This Porsche 928 was purchased in 2011 from another private owner.  It was taken care of by the previous owner and I just fell in love with it.  I called this beauty "The Red Rocket".  I have maintained the Red Rocket with regular oil changes and always put Premium Gasoline in the tank.  This car was driven for work over the last couple years and has 121,115 miles (not too bad for a 1979 car).  The body, paint, and tires are all in good condition.  We rebuilt the transmission and installed a brand new alternator two months ago to ensure a smooth and reliable drive.  Power Windows have been worked on and are in good working order.  A new hatchback lock has also been installed.  The dash lights and the Blaupunkt radio are in good working condition.  This car is a automatic transmission, but can be converted to manual if buyer desires.  

I am currently moving across the country and regrettably this Porsche 928 is going up for auction and I hope that someone will enjoy driving it as much as I have over the last couple years.  

The interior is a black leather, very comfortable but considering the car is 34 years old there is some normal cracking of the leather.  New leather seat covers have been installed for comfort.  The external red paint is original.  The body is in good shape.  There are storage compartments in the dash, in the doors and between the seats.  The driving position is fully adjustable.  The breaks on this car work well, but I think they need to be tightened a little.  The passenger side mirror is cracked, but still attached to the car. 

The Red Rocket corners superbly and rides well.  This car has been Smog Tested and has passed all California emissions tests.  The exhaust has been beefed up and sounds great on the road.  This car has MUSCLE and it will MOVE on the road when you hit the gas!  This is a great car for a muscle car enthusiast or a guy/gal that wants a classic automobile.

If you have any questions or if you would like to see the car (located in Venice California), please feel free to contact us at brownscott2000@yahoo.com or call 773.230.3197. 

A fun little movie fact:  The 1979 Porsche 928 is the car driven by Tom Cruise in the movie "Risky Business".  Although this is not the car from the movie I am sure the new owner will feel pretty cool driving a classic automobile like this on the road.

I am a very good Ebay seller and I will answer any question for you and work with the buyer in the best way possible to pickup or ship their new Porsche 928.

HAPPY BIDDING!!!

Evo sets up duel of Porsche 911s

Thu, 20 Mar 2014

What's better, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive? That question has occupied auto enthusiasts for years, and so far, we've not really had a solid answer one way or the other. Evo has opted to take another whack at this tough question by pairing a pair of Porsche 911s against each other for a track battle.
In one corner, we have the two-wheel-drive 911 Carrera S, complete with the lickity-split PDK transmission, a sports suspension and carbon-ceramic brakes. In the other corner, it's the all-wheel-drive 911 Carrera 4S in a much mellower spec, with a seven-speed manual, as well as standard brakes and suspension. While the results seem like they'd be a foregone conclusion, some very British weather is there to act as the great equalizer.
We've got the full video down below. Have a look, and let us know if you agree with Evo's results.

Porsche 911 goes up in flames at New York Auto Show

Thu, Mar 31 2016

It was a bad day for the 2016 DUB Show Tour after a Porsche 911 Turbo associated with the tour caught fire ahead of its 2016 New York Auto Show dates. And yes, the entire fiasco was caught on video. It's not clear how the fire started, but reports from the scene and video footage show smoke pouring off the 911. Worryingly, the fire seems to have been inside the Jacob Javits Convention Center, after New York's NBC affiliate reported smoke "spewing" throughout the sprawling facility. Workers can be heard shouting to get away from the burning 993 while at least one brave soul attacked the flaming sports car with a fire extinguisher. Despite the seriousness of the video, an aftershot – shown above – from the guy behind the video, Instagram user Zuumy, shows that there doesn't seem to be that much damage on the surface. The car just looks very, very dusty and dirty. According to WNBC, the New York Fire Department hasn't received any incident reports about the fire. And while it's part of the show, there's no reference to a 993 911 on the DUB Show Tour's Instagram or official page. Bummer, we know. You can check out the video of the blaze below.

Porsche to decide soon on Bugatti future

Mon, Jun 21 2021

WEISSACH, Germany — Volkswagen will soon decide on the future of its luxury brand Bugatti, Oliver Blume, Volkswagen management board member and CEO of Porsche AG, said on Monday. Last week, Reuters reported that Bugatti was working on a strategic partnership with Rimac, which will likely result in a joint venture between Porsche and Rimac, with Porsche as a minority partner, Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess said in March. "The future of Bugatti is an issue that will be decided on a group level," Porsche said in a statement, declining to comment further. Porsche boss Oliver Blume earlier this year said intense discussions on Bugatti's future were ongoing and that Rimac could play a role as the brands were a good technological fit, adding that a decision was expected in the first half of 2021.
