1984 Porsche 928 S Recent Paint on 2040-cars
Jasper, Georgia, United States
|
Selling my personal 1984 928S to fund the restoration of a '79 928 5 speed and an '85 928S. Super fun car to drive & turns heads everywhere I go. I've put over 3,300 issue free miles on this car. Shifts smoothly.
Painted in July, 2013. Rated a strong 8 of 10 with minor imperfections showing when you look very closely. $2200 spent on body work and paint. They missed one tiny dent on the roof behind the sunroof the size of a dime. This car was originally bronze & the door jams were not painted black. Recently reupholstered light weight Porsche Recaro front seats. Rear seat bases were removed for speakers. Needs interior restoration in hatch area. Dash is cracked, but has a custom dash cover. Very dependable with a huge stack of maintenance records, including original invoice from Porsche dealer in Alabama. Recent tune-up including plug wires & battery. This is a southern car free of rust having spent most of it's life in Alabama & Georgia. Clear issue free Georgia title in my name. OEM Porsche spare tire & jack included. Car has a few minor electrical issues. Gas gauge & engine temp gauge don't work right all the time. I fill up based on the number of miles I've driven. Climate control fan doesn't work. Power windows work, but the switches are broken and bypassed. Power locks and cruise control don't work. Stereo works fine. I installed new front door speakers, but haven't hooked them up yet. Power steering line has a small leak. $110 for a new line, or repair existing line. I have never tried to open the sunroof, as I don't want it to open & then not close. Brakes are good, but pads are approaching the point of needing replacement. Stops just fine. I drive this car on 75+ mile trips on a regular basis. Headlights open & close as they should & were painted as well. Wipers work fine. Odometer works & was replaced by the previous owner with all zeros. Documentation included. I think the total miles is right around 100,000 based on the documents. Now shows just over 3,200 miles. I drive this car regularly & it has proven to be dependable for a 30 year old car. This is a great weekend car or driver, but not a show car. It is now 30 years old. The original front lower spoiler is still there, but has a few cracks & chips. It sits very low & is vulnerable to damage. If you want a replacement, they are available & easy to replace. It has near new Rikken matching tires with great tread life left. If you want the original power seats, I will swap them back & reduce the price $500.00. I have a set of staggered 17" Porsche Carerra 5 spoke rims with Michelin Pilot (rear tires worn to tread mark) if you'd rather have them, I'll swap them out. I've taken the time to accurately describe this car, but may have missed something. I welcome inspections prior to purchase. Fly to Atlanta & drive this car home. Please understand you're bidding on a 30 year old car! If you'd like a show 928, please bid on one that is twice this price. If you want a cool driver or weekend car consider this one. Note terms of payment and abide by the terms of ebay & this auction. If you don't have any feedback, please contact me prior to bidding. This car is available for sale locally & subject to be removed from ebay prior to auction end. If you really want it, use Buy It Now feature. The windshield is crack & chip free. The wheel wells were coated with undercoating last month. All of the gauges in the instrument cluster work with the exception of the fuel gauge & engine temperature gauge which sometimes works fine, other times pegs to the top. I suspect a grounding issue which is common with this car. The headliner is complete & in very nice condition, as are the front & rear sun visors. A large collection of maintenance records, including the original bill of sale are included with this sale, as is the red OEM owners manual folder (manuals didn't come with the car.) |

Porsche 911 2.7 RS values up by nearly 700% in the last 10 years [w/video]
Thu, Jan 1 2015These days if you have a wad of cash to invest in a classic car, Ferrari seems to be the best option. Hagerty's price index for the Italian supercars was up 43 percent in 2014, and Prancing Horses made up eight of the highest-selling vehicles at auction for the year. However, if you really want to watch your funds grow faster than practically any other legal investment, it might be worth setting your sights north of Maranello to Porsche in Germany. According to research from the Discovery Channel, the 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS is the quickest-appreciating vehicle in the past decade, at least in the UK. In 2004, prices hovered around 65,000 pounds ($101,350 in current money), but buying one today would set you back over 500,000 pounds ($779,600). Rarer lightweight models go for even more. More than just a solid investment, buyers get what is considered to be the ultimate expression of the early 911. Built as a homologation special for racing, Porsche used the classic tactic of fitting a larger engine to boost power to about 210 horsepower while simultaneously cutting weight. A lower front air dam, extended fenders for wider wheels and ducktail spoiler at the back made sure the grip, aero and styling fit the motorsports attitude. You can get a brief taste of what it's like to drive one of these rare Porsches in the video from The Telegraph below. This one is even for sale, with an ambitious price of around 600,000 pounds ($935,000), and it also features legendary racer Derek Bell's autograph on the ashtray. Hopefully the car's eventual buyer remembers that the RS is a fantastic piece to drive, too, and stretches its legs every once in a while.

Porsche picks Maria Sharapova as brand ambassador
Tue, 23 Apr 2013Russian-born tennis superstar Maria Sharapova has just inked a three-year deal with Porsche to be its brand ambassador, a position that will put her on a global campaign for the German automaker. The 26-year-old athlete isn't new to the role - she previously signed a similar three-year deal with Land Rover in 2006.
"Maria Sharapova is an exceptional athlete. She combines top performance in her sports with elegance and power. These are precisely the qualities that are embroiled in our sports cars," explained Matthias Mueller, CEO of Porsche AG, during the announcement. "Her profile and charisma are an ideal fit for Porsche. She is also highly respected around the world and enjoys an outstanding reputation," he added.
Some consider Porsche's choice of a female tennis player as its ambassador interesting, if not surprising. The automaker has traditionally marketed its vehicles with a masculine edge - Sharapova and the sport of tennis position the brand in a different light - likely an intentional decision. Do you think Porsche's choice was a good one? If not, who would you choose as its global ambassador?
