1984 Porsche 928 S Coupe 2-door 4.7l on 2040-cars
Kirkland, Washington, United States
|
This is a 1984 Porsche 928S. It has a few issues but at this age that's not to be unexpected. The engine is strong, the transmission is strong. Starts right up every time. New battery within the last 12 months. New alternator within the last 6 months. Timing belt changed around 136,000 miles. New tires in the last 18 months (less than 4,000 miles on them). Interior is very good. It's a good sports car, particularly for someone that will put the time and effort into it. Needs repair: Speedometer works, mile-o-meter does not. Car has been on 146,258 for the last 3 years. I have two 928's, this one and a 1988S4. They are my 3rd and 4th vehicles respectively. I estimate that I've driven the 1984 "S" approximately 8,000 miles since purchasing it in 2009. I bought the 1988 S4 after the "S" and began to drive the 1984S less. Leaks oil, although not much, also leaks transmission fluid. The leaks show on the pad in the garage but I haven't had to replace the pad in the 4 years since I bought it. As I mentioned, the fuses sometimes will lose contact causing the windows to work inconsistently. Could be the switches as well. I've been putting my time into the 1988 S4 and just have not gotten to the 1984 S yet. |

Why you must buy an air-cooled Porsche 911 now
Fri, 14 Feb 2014"Because" might be a good response to our headline, but as a vintage (purists might call 'proper') Porsche 911 is hardly cheap, we suspect you'll need a better explanation than that. Enter Drive editor Mike Spinelli.
Spinelli sits down with Zac Moseley and Mick Prichinello from Classic Car Club Manhattan to first explain why the market for old, air-cooled 911s has gotten so hot over the past few years, and to discuss if it's a bubble that's about to burst. Following that, this video is really is just three guys sitting around talking about old Porsches for 35 minutes. Which, you know, we're pretty onboard with.

Drive-up bank robbery perpetrated with Cayenne and WRX
Sat, 14 Sep 2013Thieves carried out what appears to be a movie-script-perfect robbery of a bank in Sydney, Australia early on Friday morning, using two stolen high-performance vehicles in the process.
At around 11:15 AM local time, in near mid-day light, reports say that two men in masks smashed into the side of a Westpac bank in a confirmed-stolen black Porsche Cayenne. The perpetrators were armed with sledgehammers according to witness reports, and took only about five minutes to take what they were after inside of the bank.
The rapid getaway was executed in a Subaru WRX, also confirmed as a stolen vehicle, while witnesses snapped camera phone images of the illicit goings on. One Twitter user posted a few of the images to his social media feed; you can take a look at them in our small gallery below. Follow on down for the full video report, from The Sydney Morning Herald.
All Porsche 911s to get turbos in 2015?
Sun, 19 Oct 2014Currently, Porsche builds two turbocharged 911s - the Turbo and the Turbo S (and their cabriolet counterparts). The rest of the 911 range, meanwhile, is motivated by either 3.4- or 3.8-liter flat-sixes of varying outputs. This clear separation could be set to change in the very near future, though, as rumors continue to swirl that Porsche's rear-engined range could switch exclusively to turbocharged power.
This time, it's Car projecting that the 911 range will go turbocharged as part of a mid-cycle refresh, with the base Carrera's 3.4-liter dropping to 2.9 liters and adding an iron lung, bumping the entry level 911 up to 400 horsepower. Yes, a 400-horsepower, entry level 911. The Carrera S, meanwhile, will retain its 3.8-liter engine, but will also benefit from turbocharging, increasing output to 530 horsepower and 520 pound-feet of torque. So basically, it sounds like the current, 520-hp 911 Turbo will become the next Carrera S.
What does that mean for Porsche's traditional high-performance models? Well, it's a safe bet that the Turbo, Turbo S and eventual GT2 will be producing seriously huge power figures. Based on pure speculation, we wouldn't be shocked to see a 600-hp Turbo, with the S and GT2 increasing output markedly from there.
