Back in the early 1970s, the Porsche management team decided it was time to build an ?berPorsche, one that would allow long distance traveling at speeds beyond 150mph, safely, without inducing driver fatigue. The car would have to be able to meet any and all government regulations that might be conceived in the foreseeable future. Its code name: 928. Its MSRP when introduced in Geneva back in 1977: $26,500 in base trim, roughly the same price as several contemporary Kia’s.
Always evolving throughout its 17-year production, the 928 began with a 4.5-liter V8 engine delivering 230hp. By 1991, the "S4" reached the pinnacle of the series with a 5.0-liter engine that produces an astounding 316 hp. Along with countless performance, suspension, safety and styling updates, the S4 has a cleaner, sleeker look that is much closer to being a 21st century car than the previous models. The factory proudly called the S4 "the fastest street legal production car sold in the US," a comfortable road rocket, capable of seating 4 while giving contemporary Ferraris, Maseratis, and Lamborghinis a run for their money.
More refined, comfortable, and luxurious than any prior Porsche, the 928 shares one very important trait with the legendary 911: timeless looks. Even 37 years after its introduction, the Tony Lapine-penned 928 design has lost nothing of its breathtaking appeal; like a spaceship from another planet, it is a superb example of the prevailing design virtues of the Seventies.
Viewed from the rear, the 928 still looks futuristic, almost 38 years after its debut. If you're in lust with its shape and desire to drive the Teutonic supercar today, be forewarned though: the 928 is a very complex automobile, and only the best-maintained low-mileage example should be pursued, or the dream of 928 ownership could easily turn into a nightmare.
On May 2, 1991, VIN *WP0AA2923MS810394*, left the factory gates in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, West Germany.
The original window sticker (price $80,634) and stamped Warrantee Voucher confirm the car sold new on March 19, 1992 at Dave Strong’s Porsche in Salt Lake City, Utah.
Making its journey west, the car was loved and cherished by a premium wine maker in Napa.
The current owner is a mature, prominent businessman who keeps the car covered and sheltered in his “man cave” among his private collection of museum quality Porsches in Monterey, CA.
The Porsche comes with all its original books and manuals, as well as all keys, including the valet keys. Ideally, a keeper 928's Owner’s Books has to look like this!
Needless to say, the car's maintenance and mileage history is fully documented. Lots of dealer service stamps entered in the maintenance book and a stack of service records vouch for an immaculate past. Studying the records confirms that the car was pampered bordering on obsession, with absolutely no regard to cost.
There are absolutely no "deferred maintenance" worries. Hence, a unique opportunity arises to obtain a coveted 928 S4, one that has always enjoyed a most beneficial climate and is pampered beyond belief by a mature owner with big pockets and the willingness to pay up for the best service and upgrades money can buy.
Let's check out this dream find now, inside and out!
The exterior, sporting its original black finish looks simply stunning.
All trim and glass remains in near-perfect condition as well.
This S4 has never suffered any damage. There are no door dings, only a few minor blems and rock chips to report.
Hood, hatch and door gaps are in perfect alignment; confirming the 928’s pampered existence for the past 23 years.
Equipped with lightweight aluminum doors and hoods, this Porsche's body is perfectly rust and accident free.
Note the factory-installed electric sunroof; code 650, one of the most desirable amenities available.
Equipped with a wind deflector, it works flawlessly.
Retractable headlights flip-up and down in perfect unison.
The front bumper and spoiler have a few scratches and rock chips
This 928 S4 still wears its original factory-installed chromed alloy wheels (some very minor pitting, see detailed photos).
There is a set of near-new YOKOHAMA ES100 ultra- high-performance radials of the size 225/50ZR16. While we’re down on one knee, let’s have a look underneath.
More important than shiny paint is a healthy undercarriage.
This original chassis presents itself free of any kind of damage or corrosion.
No flaking, no undercoating, just the all-original finishes.
Details, details. Notice that the Porsche 928 features a transaxle design to achieve perfect weight balance, the engine being up front and the transmission mounted to the rear axle housing.
