I just added some photos of the engine, etc. along with the vin#. and some addtl. info provided by a fellow Ebayer. For sale is a very nice example of the first year Porsche 928. It is an extremely rare European delivered model. The American -vs- European models differ in that the Euro models are sleeker. Euro models only have one side rear view mirror on the drivers side, and do not have the considered unsightly rear side reflector markers. This 928 is completely original, interior, exterior, etc. This 928 is in very very good condition. No rust that I can see. The pictures will speak for themselves. The only reason I am selling her is because I just dont drive it very much. It starts, runs, and drives excellently. This 928 is a 5 speed manual model. Tires and brakes are in excellent working order as well. The only thing that does'nt work is the in dash cassette/radio. I realize that most folks would likely want to upgrade the radio anyhow. An interested party did some research on my 928. Here is what he kindly informed me of; 

Regarding the vin# 9288102430, the 8 after 928 indicates the Model Year, 8 for 1978.
The 1 incicates that it is the European Model with 177kW/240PS, American models have a 2 instead (169kW/229PS)
The 0 means Coupe
and the last 4 digits are the ongoing serial number. So, the European models like this one have more horsepower (240 hsp -vs- 229 hsp) than do their American counterparts. The auto can be seen, and driven in Carmel, Indiana. Pls. feel free to call me with any questions. Thank you! Brian 317 771 9294

Porsche 918 Spyder could lap the 'Ring even quicker [w/video]

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Porsche had a lot to crow about at the Frankfurt Motor Show last week. Not only did it debut the new 50 Years edition and Turbo versions of the 911 and the new hybrid and diesel versions of the Panamera, but while unveiling the final production version of the new 918 Spyder, it revealed the record lap it set around the Nürburgring.
The 918 Spyder's 6:57 lap time makes it the fastest street-legal production car ever to lap the Nordschleife and the first to break the seven-minute barrier. But the driver who clocked the time thinks it can go even faster.
That driver was Marc Lieb, who has won the Nürburgring 24-hour race four times, making him something of an expert on the subject. In speaking with Australia's Drive TV, Lieb suggested that they could get even more out of the car, as you can hear for yourself in the video below.

Porsche Panamera wagon won't come to America until 2018

Mon, May 2 2016

Porsche has teased us with a wagon version of the Panamera for years now. First as the Panamera Sport Turismo concept at the 2012 Paris Motor Show, and more recently we've seen prototype spy photos of extended rooflines Panameras as well. Now Automotive News confirms that the wagon is not only in the works, but that it will be sold in North America. "We have to have some patience for [the wagon] to arrive in the U.S.," Porsche Cars North America CEO Klaus Zellmer told AN. "But we are confident that this car will be well received here, despite the fact that this country doesn't really like hatchbacks or wagons." Wagons are particularly popular in Germany, encouraging local automakers to continue developing and producing them even as they expand their crossover offerings. Only some of those make their way across the Atlantic, however. Though Audi, for example, offers Avant wagon versions of its A4 and A6 models, it brings only the latter over in ruggedized Allroad trim. Mercedes similarly offers wagon versions of the C-Class, CLA, and CLS back home, but only sells the E-Class wagon in America. And BMW keeps the Touring version of its 5 Series back home while brining over only the 3 Series wagon. Porsche is slated to reveal the new Panamera in four-door form at the Paris show in September, with the wagon version to hit the European market sometime next year. Don't expect to see the five-door model in US showrooms, then, until 2018 at the earliest.
