THE ULTIMATE GERMAN MUSCLE CAR... Dr. Porsche's Grand Daddy of Grand Touring. Roomiest of all the 2-door Porsches. Creature comforts galore.
FEATURES & OPTIONS:
This was the first year for the 928 having newer technology features such as dual airbags, digital information system, PSD (traction control) and RDK (Tire Pressure Monitoring System.) That's right, DUAL AIR BAGS and TPMS in 1990. Outside of the car being 95% original, the only factory-like modern-day upgrades are a stainless steel bezel package, "real" carbon fiber overlay package, modern style black leather shifter, stainless steel LED "illuminated" shift plate, and better interior lighting using LED's. NOTE: Because of the low mileage of this classic, all original important gaskets and seals were replaced including the bigger more expensive ones such as both door seals and the rear hatch seal. This "pure-bred" is now ready to transport to its new owner. To secure your place as the new owner, a deposit equal to 10% of the selling price will be required 48 hours at end of listing. New items include: gaskets, seals, license plate illumination lamp assembly's, re-wrapped re-stitched black leather steering wheel and pod cover, raised black leather center console armrest, stainless steel interior trim package, carbon fiber overlay kit, tires, brakes, discs, and rims. The dual A/C (Air Conditioning) system was recently pressure tested and recharged and is fully operational both front and rear. The glossy triple-black smoked glass look gives it a very exotic stance and makes for one of the best looking color combinations in a 928. Class and muscle combined. The quality of paint is hard to describe as it has a depth of two meters or more. A true mirror finish. You can read print fonts two meters away in the paint reflection of this "pure-bred." This is the best black paint finish I have seen in an exotic car in years dues to Porsche's quality in the application process. When the paint was being refurbished, it was "blocked". For those familiar with this body shop term, it means that only one panel at a time is worked on until it is perfected (polished) before moving on to another and then another until the entire body is complete. This is as professional as it gets in proper paint polishing. Along with the original black leather interior, all factory electrical and electronic features are in perfect working order. This specialty 928 makes for a great collectible for the exotic collector. Especially now that Porsche and Volkswagen will be sharing automotive assembly plants, parts and platforms. You saw the headline: VOLKSWAGEN TO ACQUIRE PORSCHE. You know what that means? The value of this "pure-bred" just went up. 100% Porsche built and Porsche owned. No compromised platform here as will occur with newer Porsche models in the future. SPECIAL BUYERS NOTE: This Porsche is being sold from a private collection. Not from a dealer lot or dealer inventory. This way you get to communicate directly with the owner. Not some third party who knows next to nothing about the drivability and true ownership experience. Just one more reason to acquire this black beauty, today. |

Porsche updates 919 Hybrid racer for 2015 season
Sun, Jan 18 2015Porsche's grand return to the elite level of global endurance racing showed mixed success in its first year. The company did score one victory in the 2014 FIA World Endurance Championship season during the race in Brazil but finished in third place overall among the three factory manufacturers. Porsche is hoping for a few more wins in 2015 and is releasing its first shots of the updated car to achieve those triumphs when things kick off in April. The team's racer is still called the 919 Hybrid, but Porsche promises this second-generation version is a "comprehensive evolution" compared to last year. The most obvious change is the redesigned front end where the styling now features a simple horizontal intake running across the front (compare to 2014, below). The nose area also now flares out to the windshield. The side grows a more complicated look, though, with a series of fins just behind the driver compartment. Porsche isn't divulging many details about anything different under the skin. The 2015 919 is still propelled by a 2.0-liter turbocharged V4, and an electric motor powers the front wheels. There are also two energy recovery systems. In addition to the previous challengers from Audi and Toyota, Porsche has one more competitor in the factory ranks this season. The Nissan GT-R LM Nismo is rumored to be a radical departure from the rest of the field with an engine possibly located in front of the driver. Read the German brand's very brief release about the updated 919 Hybrid below and click through the gallery to see how it looks. Track debut for 2015 Porsche 919 Hybrid Stuttgart. Extensive testing with the second generation of Porsche's Le Mans prototype will begin on January 18, on Abu Dhabi's Yas Marina Circuit. As scheduled, this marks the start of the 2015 motorsport season for the Porsche Team. The new Porsche 919 Hybrid has already had its roll-out on the Weissach test track. As a next step, there will be several performance and endurance tests before the WEC season opener on April 12 in Silverstone, Great Britain. The new Porsche 919 Hybrid is a comprehensive evolution of the successful car that made its debut in 2014. It will feature the same innovative drivetrain concept consisting of a 2-litre V4 turbocharged petrol engine, an electric motor powering the front wheels, and two energy recovery systems. The new generation car had its first roll-out on December 15, 2014.
Porsche kicks off Macan production at revamped Leipzig plant
Sun, 16 Feb 2014After over two years of construction and roughly 500 million euros ($684 million at current rates) invested, Porsche finally opened its Leipzig, Germany, factory expansion on February 11. The improvements to the plant are dedicated to building the Macan and include a new body shop, paint shop and assembly line that are advancing Porsche's goal to sell 50,000 Macan's per year. The company believes that the new model is going to push it to over 200,000 annual sales 3 years ahead of schedule, and the enlarged branch can support even more Macan production, if there is demand.
"We are totally convinced in the qualities of this location and that the Macan will be a marketing success," said Porsche Chairman Matthias Müller during the opening celebration. The company opened its Leipzig factory in 2002 to build the Cayenne and added Panamera production in 2009.
The Macan models are due to launch in the US this summer with prices starting at $49,900. Scroll down to learn all of the details about the Macan's Leipzig assembly plant.
Meet the main man behind the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3
Fri, 30 Aug 2013We have yet to catch our breath from our first drive of the 2014 Porsche 911 GT3, but if you're still not sold on the fact that this track-ready 911 is only offered with a PDK transmission, then you should take it up with Andreas Preuninger. Preuninger is the guy who led the team responsible for the latest GT3. Porsche has released a video giving a little backstory of what went into the development of the car, which had as its goal the creation of a pure, rewarding 911 driving experience.
The video captures the sights and sounds of the GT3 perfectly. Perhaps the best part is listening to Preuninger describe one of the defining moments that resulted in replacing the GT3's manual gearbox with the PDK. We don't want to ruin the video for you, so scroll down to check it out for yourself.