Most importantly, with the exception of a few scrapes and scratches below, there is absolutely NO evidence of corrosion, collision damage or any other mishap that would cause the enthusiast sleepless nights.
Let's look inside now!
Leather, leather everywhere.
Even dash surface and headliner are crafted from the finest aromatic hides. Highly unusual, the dash top is perfectly free of the usual leather shrinkage or warping.
This 928 S4 comes equipped with all the features you would expect of a true luxury automobile.
Among them, a height-adjustable instrument pod and steering wheel, ensuring good visibility for drivers of all sizes, and an automatic climate control system that also cools the glove compartment.
All digital and analog gauges and switches work perfectly and the 37,161 miles shown on the digital odometer are original!
Combining Porsche performance with Mercedes comfort, the seats are extremely comfortable and feature about every power adjustment a pilot could dream of.
Properly nourished, the seats' light gray hides are still soft and supple; there are no rips or tears, no wear marks of any kind.
The 928 S4 being a true GT car, the rear compartment is actually spacious enough for adult use. Interestingly, rear passengers even have their own sun visors!
Ever tried to stow all your vacation luggage, perhaps including a couple of golf bags, inside a Ferrari, Lamborghini, or even Porsche 911?
The 928's luggage compartment is cavernous, and its capacity can be increased even more by folding the rear seatbacks forward.
From the soft cotton car cover and cargo net to the unused spare tire and jack below: almost every factory goodie is still present, large or small. It's the proverbial fussy collector's dream!
How about a quick peek under the hood?
Residing in a toothbrush-clean engine bay is this amazing engineering masterpiece, entirely hewn from Reynolds 390 silicon-and-aluminum alloy.
Similar to the 911 engine, a BOSCH Jetronic injection takes care of fuel distribution.
The bullet-proof power plant is mated to Borg Warner’s finest 4-speed automatic transmission, nestled inside a lightweight Porsche case, which itself is mated to the famous Weissach rear transaxle for a near-perfect 51/49% weight distribution.
With an extensive, documented service history and a major service/system check recently completed, you can safely surmise that this particular engine is healthy as an ox in its prime. Clean as a whistle, there are no leaks, no untoward noises, no bad behaviors. It's a fitting description to call it like new.
Drivability:
From the addictive, burbling sound of the V8 to the feeling of full control at any time, driving the 928 S4 is a visceral pleasure. The car virtually clings to the road during fast cornering; the big, servo-assisted disc brakes can deliver almost 1g of deceleration force.
It's so much fun to drive a sports car equipped with a big V8 engine and automatic transmission. There are no rattles or shimmies, acceleration is impressive, and everywhere you arrive, interested passersby stop to admire this rare Porsche, marveling at the fact that a 23 year-old car can be this pristine in every way.
A true supercar, it could run with the best of Ferrari and Lamborghini in its day, entirely unfussy and without the anxiety its Italian counterparts instill in most pilots. This immaculately cared-for, low mileage, rust free, fully documented example is in museum condition and would be impossible to duplicate.
Manufactured for almost seventeen years, Porsche's superb 928 long ago was elevated to the status of a truly iconic milestone car. Here's a unique opportunity to obtain one of the very best-preserved examples you'll ever encounter.

Audi CEO says brand's EVs are almost as profitable as its other cars
Mon, Oct 4 2021After, oh, a hundred years or so of building vehicles primarily powered by internal combustion engines, automakers around the world have been and still are pumping billions of dollars into the development of electric vehicle technology. Everything from platforms and batteries to motors and the software to control it all requires untold hours of development, and that takes time and money. Fortunately, it's not going to take long for that massive investment to start paying off, at least according to Audi CEO Markus Duesmann, who told Reuters in an interview that "The point where we earn as much money with electric cars as with combustion engine cars is now, or ... next year, 2023. They are very even now, the prices." As a brand, Audi contributed more than a quarter of overall profit for the massive Volkswagen Group, which has such powerhouse brands as Volkswagen and Porsche among others. Under the Audi umbrella are Lamborghini, Bentley and Ducati, and it seems those high-end branches aren't going anywhere, at least for now. "These brands ... are very valuable very profitable brands, where we can even expand the synergy level in the future," Duesmann said in the interview. "There are no plans whatsoever to get rid of them." Despite the overall profitability of the brand, the ongoing global chip crisis is causing headaches. "We had a very strong first half in 2021. We do expect a much weaker second half," said Duesmann, who added, "We really have trouble." In fact, so serious is the trouble that the brand is forced into "a day-to-day troubleshooting process" to limit the chip-shortage damage. The good news for the automaker is that Audi has been able to boost its profit margin from 8% prior to the pandemic in 2019 to 10.7% in the first half of 2021. The bad news is that various chip shortages aren't expected to get a whole lot better over the rest of the year. Related video:
Porsche planning back-to-basics 911 GT
Fri, Jun 5 2015With the latest 911 GT3 and GT3 RS track toys, Porsche clearly put the emphasis on outright performance. After all, if they were all about a puristic driving experience, they'd probably have manual transmissions instead of DCTs, right? Well that's just one point where the Porsche GT division's next project is tipped to depart. According to Autocar, Zuffenhausen's skunkworks are preparing a new addition to the 911 range that will put all the emphasis on the raw driving experience, even at the expense of lap times. The yet-to-be-named model is expected to do away with the second clutch in favor of one you can operate yourself, but that's not all. We're told to expect skinnier tires to make it easier to hold at the limits of adhesion, the narrowed track from the base Carrera, and the absence of large wings and other aerodynamic features. The inspiration apparently comes less from the GT3 than from the new Cayman GT4. Look for the new back-to-basics Elfen to arrive sometime next year, after the rest of the 911 range gets updated with turbo engines. Chances look good, though, that this particular model will stick with the atmospheric boxer six. Related Video:
Lanzante building 11 Porsche 930 restomods with actual F1-raced engines
Fri, Oct 12 2018In " Casino Royale," James Bond gets a lesson in tailored clothing when Vesper Lynd gives him a new dinner jacket. Bond tell her he already has a jacket, and Lynd replies, "There are dinner jackets and dinner jackets. This one is the latter." News from Lanzante makes us paraphrase that line in saying, "There are 911 restomods and 911 restomods." Lanzante's is definitely the latter. The English engineering firm is building 11 Eighties-era Porsche 930s with genuine TAG-branded Porsche engines that the McLaren Formula One team used to win 25 races. From 1984 to 1987, Porsche built a 1.5-liter turbocharged V6, branded as the TAG-Porsche TTE P01, for the McLaren MP4/2 and MP4/3; if the naming seems odd to cover four years, it's because McLaren raced the MP4/2B and MP4/2C in 1985 and 1986. The engine produced more than 1,000 horsepower in qualifying trim, and 750 hp in race spec. In its first three years on the grid, the engine powered McLaren to two Constructor's Championships, and three Driver's Championships for Niki Lauda and Alain Prost. During that time, McLaren built a prototype Porsche 930 with that TAG engine, but kept it so far out of sight that people spoke of it as a rumor. The English carmaker finally proved the rumor true a few years ago when it put the prototype on display in the lobby of its Woking headquarters. Enter Lanzante, which has a history with McLaren going back to at least 1995, when it prepped the Veno Clinic McLaren F1 GTR that won Le Mans that year. More recently, it built road-legal P1 GTRs called the P1 GT, and a one-off P1 Longtail. McLaren sold Lanzante the 11 engines for this run of monstrously overpowered Porsche coupes, and Lanzante showed off the first example at the recent Rennsport Reunion at Laguna Seca — news that somehow got lost in the general Porsche overdose and Moby Dick revival. Built just like the original McLaren-Porsche prototype, no one will think anything's astray with the new version's white bodywork and RUF wheels. The camouflage continues inside, where a pair of upholstered racing buckets might offer a small clue. The instrument panel gives things away, containing a tachometer branded "TAG Turbo" with a 9,000-rpm redline, and a water temperature gauge. Cosworth is restoring the engines for the program, and each of the 11 examples gets a plaque in the engine bay listing its engine's race history.
