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!!!

Supercar parade entering highway is mesmerizing

Thu, 09 May 2013

In what must have looked and sounded to motorists on the M6 like an invasion of The Swarm, a parade of 50 enthusiast gems leaving a charity event were caught shooting down the on-ramp and merging into traffic. There were plenty of Porsches joining the 959 and Ducktail above, Aston Martins going back to the badboy V8 of the last millennium, a Ferrari Testarossa, a TVR and numerous other Easter eggs.
There were not, however, plenty of turn signals, with someone counting just five among the fifty engaging in proper use of the blinker. One reason put forth for that is the same reason we're posting this video, which is from last Summer, below: "because supercar." Enjoy.

1949 Gm?nd Porsche shows the birth of an icon

Fri, 21 Mar 2014

The 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.

Porsche recalling 4,400 911, Boxster and Cayman models over hood latches

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

Porsche has issued a "precautionary" and voluntary safety recall affecting some 4,400 sports cars across the globe. Here in the United States, the recall includes 1,382 911, Boxster convertibles and Cayman coupes, all of which are from model years 2014 and 2015.
Porsche will be replacing the lock bracket for the front cargo area (the frunk) after internal testing revealed that, while the vehicles meet "strength requirements," specific parts might not meet the company's quality standards throughout the vehicle's life. There have been no reports of accidents or injuries.
Owners of the affected cars will be notified within 60 days and will need to report to a nearby dealer for a free repair, which should take about 30 minutes.
