Porsche 928 S4 1991 Black/grey Automatic Beautiful. on 2040-cars

 First, let me say that this is a strong and beautiful car.  The exterior is as new, with no issues.  Check out the pictures.  It runs like a watch and doesn’t burn or leak a drop of oil.  I have had it for fourteen years and it has been my daily driver.  I would not hesitate to get into it tomorrow and drive it across the country.  And I am a fanatic who keeps the exterior amazingly beautiful for a 23 year old car.  You will find no better example!

The problem occurred when I moved from Chicago and wasn’t aware of the negative affects of the strong south Georgia sun.  The driver seat dried out and cracked as you can see from the pictures.  The passenger seat shows signs of wear but is still in good shape.  One of the rear seats also needs replacement, although the other rear seat is perfect.  The dash is perfect with no signs of wear, shrinking or cracking.  The top portion of the leather steering wheel needs to be re-stitched, but the leather is perfect.  The body has no rust, no dings, bubbling paint or cosmetic issues, and is as new.  The paint is amazing, shiny and looks better than when it came out of the show room.  I still get compliments and head turns on it at the grocery store.  The tires are Sumitomo HTR Z II's and have about 40% tread left.  The wheels are the very expensive upgraded Porshe turbo 18" wheels for this year and are beautiful, with color Porsche crests.

There are some minor electrical problems.  The passenger side tail light assembly is intermittent, comes on sometimes and not other.  The headlights open and work fine but the glass holding the H4 bulbs leaks moisture. They do not need replacement, just to be thoroughly dried out and then re-sealed.  The windshield has a crack on the passenger side and the car does run very rough on cold starts until it warms up, then it purrs like a kitten.  It fires up normally when warm.  My dealer tells me it is a temperature sensor that needs to be replaced.  But there are three sensors on the 928 and, since he doesn't know which it is and I live on SS, I do not want to pay the exhorbitant service charges from this Porsche dealer to track down the problem, so I put up with cold starting the car and waiting a few minutes for it to warm up.

The car has a computer built into the dash that warns you of all faults.  The computer works flawlessly but warns that the rear axle fluid needs to be changed (see pic).  This warning is based on time of service rather than any flaw in the axle fluid.  My dealer told me to ignore it.  The power windows, power sun roof, power trunk opener, 8-way power seats with memory and rear seat A/C work flawlessly.  The driver side power mirror and rear wiper need to be diagnosed as they do not work.

This has been and still is a nice car, and a head turner.  All service records will be included with the sale.  With a little patience, some seat reupholstering and minor electrical work, it will provide many more years of service.  The Carfax report is clear and clean.  I am including the Garmin 4.5" GPS and the original Porsche 2000 page dealer Shop Repair Manual on CD with the car.  I am 71 years old and simply don't have the patience to work on cars anymore.  But my laziness can profit you greatly in this purchase.  I can arrange shipping with a carrier that I trust and have used twice before, with perfect results (at your expense).  This is a “no reserve” auction.  I require a $500 deposit within 3 days of the auction closing and the balance at pickup, all in certified funds.
