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 918 Spyder officially priced from $845K, Weissach package $84K more
Wed, 23 Jan 2013Porsche has released official pricing for its entire lineup of 2013 models, which just happens to include the upcoming 918 Spyder hybrid supercar. The 795-horsepower advanced-technology-lab-on-wheels is now officially confirmed to have a starting price of $845,000 in the US, which is the exact amount we were told earlier when we had the opportunity to ride shotgun in some 918 Spyder pre-production test vehicles.
What we didn't know at the time was the cost of the Weissach trim package, which is a high-performance upgrade to the standard vehicle that includes the deletion of some interior amenities and addition of lighter-weight carbon fiber appointments, magnesium wheels, flame-resistant upholstery, racing belts and aerodynamic aids - it's meant for track-going folk who intend to use their 918 Spyders as God, country and manufacturer intended.
All told, the Weissach package should drop the 918 Spyder's curb weight by some 80 pounds, while also lightening your wallet of an additional $84,000 - the car's MSRP with the Weissach package is $929,000. These prices don't, however, include destination charges, which, for something like the very limited edition 918 Spyder (only 918 will be made), could very well cost considerably more than your average Porsche.
Autoblog Minute: VW Q3 financial woes, 2015 Tokyo Motor Show
Fri, Oct 30 2015Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. Copyright Office offers a ruling affecting car owners, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. Autoblog senior editor Greg Migliore reports on this edition of Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. Show full video transcript text [00:00:00] Consumer Reports pulls its Tesla recommendation, the U.S. copyright office offers a ruling that affects car owners and gear heads, VW gets hit hard with third-quarter losses, and lots of exciting news from Tokyo. I'm senior editor Greg Migliore and this is your Autoblog Minute Weekly Recap. After a week away testing vehicles for Autoblog's Tech of the Year award, we're back in the office to recap the week in automotive news. [00:00:30] One of the things you might have missed was Consumer Reports pulling its recommendation of Tesla's Model S sedan. The blemish for Tesla comes after a tally of reviews from customer surveys. The most common problem areas for the Model S as cited by survey takers included: the drivetrain, power equipment, charging equipment, body and sunroof squeaks, rattles, and leaks. So lots of stuff. Though they could not ignore a score of "worse-than-average", Consumer Reports still [00:01:00] highlighted the fact that the Model S was "the best performing car" they've ever tested. Telsa CEO Elon Musk took to social media to defend his sedans saying: "Consumer Reports reliability survey includes a lot of early production cars. Already addressed in new cars." And, "Tesla gets top rating of any company in service. Most important, CR says 97% of owners expect their next car to be a Tesla (the acid test)." In Financial news, Volkswagen took a hit and reported an operating loss of [00:01:30] $3.84 billion. This is the first such loss for VW in 15 years. Toyota reclaimed the crown as the world's largest automaker as well. It's important that it's not all doom and gloom for VW though in Q3. Sales revenues were up and the company's automotive division boasts $30 billion dollars in liquid assets. It's a sizable war chest that will no doubt come in handy, as the company has yet to feel the full brunt of the diesel emissions scandal. Good news for gear heads. The US copyright office [00:02:00] ruled in favor of mechanics and car owners by granting an exception to existing copyright law. The law was originally meant to prevent software pirating and bootlegging of Hollywood movies.
Porsche (finally) unleashes full, official details on 918 Spyder
Mon, 09 Sep 2013Porsche has finally let released all of the details on the 918 Spyder, the German brand's challenger to the McLaren P1 and Ferrari LaFerrari, after months of leading our poor, performance-loving hearts on. The covers were lifted at the Volkswagen Group night, an enormous precursor to the Frankfurt Motor Show, and include a massive, 11,000-word press release that's attached at the bottom of this page.
The 918 Spyder features a mid-mounted, dry-sump-lubricated, 4.6-liter V8 engine that generates 608 horsepower when left to its own devices. Combined with a trio of electric motors, which produce 286 hp, the total system horsepower for the 918 Spyder rests at 887 ponies. That's less than the McLaren P1 (903 hp) and the LaFerrari (949 hp), but the Porsche is also likely to be a bit cheaper, starting at $845,000, while the McLaren will be in the seven-figure range for certain, and it will more than likely be joined by the LaFezza.
The 918 Spyder counters with a 2.8-second jog to 62, a 7.7-second run to 124 and it will hit 186 in 22 seconds.
