This 928 S4 is hands down a fun car to drive and makes me smile every time I drive her.  She starts effortlessly and produces that strong sounding rumble letting you know that you got a 316hp 5.0L V8 sitting under the hood.  The automatic transmission goes through all the gears and the suspension feels tight.  It accelerates, shifts, and stops just like it should.  The paint and body is in decent shape, but we repainted the sunroof and front bumper due to the clear coat flaking off.  This car looks good considering it is 26 years old.  It also has that rare GTS style rear bumper panel with the reflective strip that runs between the tail lights.  Haven't seen too many like that, but it does make it stand out from all the other S4s.  Very sexy looking car.

This car was recently gone through by our Porsche 928 technician/specialist.  Some of the recent work done to this car includes:

Speedometer serviced and tested by a speedo calibration service shop
Smog pump belt
New front and rear Velozza tires
New CD/radio unit
New battery
Horn repaired
Passenger side taillight repaired
Sunroof and front bumper painted
All 4 wheels painted

The car does have some flaws, so please check out the photos.  The dash has some cracks and the driver seat has some tears.  The passenger seat is actually pretty decent.  There are a few stone chips (as expected) on the front.  There may be little scratches or tiny dents here and there, but nothing major.  The AC does not work.  The passenger side fog light plastic lens has a crack in it, but the light still works.  Original spare tire and tools are missing.

The description above was done to the best of my ability, however, with all pre-owned vehicles, the condition of any vehicle is subjective to the viewer.  We recommend that any potential buyer to come out and inspect the vehicle themselves or reach out to us with any questions.  Shop open Mon-Fri (9am-5pm) Sat by appointment only.  The mileage represents the actual miles when the car was placed on eBay.  The vehicle may accrue a few more miles from moving around.  If you have any questions or would like more information call the shop at (717)838-5660 or if you are a texter (717)842-0177.  EBay messages work too.

Condition Disclaimer
Vehicle is sold as is - with no warranties or guaranties expressed or implied.

We reserve the right to end any auction early should we deem it necessary.  However this is extremely rare and has never happened on my watch, but we thought you should know.  It's possible.

The balance of the purchase price MUST be paid for by cash in person, cashier's check (like you would get from most banks & credit unions), or bank wire transfer.  We do not accept personal checks, credit cards, Paypal, drafts, or escrow services.  We will work very hard to make the process go smoothly and quickly for you.  If you arrive to pick up your vehicle and do not have an acceptable form of payment you will be denied delivery of the vehicle until an acceptable form of payment is received.  These are the only forms of payment that we accept, so if this is not acceptable to you then please do not bid.  Final payment must be made within 7 days of the close of the auction.  There are no refunds or cancellations once payment has been made as all sales are final on all eBay related transactions.  If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Here's how to follow this weekend's 24 Hours of Le Mans

Thu, Jun 11 2015

In the pantheon of motorsports, the 24 Hours of Le Mans stands as one of the great endurance challenges to man and machine. This year's event in France already looks to be one for the ages with Porsche setting record-breaking times in practice and the competition debut of Nissan's front-engine, hybrid racer. Thankfully, there's a massive list of ways to follow this automotive attraction. Reilly Brennan, the Executive Director of the Revs Automotive Research Program at Stanford University, and a friend of Autoblog, has once again assembled a helpful couch-kit to organize many of the options. Unfortunately, the old-school way of just turning on the television might be the most frustrating way to watch Le Mans this year. Fox Sports 1 and 2 are carrying about half the race, but the coverage bounces between them seemingly at random. The broadcast begins on Fox Sports 2 at 8:30 AM Eastern ahead of the 9:00 AM start and lasts there until 12:00 PM. Things don't pick up again until 7:00 PM Eastern on Fox Sports 1 for an hour, and the channels swap back and forth more from there. The Fox Sports Go streaming app offers more, but even it stops showing the race a few times. Thankfully, streaming Le Mans is easy. If you can't dedicate 24-hours on the couch, Radio Le Mans lets you listen to audio commentary anywhere with some of the best announcers in the biz. The Automobile Club de l'Ouest, the governing body for the race, also offers an official video stream in an app for $9.99. For a really low-tech solution, the official Twitter is another choice. Brennan is keeping his list updated with coverage changes. You can also check out and download the spotter's guide (from Nissan) in the gallery above. Enjoy this year's race. If you miss anything, don't worry; expect a full report from Autoblog. In fact, editor-in-chief Mike Austin is attending Le Mans this year, so follow him on Twitter for on-the-fly impressions.

5 new EVs that make driving fun

Thu, Jan 25 2024

One of the things enthusiasts bellyache about the most is electrification. The noisiest complainers say that EVs will suck the fun out of driving and can’t possibly be as engaging as a roaring gas engine. ItÂ’s undoubtedly true that the noises EVs make are not always as visceral and thrilling, but itÂ’s also true that electrification has ushered in a new era of performance that gas vehicles simply cannot match. WeÂ’ve gathered a list of EVs that donÂ’t suck to drive. We all know by now about Tesla and its Plaid models, which absolutely set the quarter-mile ablaze with their amazing acceleration figures. The vehicles on this list don't come from Tesla. Nor does the list include some highly anticipated performance EVs that will soon hit the market, such as the new 2024 Porsche Macan. This selection may be a bit short on range compared to tamer models, but at the same time, itÂ’s hard to ignore their specs and even harder to ignore the sensation that a full-throttle electric powertrain delivers. LetÂ’s dive in to see five new EVs that make driving fun. Porsche Taycan PorscheÂ’s gas-powered vehicles are among the most exciting on the road, so itÂ’s not surprising to see the automakerÂ’s first electric effort as a home run. The Taycan is available in a staggering number of configurations, ranging from the 375-horsepower base model to the massively powerful Turbo S models with up to 750 horsepower in temporary boost mode. Classic Porsche styling and high-end tech round out the package, making the Taycan one of the most desirable EVs today. That said, the TaycanÂ’s almost $91,000 starting price puts it out of reach for a majority of car buyers, and the prices keep steadily rising along with the performance. It also trades range for performance, as the least powerful variant is the most efficient, returning 242 miles with the extended-range battery. The car can take advantage of fast charging, however, and can recover up to 80 percent of its battery capacity in just over 22 minutes.   Kia EV6 GT How about a Kia that can out-accelerate many supercars, especially from a few years ago? The EV6 GT comes with two electric motors with a combined 576 horsepower and 545 pound-feet of torque. Its 0-60 mph time lands at just 3.4 seconds, and the EV offers a top speed of 161 mph, making it one serious Korean EV. At the same time, it features the standout styling of the standard model, which gives it a striking curb presence and a futuristic look that is unique among EVs.

Automakers not currently promoting EVs are probably doomed

Mon, Feb 22 2016

Okay, let's be honest. The sky isn't falling – gas prices are. In fact, some experts say that prices at the pump will remain depressed for the next decade. Consumers have flocked to SUVs and CUVs, reversing the upward trend in US fuel economy seen over the last several years. A sudden push into electric vehicles seems ridiculous when gas guzzlers are selling so well. Make hay while the sun shines, right? A quick glance at some facts and figures provides evidence that the automakers currently doubling down on internal combustion probably have some rocky years ahead of them. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles is a prime example of a volume manufacturer devoted to incremental gains for existing powertrains. Though FCA will kill off some of its more fuel-efficient models, part of its business plan involves replacing four- and five-speed transmissions with eight- and nine-speed units, yielding a fuel efficiency boost in the vicinity of ten percent over the next few years. Recent developments by battery startups have led some to suggest that efficiency and capacity could increase by over 100 percent in the same time. Research and development budgets paint a grim picture for old guard companies like Fiat Chrysler: In 2014, FCA spent about $1,026 per car sold on R&D, compared with about $24,783 per car sold for Tesla. To be fair, FCA can't be expected to match Tesla's efforts when its entry-level cars list for little more than half that much. But even more so than R&D, the area in which newcomers like Tesla have the industry licked is infrastructure. We often forget that our vehicles are mostly useless metal boxes without access to the network of fueling stations that keep them rolling. While EVs can always be plugged in at home, their proliferation depends on a similar network of charging stations that can allow for prolonged travel. Tesla already has 597 of its 480-volt Superchargers installed worldwide, and that figure will continue to rise. Porsche has also proposed a new 800-volt "Turbo Charging Station" to support the production version of its Mission E concept, and perhaps other VW Auto Group vehicles. As EVs grow in popularity, investment in these proprietary networks will pay off — who would buy a Chevy if the gas stations served only Ford owners? If anyone missed the importance of infrastructure, it's Toyota.
