1984 Porsche 928 S Recent Paint on 2040-cars
Jasper, Georgia, United States
|
Selling my personal 1984 928S to fund the restoration of a '79 928 5 speed and an '85 928S. Super fun car to drive & turns heads everywhere I go. I've put over 3,300 issue free miles on this car. Shifts smoothly.
Painted in July, 2013. Rated a strong 8 of 10 with minor imperfections showing when you look very closely. $2200 spent on body work and paint. They missed one tiny dent on the roof behind the sunroof the size of a dime. This car was originally bronze & the door jams were not painted black. Recently reupholstered light weight Porsche Recaro front seats. Rear seat bases were removed for speakers. Needs interior restoration in hatch area. Dash is cracked, but has a custom dash cover. Very dependable with a huge stack of maintenance records, including original invoice from Porsche dealer in Alabama. Recent tune-up including plug wires & battery. This is a southern car free of rust having spent most of it's life in Alabama & Georgia. Clear issue free Georgia title in my name. OEM Porsche spare tire & jack included. Car has a few minor electrical issues. Gas gauge & engine temp gauge don't work right all the time. I fill up based on the number of miles I've driven. Climate control fan doesn't work. Power windows work, but the switches are broken and bypassed. Power locks and cruise control don't work. Stereo works fine. I installed new front door speakers, but haven't hooked them up yet. Power steering line has a small leak. $110 for a new line, or repair existing line. I have never tried to open the sunroof, as I don't want it to open & then not close. Brakes are good, but pads are approaching the point of needing replacement. Stops just fine. I drive this car on 75+ mile trips on a regular basis. Headlights open & close as they should & were painted as well. Wipers work fine. Odometer works & was replaced by the previous owner with all zeros. Documentation included. I think the total miles is right around 100,000 based on the documents. Now shows just over 3,200 miles. I drive this car regularly & it has proven to be dependable for a 30 year old car. This is a great weekend car or driver, but not a show car. It is now 30 years old. The original front lower spoiler is still there, but has a few cracks & chips. It sits very low & is vulnerable to damage. If you want a replacement, they are available & easy to replace. It has near new Rikken matching tires with great tread life left. If you want the original power seats, I will swap them back & reduce the price $500.00. I have a set of staggered 17" Porsche Carerra 5 spoke rims with Michelin Pilot (rear tires worn to tread mark) if you'd rather have them, I'll swap them out. I've taken the time to accurately describe this car, but may have missed something. I welcome inspections prior to purchase. Fly to Atlanta & drive this car home. Please understand you're bidding on a 30 year old car! If you'd like a show 928, please bid on one that is twice this price. If you want a cool driver or weekend car consider this one. Note terms of payment and abide by the terms of ebay & this auction. If you don't have any feedback, please contact me prior to bidding. This car is available for sale locally & subject to be removed from ebay prior to auction end. If you really want it, use Buy It Now feature. The windshield is crack & chip free. The wheel wells were coated with undercoating last month. All of the gauges in the instrument cluster work with the exception of the fuel gauge & engine temperature gauge which sometimes works fine, other times pegs to the top. I suspect a grounding issue which is common with this car. The headliner is complete & in very nice condition, as are the front & rear sun visors. A large collection of maintenance records, including the original bill of sale are included with this sale, as is the red OEM owners manual folder (manuals didn't come with the car.) |

Porsche planning new 911 Speedster as 550 tribute
Tue, 12 Nov 2013Some look at the emergence of a new Porsche 911 and see a car. But to Porsche engineers, it might as well be a reset button. Because every time a new 911 comes out, it sets off a tidal wave of new variants to follow, including convertibles, turbos, targas, GT3s... the works.
The next down the pipeline, though, could be one of the most desirable. That, according to German publication Auto Bild, will be a new 911 Speedster. When it arrives early in 2015, the special roadster will reportedly be limited to just 550 examples in tribute to the original 550 Spyder.
It'll reportedly have hidden door handles, a chopped-down windshield and a fabric top to be used only in case of emergency, manually disappearing below a carbon-fiber cowling. All of which makes it sounds as much like a bigger version of the Boxster Spyder as a successor to the last 911 Speedster (pictured above), and that's no bad thing at all.
Porsche Cayman S and Caterham 7 go head to head on the drag strip
Fri, 27 Jun 2014We recently saw the standard Porsche Cayman go up against a Subaru WRX STI in a one-mile drag race with surprising results. Apparently, Evo had a similar idea of evaluating the Cayman's quickness. However, it opted for the more powerful S model and chose a flyweight Caterham Roadsport 140 as the challenger. Will the results of this battle be as close at the end of the kilometer-long (0.62-mile) drag?
Neither of these are cars you'd usually associate with drag racing, but they are nearly evenly matched. Evo selected them based on power-to-weight ratio, with the Caterham offering a scant 140 horsepower in a lithe 1,213-pound package. The Porsche is a quite svelte 2,910 pounds but has 325 hp to haul it around.
Of course, power-to-weight ratio isn't everything. There are a ton of other variables like aerodynamics and gearing that play a huge role, as well. Can the little Caterham's weight advantage overcome the better aero and additional power of the Porsche? Scroll down watch the video and find out.
Editors' Choice: Top Five 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show Debuts
Thu, Sep 17 2015Consider the 2015-16 auto show season officially kicked off. The Frankfurt Motor Show offered a great look at the newest crop of production cars and conceptual machines, and brought some old favorites back into the spotlight for a closer look. (The Alfa Romeo Giulia, for example, debuted in June, but this was the first time most of us saw it.) Now that the dust has settled and we're all on flights back to the US, our editors cast their votes for their personal favorites from the Frankfurt show. These are the cars we truly loved seeing the most. But unlike other shows, there was no one runaway winner – all of the Top Five received positive praise from our team. We won't spoil the results, though. Scroll down to see what we liked most from this year's Frankfurt expo. 5th Place – MERCEDES-BENZ IAA CONCEPT View 12 Photos MIKE AUSTIN: The clean lines on this concept have me excited for a more elegant beauty to future Mercedes-Benz vehicles. Next to the Concept IAA, the lovely S-Class Coupe looks like an overstyled barge. DAVID GLUCKMAN: Yeah, the extendable rear is neat and all, but I'm more interested in the front-end styling of this one. It looks like the Tron version of a 300SL, in a good way. I'm hopeful it portends the future of Mercedes design. STEVEN EWING: I was super impressed when Mercedes said that, with the rear end extended, this concept has a drag coefficient of just 0.19. That's crazy aerodynamic. I'm not head-over-heels about the styling, but I think the lessons learned from this concept are really important, and will play a huge role in the future of Mercedes' products. 4th Place – ALFA ROMEO GIULIA View 15 Photos SEYTH MIERSMA: I can hardly express how in love with this car I am. The styling feels creative, modern, and evocative, without going over the top. The proposed performance is spectacular. And the Alfa badge speaks to a legacy of romantic motoring. DAVID GLUCKMAN: Pretty Italian car makes big promises and will probably deliver on about three quarters of them. I think that will still be enough for me. JEREMY KORZENIEWSKI: I'm really intrigued by the Giulia. It looks great, sounds awesome, and I'm expecting it to have a load more character than its German rivals. I hope I'm not disappointed. 3rd Place – JAGUAR F-PACE View 15 Photos GREG MIGLIORE: It's the first SUV for Jaguar, and I think they nailed the design, capability, and electronics. It's the right car at the right time.
