Clean 1987 928 S4 for sale. no trades. I've owned the car for 7 years aftermarket: RMB (rear muffler bypass sounds deep and throaty; puts a smile on your face every time you start it up)(don't have the muffler anymore) Momo Steering wheel and Shifter dyed to interior burgundy color. Hi intensity headlights, $1200 windshield with radio antenna, aftermarket CD/radio with removable faceplate condition: clean car. I haven't tracked the car. It was one of a number of old or classic cars I have or hard and didn't use it much up until the last year or two paint: is original I believe but I think the front bumper had been resprayed before I bought it. Paint shows good up up unitil a foot away. has some chips all round. has spider crack around rear pass. lens, (see picture) light scratches in various places. but for a 27 year old car with original paint, I think it shows good. interior is very good. new front seats; has a dash pad split over instrument cluster which was repaired but it came back (see picture). Last 7 year maintenance history (I have all the major service receipts, most parts purchased from 928 International) I bought the car in March 2007 with 79k miles and it needed alot of work. Here's what I did in 07 at 80k miles ( closer to $10k than $5k) Engine: timing belt and new water pump new expansion tank fuel filter new alternator suspension and steering: shocks and springs all around (boge) replaced pressurized power steering hose rebuilt power steering rack alignment a/c head unit (x 2) 12/2011 at 84k service and upgrades ($5k plus) Major brake service: front brake rotors, discs and pads rear parking shoe set front and rear brake pad sensors resurface rear rotors new master brake cylinder fuel filter new OEM front seats (covers) 2012: replaced all four gas struts (engine bay and hatchback) numerous other small repairs over the past 7 years (sunroof switch, rear hatchback switch, engine hood pad, etc.) tires and wheels: Black wheels purchased in February 2013 from Tire Rack (forgot what they are) tires are all about a year and a half old with only a few thousand miles.no appreciate wear fronts and rear passanger are Failkens. Driver's rear is a similiar tread Dunlap. Needed a quick tire change and there was a delay in getting another Failken, so I had the closest one put on. Haven't noticed any difference in the last year, so I haven't replaced the Dunlap. recent new battery (in the past 6 months) it's got a trickle charger plugged into the battery. recent service (last month) oil change (full synthetic) fixed brake sensor light via electric harness repair steering shaft bushing replaced Known issues: heater control valve inoperative. a/c works excellent. heater doesn't unless the valve is manually closed which is a pain. It doesn't get cold enough in Northern California for me to worry about heat so I don't mess with it at the service last month, I had my well regarded porsche shop go through the care since I was planning on selling it and he noted the following as recommendations: v belts and rib belt crack in oil cooler hoses seeping trans cooler hoses leak res to pump hose The car doesn't leak anything to the ground and needs no fluilds top off. I'm going to let the new owner decide which if any of these recommendations to attend to. Reason for sale: I moved to california not too long ago and I wanted a modern convertible porsche, so I bought a 996 t cab. I don't have room to keep the 928. If I did I wouldn't sell it because it's a fun and classy car and I have so much money into it (probably between 15 and 18k in maintenance and upgrades) car is registered in Texas, but currently in the Sacramento Ca. area.

Le Mans-winning Porsche 956 up for auction at Pebble Beach
Sun, Jun 21 2015Collectors looking to get their hands on a piece of racing history will want to be in Monterey this August. That's where Gooding & Company will be auctioning off the genuine Le Mans winner you see here. One of the finest examples of the Group C era, this 1982 Porsche 956 won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1983 – the eighth time the German marque won the legendary French endurance race, en route to the record seventeenth win it racked up at La Sarthe this year. This 956 was the third of only ten examples made, complete with Rothmans livery and unimpeachable history. It debuted at Le Mans in 1982, where it placed second behind another Rothmans-liveried 956, and went on to win the next four races it entered. The following year, the two Porsches switched places in the winner's circle at Le Mans, securing this car's place in the annals of racing history. Now set to cross the auction block at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance, Gooding projects this most historically significant Porsche to fetch between $7,000,000 and $9,000,000 once the gavel drops. According to the Sports Car Market database, that would make this the most valuable Porsche ever sold at auction, eclipsing the 1972 Porsche 917/10 Can-Am racer that Mecum sold for $5.83 million in Monterey three years ago. It would also far exceed the ˆ2.35 million ($3.15m) paid at RM's auction in Paris last year for another Rothmans-liveried 956 that completed the 1-2-3 finish at Le Mans in '82. That is, assuming 956 #003 sells this time: the last time it crossed the auction block, it failed to sell after a high bid of $2 million. Le Mans-Winning Rothmans Porsche 956 Roars its Way to Gooding & Company's Pebble Beach Auctions SANTA MONICA, Calif. (June 19, 2015) – Gooding & Company, the official auction house of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance®, is thrilled to announce the addition of one of the most important and desirable competition cars of all time to its Pebble Beach Auctions. The 1982 Porsche 956, chassis 003, was the outright winner of the 1983 24 Hours of Le Mans and the most successful example of this revolutionary and dominating series of Group C cars. The sale of this factory Porsche racing machine presents an incredible opportunity to own a significant piece of motorsport history and it is sure to be a highlight of Gooding & Company's internationally renowned auction, taking place on August 15 and 16, 2015 in Pebble Beach, California.
Porsche revisits the 911's dirty side with rally history film
Fri, 03 Jan 2014It might not be a coincidence that there are rumors of Porsche revealing a safari version of the 911 at April's Beijing Motor Show, just as the Dakar Rally is about to begin. Adding fuel to the dusty desert fire is a just-released official video of Jeff Zwart driving the Porsche 953 that Jacky Ickx drove to victory in the 1984 edition of the race.
In the video, the seven-time Pikes Peak International Hill Climb winner talks about how he grew up with the 911; it wasn't only the car he learned to drive in, it was his choice of racecar no matter whether the course was tarmac or the dirty stuff.
You can decide for yourself if these recent events are mere coincidence while you enjoy the 953's exhaust note in the video below. If you've got the time to see the 953 during its race-conquering drive and find out what the ersatz Paris-Dakar Rally used to be, we've also included a broadcast of that 1984 race below as well. Fast-forward to 19:44 to see the Porsches cross the open dessert and 29:09 to watch one of them tackle the dunes.
