Winning Bidder of the auction (when listed two weeks ago) claimed wife had seizures the night before the auction ended and so he was distraught and could not follow through with the purchase. Then a few days later he offered me $1000 instead of what he had bid for the closing bid (almost $4000) (His reasoning was because he would have to buy an airline ticket to come and pick up the car)...his user name is ncgems57, he will be blocked from bidding on any future auctions. The Porsche 928 won the European Car of the Year award for
1978, It came with aluminum doors which were galvanized for protection. Porsche
upgraded the V8 engine to the 295 Horsepower engine in 1980, this has always
been what created the name in performance for Porsche. If you read any of the
blogs of 928 owners, they all say it is simply an amazing car, with amazing
handling, and amazing speed. This Porsche originally sold for $37,930 Low Retail (by NADA standards) is $8,100 Average Retail is $11,400 While High Retail is $15,200 In its current condition this car is between Low and
Average Pricing by NADA standards. A new owner will NOT be disappointed! This car’s details: This is a beautiful 1980 928 Porsche that is still original,
never having undergone a restoration. The car has had two titled owners, with
the second buyer purchasing the car in 1985 and then changing the color from
Porsche brown to Porsche red. It was done very professionally which is still
apparent. Please note, there are some waterspots in the pictures, it had just rained shortly before I took them. Those are not flaws in the paint. Electric Windows & Seats & Locks. The Porsche has been parked inside storage now for almost 20
years, and is in excellent condition…but of course cannot be expected to be in
perfect condition. I will attempt to list the flaws I have found. First of all,
the car will require a new exhaust system (but truly sounds fantastic without
it). The car starts and runs would expect, before it would start the fuel pump
had to be changed from being stored for so long. It goes down the road just as
would be expected, and stops without problems…the headlights even go up and
down as would expected. The only four things that I can find that it needs
mechanically (besides the exhaust) would be better clean up under the hood to
include either cleaning or adding an additional spring to the throttle. Most of
the time it will pull back all of the way when you let it off the gas, but
sometimes it doesn't travel that last 1/8th of an inch for 15-20
seconds. The passenger window also doesn't go down (Electric windows, driver’s
works great). The electric antennae will also have to be replaced when a stereo
is added, there is no stereo currently. I do not remember if it has AC, I think
it does, but I know it is not charged, and I did not see the tach work when I drove it. As for the body as you can see in the pictures this car is
very clean…the only actual rust spot I could find is a dime size spot below the
rear window on the driver’s side. I also took pictures of the bottom of the
driver’s door which looks as if there eventually might be some paint peeling…the
door is galvanized, so I do not think it is due to rust, and the bottom of the
door is extremely clean. Again, I am simply trying to list everything I can
find so a new owner will not in any way be disappointed. Next, on to the interior…everything is leather, and for an
obvious reason this was one of the only years they also did the dashboard in
leather. As you can see in the picture as the leather dries it pulls at the
seams of the dash, and this one is no different. The interior also smells like
dry leather. The driver’s seat is comfortable, but you can tell the leather is
harder than it should be…the passenger one is even drier. I put leather
treatment on it, but do not really see a lot of difference. In the back seat,
one side has had a baffle replaced, and there are extra baffles that go along
with this auction. The center armrest in the backseat also has some leather
that has cracked and separated. All in all for an original car this is in excellent
condition, but it is also important to realize that it is not in perfect
condition. It will certainly make a collector proud, especially after giving it
a little TLC…but all of the TLC is minor stuff. I am not sure what else I can
say about the car, between what I have listed and what the pictures show…you
can certainly contact me if you want additional questions answered. |

This man literally loves a Porsche [NSFW]
Mon, May 11 2015Think you know what "auto erotic" means? Think again. Because one man in Thailand has redefined the term. Caught on security camera footage this guy lurks into a garage, looks over both shoulders, evidently misses the camera, drops trou and has his way with a Porsche Boxster. When the tailpipe proved too hot (or otherwise inhospitable), he moves up to the radiator grille and – ahem – finishes up there. Sadly this isn't even the first time we've come across this particular perversion. We'd urge caution before viewing the video, not only because it's not suitable for a workplace environment, but because once you see it, you're bound to repeatedly blurt out, "Why, man!? Why?"
