1985 Porsche 928 S 5.0L V8

Up for auction is a well maintained 928 S. This is a Classic mid 80's German gran touring coupe. I've enjoyed this classic 928 for the short time I've owned it. Unfortunately I have new ventures to tackle and I need to sell it. I'd have no issue to continue to own it if my situation was different. I truly enjoy the way it drives for such an old car. I looked around for a few months before deciding on this one. It's not perfect and those that do their research on the 928 know it's short comings and it's blessings. I feel I found one that fit's what I was looking for just right. Sure there are a few things here and there that, depending on the buyer, might need attention, but for this price and the condition of the 928, I don't feel you will go wrong snagging this one up.

It is a 20+ year old car, so it's not in perfect condition. However, the engine, transmission, brakes (minus parking brake, needs tightening) engine cooling, idle, cold start, warm idle. running temperature are all in great condition. All lighting works fine. Pop up head lights function correctly and look cool doing so. Fog lights both function. All turn signals and brake lights work except third brake light. Brake light out warn light comes on when started, then turns off or can me manually turned off. This 928 has seen much maintenance to keep it up to date and road ready. New water pump, steering pump, shocks, belts, brakes and tires.The 928 tracks great and still has decent acceleration and great breaking. No smoking or leaks. Power door locks work great. Rear hatch release doesn't work correctly and must be opened with the key. The power windows work fast up and down, but are temper mental. Like all older 928s, there are some electrical issues. The power windows and rear hatch release are the only known electrical issues. There are a couple of small cracks on the dash that are near the windshield and are almost unnoticeable. The rest of the dash is clean and smooth. The driver's seat shows some wear through the cloth bolsters, but there are no other rips, cuts, tear or worn areas in any of the other seats. Seats are cloth gray pin-stripe.The 928 has been re-sprayed. There are some signs for overspray on fine areas around the black trim, but nothing major. The paint is smooth and even and has a nice pearlescent shine throughout. There is a quarter size rust spot that is bubbling up, but has not penetrated through the paint yet. All the glass is in great condition and the front and rear have new sets of Bosch wipers.

I have two sets of wheels and tires that will go with it. The phone dial wheels currently on it are new, with new tires. There is no curb rash on the phone dials and the gray paint is still glossy and smooth. The slot style wheels that came with the 928 have some curb rash and the tires have 50+% of tread life left on all 4. I also have a set of Ruger, Porsche Fuch style wheels with a modern look that will sell separately. The front are 8.5x19 and 11x19 in the rear. They are gloss black with a polished lip and color Porsche logo on each center cap. I did not install these. Never had time. They are still NIB and have never seen tires and only have come out of the box for pics. (2 only). The other two still are sealed in the box and never removed. I will sell the set for $1,300, OBO, if anyone is interested. I also will include a short shifter I purchased from 928motorsports, still NIB, never installed.

I've tried to list as much as I can about it. If you have any specific questions I will be happy to answer as best as I can. I'm sure I left a few things out in this description. I'll try to get some other pics up as well and if you are a serious buyer and would like a specific pic, let me know and I'll get you your request.

(I'm selling this vehicle while I'm on deployment. I'm due back at the end of March, but I would like to have this completed before then so I can have time to spend on other projects while home for a short time. I have sold and bought other vehicles while being overseas. I actually bought this 928 while on deployment. So it's not an issue to conduct all the transactions over the phone and internet. Please call or send me a message if you are truly interested. 956-358-1842 cell. Please do not text as I'm overseas and I will not get them nor can I answer calls, but I can check my VM, so leave me a message and I will get back with you.)

All the best to those interested! Happy bidding!

Are you the 2017 Porsche 911 GTS Targa?

Sun, Nov 30 2014

Our spy shooters have caught a strange, mash-up beast wearing a Porsche badge. Superficially, this is a facelift for the 911 Targa that features new bumpers, door handles and a redesigned engine cover, along with new light graphics for the front and rear lights. But have a look around back, and you'll find two inboard exhaust pipes; they aren't right up against each other as on the 911 GT3, but are spaced about five inches apart. The shooters said the first time they saw that arrangement was last winter, on a convertible during testing. We saw it again more recently in spy shots of what was thought to be the 911 GTS coupe prototype at the track. But when the production GTS arrived, it wore the traditional quad-pipe at the corners. The theory put forward by the spy photog: the current GTS has a naturally aspirated engine, but facelifted prototypes they've been seeing all have turbo engines, so this could be the facelifted Targa coming in 2017, after the 991-model 911 gets a refresh. In that case, the GTS coupe prototype at the track would have also been a post-refresh, turbo-engined GTS. It's only a hypothesis, but more than one outlet has reported that Porsche is going all-turbo for the updated 2015 models – the new exhaust position and those 911-Turbo-like vents could be their identifiers. We expect to find out when the lineup is unveiled at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show, possibly codenamed 992 instead of 991.2.

Porsche 918 Spyder to birth stretched 2+2 version?

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

Porsche is known for its ability to spin off a litter of variants from a single model, and according to a report in Automobile the 918 Spyder (pictured here) might not be spared the house trick. Having taken too many brains and too much money for too much time, company chiefs are said to be examining ways to get more for their development euro out of the supercar, and Plan A is apparently otherwise known as Plan 984. That would be a four-seater, rear-wheel drive supercar that uses a stretched mold of the 918's carbon fiber tub, keeping the V8 in the same mid-mounted place and costing around 350,000 euro.
That would be less than half the MSRP of its inspiration, but the details don't sketch out a car that's just half as good. Automobile speculates it would get something like 700 horsepower in order to best the coming 911 GT2, and about 440 pound-feet of torque. The 984 is quite a ways short of being confirmed; even though a full-size study is said to exist, it's like the 918 would need to become a bigger sales hit for the 984 to happen.
The 984's fortunes don't change those of the 960, the supercoupe Porsche is building to challenge Ferrari. Its potential specs haven't changed since the last report in January, power coming from a 5.0-liter, twin-turbo, eight-cylinder boxer engine with something like 650 hp pushing a curb weight of roughly 3,100 pounds. The means a suspected 0-to-60 mile-per-hour time of 2.5 seconds.

Aston Martin renames Vantage GT3 after Porsche throws hissy fit

Mon, Mar 23 2015

Porsche has a long history of using the name "GT3" for its hardcore, naturally aspirated 911 models, and that means it's certainly not going to share it with the likes of Aston Martin. See, it seems the arrival of the Aston Martin Vantage GT3 at the 2015 Geneva Motor Show didn't sit well with Stuttgart, which opted to lawyer up. According to Goodwood Road and Racing, attorneys from both sides of the Channel have been in discussion for months over the issue, with Porsche arguing it's been using the GT3 name since 1999, and that makes it theirs. Aston, though, argues that the FIA GT3 racing series makes the name fair game for road cars. Moreover, the Brits point out that the alphanumeric was in use well before Porsche got its mitts on it – GRR rightly points out the Lotus Esprit GT3 hit the streets three years before the 996 GT3. And while we're on the subject, Bentley has its own GT3, but we're guessing its status as one of Porsche's siblings means its immune to this kind of squabbling. Rather than getting into a knock-down, drag-out courtroom brawl with one of the Volkswagen Group's prized brands, though, Aston has taken the high road. The company will rechristen both the road-going Vantage GT3 and Vantage racer as the GT12. While Porsche is no stranger to aggressively protecting what it views as its closely held vehicle names, we have to admit, it seems like Aston actually has something of a case. Do you think the Brits were right to settle and change the Vantage's name, or should they have taken the fight to Porsche? Have your say in Comments.
