1987 Porsche 928 S4: Gorgeous, 38k Orig. Mile, 2 Owner, Sunroof 928 S4 on 2040-cars
Year:1987
Mileage:38079
Location:
Santa Barbara, California, United States
|
Offered for sale is a beautiful, 38k original mile,
mechanically strong, two owner 1987 Porsche 928 S4, finished is its factory
correct and ceaselessly tasteful Diamond Blue Metallic over Navy Blue leather. Ordered
new by its original owner in Columbus, Ohio, he would own the car for the
ensuing 24 years, always keeping it garaged and maintained and always using it
as a weekend driver. In 2011 he sold the car to an acquaintance, a gentleman
with a large Porsche collection that owned a regional automotive parts
franchise. The second owner had known of the car for years, as he’d sold many
of the parts it needed for routine maintenance. In the two plus years he owned
the car, he rarely put many miles it, and consequently the original 38k miles
showing on the odometer is correct and documentable via Carfax and the car’s
stamped service booklet. When the 928 first hit the showroom floor, it was
absolutely the car to have. As Porsche’s first seriously expensive GT car, the
928 drew the ire of Porsche enthusiasts worldwide upon its announcement. But as
soon as they realized it wasn’t built to replace the beloved 911 (just to compliment
it in an enthusiast’s garage), opinions changed. A big V8 Autobahn bomber, the
928 was far more civilized than the 911, boasting big comfortable seats, power
everything, usually an automatic transmission and all the Star Wars/Reagan era
futuristic design elements that a successful 1980’s man could ask for. From
Cannes to Beverly Hills, if you were somebody you would have walked into a dealership
and bought a 928 S4. Whether making a vacation trip from Milan to Monaco or Los
Angeles to San Francisco on business, the 928 was (and arguably still could
be), the car of choice, providing a wonderful drive quality without frustrating
your wife. It’s a true GT cruiser; extremely comfortable with a V8 that has
great torque, making smooth, enjoyable driving effortless. Furthermore, in
following with Porsche’s legendary legacy, the handling is great and the looks
are timeless. The Diamond Blue Metallic finish is in excellent
condition, deep, lustrous and marred only by the most negligible of
imperfections, none of which are significant enough to register in the
pictures. The car’s body is entirely straight, free of dings or evidence of
body work, and all of the panel fits and gaps are consistent and factory
correct. The glass and rubber is excellent original shape, as are the original
alloy wheels, wrapped in tires with plenty of remaining tread. The car’s
interior is equally as clean, the navy leather seats and carpets showing only
minimal wear. The power sunroof, power seats, power windows, power rear hatch
locking device and all of the other electronics work exactly as they should,
and the car retains its original, functional Blaupunkt Reno radio. For that
matter, everything on the car is stock – it hasn’t been modified in any way. The car is also excellent mechanically, feeling like a
tight, well-maintained, 38k mile example should. Despite its low miles, the car
was always regularly driven and serviced and always garaged and professionally
detailed. It starts effortlessly, producing a low rumble to announce its 316hp
5.0L V8. It’s smooth through all of the gears, pulling with incredible force
when asked. With its quiet cabin and even drive quality, it’s very easy to look
down at your gauges on the freeway and realize you’re doing 95mph when you
assumed you were only a hair over 70. Despite the fact it’s a front engine V8,
it’s still a Porsche and it performs with poise in the canyons as well as on the
freeway. We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further
discuss it and answer any questions, so please feel free to email us or call us
at 805-202-4557. You can also visit us online at GoodmanReed. Goodman Reed Motorcars We’ve always had an appreciation for classic European cars and over the

Porsche caught testing sub-Panamera-sized sedan
Wed, Jun 1 2016Anyone remember the Porsche Pajun? It was supposed to be Porsche's long-rumored entry level sedan before it mostly dropped off the radar. Now, it might have blipped its way back onto our screens, thanks to a series of spy shots showing what on the surface looks like a Panamera. While our spies point to this being a coupe mule riding on a shortened version of the Panamera's platform, we're leaning towards a smaller sedan. Even with the rear windows obscured, the wheelbase and driver's seating position (which we'll admit is remarkably low and coupe-like) seem wrong for a two-door model, even a disguised one. The cutlines in the rear doors look too deep to be camouflage, and based on the look of those door handles, the rear doors are definitely real. As for what's not real, we wouldn't read too much into those rivet-like things at the front and rear. They're just there to secure the camouflage. We might not be on the same page as our spies about what this car actually is, but they make a strong argument for its eventual styling, which should be a mix of 911 and Panamera. There's a slim strip of taillight hiding beneath the rear camo – you'll need to zoom way in, but the white housings are there – that reminds us of the new 911. It should be more Panamera in the front fascia, aside from the headlights, which might be the only styling element that draws inspiration from the 718. Based on the state of this car, we're thinking it's still quite early in the Pajun's development process. Whether the development timeline lines up with this 2019 prediction remains to be seen.

Porsche Mission E set for launch by 2020
Fri, Dec 4 2015Porsche will bring the Mission E electric sedan to production by 2020. The company's board just gave the thumbs up for further development of the vehicle on Dec. 4. "Even in a greatly changing motoring world, Porsche will maintain its front-row position with this fascinating sports car," Dr. Wolfgang Porsche, chairman of the supervisory board of Porsche AG, said in the model's announcement. The Mission E debuted at the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show as a long-slung sedan in a mix of aluminum, steel, and carbon-fiber reinforced polymer. The concept featured two permanent magnet synchronous motors with over 590 horsepower, all-wheel drive with torque vectoring, and four-wheel steering. Porsche claimed that the model could reach 62 miles per hour in less than 3.5 seconds and offer a 500-kilometer (310.7-mile) range on the European testing cycle. Plus, the brand alleged the vehicle could lap the Nordschleife in less than eight minutes. The concept version also boasted an 800-volt charger to provide 80 percent of the range just 15 minutes after the driver plugged it in. We won't know for some time how much of this cutting-edge tech will actually arrive on the production version, but building the Mission E will coincide with 700-million euros ($765 million) in updates to the Porsche factory in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. In the coming years, the company will upgrade its engine factory to assemble electric motors. The automaker will also add a new paint shop, assembly plant, and enlarged body shop there.

It will be launched at the end of the decade. The supervisory board of the Porsche AG today gave the green light for the Mission E project. Mission E, Concept Car, Press Conference IAA , Frankfurt, 2015, Porsche AG With the Mission E project, Porsche is continuing to back sustainable growth. In Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen alone more than 1,000 new jobs are being created. The company will be investing around 700 million euros in its main site there. Over the next few years, a new paint shop and a new assembly plant will be built. The existing engine factory is also being expanded for the production of electric motors. In addition, the existing body shop is being enlarged.
Ex-F1 driver Mark Webber has tough life, shakes down Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Fri, Apr 24 2015It's good work if you can get it, and Mark Webber has got it. The works driver for the Porsche World Endurance Championship Team was apparently asked to moonlight in a video shoot for the company's new 911 GT3 RS at the Nurburgring Nordschleife, and what do you know, he complied. They don't appear to be going too quickly, and a racing driver asked to rein in what will be one of the most blistering cars we'll see this year must be very serious work, because Webber doesn't appear to be smiling at all. We'll guess there's a big smile on the inside, though, and some tales to tell to his Porsche teammates at the next WEC race. Maybe the next time we see the 911 GT3 RS at the 'Ring, it will be doing the timed lap we're all waiting for. Related Video:
