Buick Encore, Chevrolet Malibu, Chevy Silverado HD, Chevy Suburban, GMC Terrain and GMC Yukon) were given IQS awards for their respective segments.
Hyundai was ranked the best overall mass-market brand, with just 94 issues in every 100 vehicles reported in the first 90 days. Parent Hyundai Motor Company, meanwhile, trailed GM with five vehicles winning their segments, including the Hyundai Accent, Elantra and Genesis, as well as the Kia Cadenza and Sportage.
1949 Gm?nd Porsche shows the birth of an icon
Fri, 21 Mar 2014The Austrian village of Gmünd is more than just difficult to pronounce; it's also the birthplace of the Porsche brand. Before the company ever started building sports cars at its current home base near Stuttgart, the fledgling business completed several vehicles in the tiny town in Southern Austria. In this video, former Pikes Peak International Hill Climb champion Jeff Zwart takes a look at a 1949 Gmünd coupe to see how the company has evolved since its earliest days.
The thing to note about the Gmünd-built Porsches is their absolute design simplicity. The phrase "form follows function" gets bandied around a lot, but it really means something when you look at these early cars. However, the minimalism was partially out of necessity. The vehicles were meant to be sporty but certainly weren't rockets. Power came courtesy of a modified Volkswagen Beetle engine, and anything extraneous would have slowed the models down. Scroll down to watch Zwart go back in time to Porsche's beginnings.
