You are viewing my 1985 Porsche 928S. This car is truly for the vintage sport car enthusiast. It has never been performance modified, raced or been required to go through a major restoration to bring it back to life from a neglected ownership.

 

The low miles shown on the working odometer are actual. It has never been involved in any sort of accident. There is no rust through on any part of the sheet metal structure, all the body panels are exceptionally straight and are in perfect alignment.

 

 

The new owner of the car will not be disappointed. This is an excellent example of the classic 32 valve S3 series coupe. Read on for a more detailed description of the overall condition of the car.

 

 

The interior is in excellent condition. There are no rips, open seams or tears on the leather sport comfort seats front and rear. The brown wool carpet is in very good condition with the exception of the piece on the rear deck that has sun faded and worn. The dash/instrument panel is excellent, but (not uncommon) there are a few (3) hairline stress cracks on the top surface of the dash panel. All gauges are in working condition, upgraded stereo, lights, fans, windows and heat controls work as well. The AC system is fully charged and blows ice cold air.

 

The engine starts right up with no smoke or oil consumption. It idles smoothly with no unusual noises. Oil pressure holds steady and high when fully warmed up. The car runs and drives very well. The 4 speed auto automatic transmission shifts smoothly and quietly. Suspension and steering are very solid with no rattles or wheel shimmy.

 

When I purchased the car, it had been off the road since 2001. As part of the mechanical refresh to make it roadworthy ago the following services were performed:

 

Upper Engine – new cam cover gaskets, cam end seals, all new vacuum and oil separation hoses, new high pressure fuel lines, TPS, Laso water pump, Timing Belt, rebuilt TB tensioner, new (old stock) OEM spark plug wire set, new Bosch fuel pump, fuel injectors and much more. Service part receipts and a full photo documentation of work progression are available upon request.

 

Common maintenance items - new battery, belts, brakes and  Dunlop 225/50-16 speed rated tires at all 4 corners.

 

Cosmetic Upgrades – new Porsche tinted front glass with built-in antenna, professional quality base coat\clear coat paint re-spray in the original Grand Prix white color, earlier model quarter glass rubber with rear spoiler delete kit and H4 Euro headlights.

 

 

 

I have tried to include as many pictures to depict the true condition of the car. Please e-mail if you have specific questions. Please keep in mind that the car is 29 years old and although excellent condition for its age, due to normal wear and tear, have realistic expectations for a vehicle that been in service all these years.

 

This car is being offered in a no reserve auction with a very modest starting price.  Please email and I will promptly assist you with any questions you may have. Please read the good and bad in the description above.  I will make myself available for anyone requesting a physical inspection

 

 

 

Terms

 

The winning bidder must confirm bid with a $300 non-refundable deposit within 3 days of close of auction. The balance is due within 10 days. This car is sold as-is where-is. Local buyers are always encouraged to inspect in person before bidding. If you would like to have the vehicle shipped, let me know and I can make arrangements with your vehicle shipping provider after the listing closes. Buyer pays actual shipping costs.

Watch Evo pick its 2015 Car of the Year in this epic video

Mon, Dec 7 2015

With just a few days left in 2015, it's the perfect time to check out Evo's annual Car of the Year test to determine the greatest performance vehicle of the last 12 months. The writers' picks for the 11 finalists spanned a breadth of engaging models and included: Peugeot 208 GTi by Peugeot Sport, Lamborghini Aventador SV, Seat Leon Cupra Sub8, McLaren 675LT, Porsche 991 GT3 RS, Porsche Cayman GT4, Honda Civic Type R, Ferrari 488 GTB, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Lotus Evora 400, and Mercedes-AMG GT S. For the venue to test the mettle of these performance machines, Evo stuck close to home this year and visited the twisting roads at the beautiful north coast of Scotland. Racing brothers Marino and Dario Franchitti also came along for the ride to provide two more voices in the competitive challenge to determine a winner. Evo's video explains why each model deserves to be among such rarified company but doesn't gloss over their faults either. There can be only one winner, though. We don't want to spoil it, so check out the clip for magnificent views of these performance machines through the Scottish countryside.

Techart modified Porsche 911 Turbo S packs 620 hp, 0-62 in 2.8 seconds

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Considering how many absolutely ridiculous tuner cars are featured in Geneva (stay tuned to see plenty, as our coverage continues), it's often refreshing to see some of the more modestly modified cars, like this new Porsche 911 Turbo S from the folks at Techart. Visually, there's a subtle body kit, new wheels, a new spoiler, and some lame decals on the front end, but it basically ends there. That's because Techart's mission is really about higher performance. Increased dynamism, as the Germans say.
An ordinary 911 Turbo S produces 560 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. But the Techart kit adds 60 hp and 96 lb-ft to those already high numbers, for a coupe that dishes out a total of 620 hp and 612 lb-ft. Techart says that, in Sport Plus mode, its modified 911 Turbo S will accelerate to 62 miles per hour in just 2.8 seconds, and the top speed has been increased to 204 miles per hour. Crazy stuff.
To further drive its performance upgrades home, Techart has fitted this 911 Turbo S with a sport exhaust system with valve control, for a more robust exit interview, at the push of a button. We imagine it sounds awesome. Have a look at the Techart Turbo S in the gallery, above.

1983 Motorweek showdown pits Porsche 928S vs. Chevy Camaro Z28

Mon, Jan 12 2015

Last month, Motor Trend threw the Camaro Z/28 and Porsche 911 GT3 into the bear pit and let them fight it out. Way back in 1983, MotorWeek had the same idea, comparing the Camaro Z/28 to the Porsche 928S. At the time, the Camaro was America's best selling sports coupe, the 928S was Porsche's top-of-the-line model that also had the highest top speed of any car sold here. And the price differential was even more stark then: $13,600 for the Camaro, $45,000 for the Porsche. That put the Z/28's cast-iron, 5.0-liter V8 with 190 horsepower and 240 pound-feet of torque against the all-aluminum 4.7-liter V8 with 234 hp and 263 lb-ft in the 928S. Even with that and the Camaro being 14 inches longer than the Porsche, the American was a surprising 40 pounds lighter than the German. The show took them to Summit Point Raceway in West Virginia to see how close a relative performance bargain could hang with a the German GT. Both had five-speed manual transmissions, but the high-speed corners and tight sections of Summit Point would test other handling variables, including the "bone-rattling" Camaro's solid rear axle and disc and drum brake setup vis-a-vis the four-wheel disc brakes and independent suspension on the "firm-but-smooth" Porsche. Paradoxically, the larger disparity 22 years ago resulted in a closer result. Check out the video to see how the Summit was won.