Next-generation Panamera will spawn variants, Sport Turismo in the running
Mon, Dec 1 2014A few years ago it took actual willpower not to consider what kinds of cool derivatives Porsche could make with the Panamera. Our fancies were helped by patent drawings of a Panamera convertible, rumors of a two-door 928 GT and internal Porsche sketches of such a car, and report after report after report that the current, second-generation Panamera would begin to expand the family. That hasn't happened, but according to a new report in Auto Express, the next Panamera will be the one to begin the bifurcation. Wolfgang Hatz, the brand's head of research and development, told the mag that, "We have prepared it for a lot of derivatives, personally I like very much the Sport Turismo." The Panamera Sport Turismo, remember, was the hybrid, concept wagon that rolled into the 2012 Paris Motor Show and made everyone ask, "Why didn't you build this design from the beginning?" It could have been Hatz's English, but after professing his ardor for the Sport Turismo, the executive said, "But there is a good chance for more derivatives." We're not sure if that means the Sport Turismo is all but approved, or if he was speaking of the third generation Panamera's new MSB platform in general. Even though Hatz mentioned a coupe and convertible, it sounds like that latter variant won't be happening, Hatz saying that the brand already has the Boxster and 911 Cabriolet. We're willing to forgive that omission – who's really looking for a four-door convertible, anyway? – and welcome the Sport Turismo first if Hatz will please please please get us a new 928.
2022 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance Mega Gallery | The show in pictures
Mon, May 23 2022COMO, Italy — Held annually, the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance is, in many ways, Europe's version of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It takes place in a beautiful location, and it brings together an impressive selection of rare and valuable cars. It's a real treat for the eyes, the ears, and, if you're into champagne, the palate. The 2022 edition of the show was no exception: About 50 cars were shipped to Lake Como from over a dozen countries, and it wasn't just the usual suspects. Sure, there were a lot of pre-war cars (including a couple of one-off models), but some of the icons that younger enthusiasts grew up with (like the Lamborghini Countach) were present as well. This year's event was split into eight categories: The Art Deco Era of Motor Car Design, The Supercharged Mercedes-Benz, How Grand Entrances Were Once Made, Eight Decades of Ferrari Represented in Eight Icons, "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday," BMW's M Cars and Their Ancestors, Pioneers That Chased the Magic 300 KPH, And a design award for concept and prototypes. The jury gave the coveted "best of show" award to a 1937 Bugatti 57 S owned by Andrew Picker of Monaco, while the aforementioned classes were won by, respectively: The Bugatti 57 S, shown below, A 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet, A 1956 Chrysler Boano Coupe Speciale, A 1966 Ferrari 356 P Berlinetta Speciale Tre Posti, A 1961 Porsche 356 B Carrera Abarth GTL, A 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL, A 1989 Porsche 959 Sport, And the Bugatti Bolide concept unveiled in 2020. Winning at Villa d'Este is a big deal: The cars are judged by a panel of highly experienced judges. No one gave me a scoring sheet, presumably out of fear that I'd award points to the late-model Fiat 600 lurking in the parking lot, but several cars that didn't win an award caught my eye. One is a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, a grand-prix racer that was once owned by King Leopold III of Belgium and that has never been restored — its patina is inimitable. Another is a 1961 BMW 700 RS. One of two built (the other is in the BMW collection), it's a tiny, ultra-light roadster related to the 700 and powered by a 697-cubic-centimeter air-cooled flat-twin tuned to develop 70 horsepower. It won several hill-climb events during the 1960s, and it's one of the rarest cars ever to wear a BMW roundel. Aston Martin's freshly-restored 1979 Bulldog concept was cool to see as well; check out the cassette player integrated into the headliner!
