1986 Porsche 928S model, metallic gray paint with a burgundy leather interior.

Hi.....Welcome to the auction of my Porsche 928S!!  This is one great car which I regret to sell.......and Only selling it as I'm moving on to another more expensive sports car. The car is in very nice condition for it's age and one of the best 928S cars I've seen in a long time. I've personally owned 7 so far and this one is by far the best one I've owned. The paint is not perfect but is extremely nice for an almost 30 yr old car as is the interior. The cars V8 engine seems to be fine and timing belts have been redone (see text below) and engine holds between 4 and 5 bar when driving around 60mph which is GREAT!!! The dash is in good condition and no dash pad or covers are needed! All glass is good too and no cracks....but passengers window doesn't go down..(could be switch...I've just never looked into it).  The only lights on the dash is the "antilock brakes"....the brakes work fine of course and I've never looked into this light as well. A/C just charged and works fine!! AM/FM cassette is installed along with all original speakers/amplifer and hooked up properly. Actually sounds very nice and loud without distortion, cracking or popping. May want to install a nice CD player if you like. The heater and fans work very nice for the winter too, as well as the sunroof, power seats, cruise control, heated rear glass, rear wipers, all lights work on the exterior of the car. No rust I can see on the car either...not on edges or underneath. Car has new tires on the back as well as new/used later model Porsche Cup II wheels. Also installed are newer Porsche 964 mirrors on both sides....the are not hooked up but wires are there. I just never needed it since I was the only driver and set them for my view only. Parking brake works good as it should as well as warning lights/buzzer, etc... Engine oil was just changed recently and timing belt tensioned by Porsche mechanic. Timing belt was replaced twice as far as I can tell from the receipts included in the dash, and last time was around 153K miles or so. The power steering unit has a small leak but can't see any oil leaks! Oh...front shocks for hood are bad...need to replace them if you wish. Also.....the larger wheels/tires scrub just a tiny bit now and then on the rear of the car only. The car has been on long trips to Atlanta and North Carolina and drives great. I would not be afraid to drive this car across the country...it is that dependable....yet please know you're buying a 28 year old car so please don't expect it to be new. Oh.....the drivers seat has a place where the leather has come unstitched...right where the seatbelt comes across......you can see it in the photo a bit. Remainder of leather is really nice for the age....and car has never been smoked in as far as I know. Just 3 owners before me!!! Cargo net in back and most tools are here as well as a spare tire and fire extinguisher in trunk. :)

The car is sold AS-IS of course and due to the rising prices of 928's in Europe....... I feel that this one is a great keeper!! I'm moving on to a different type sports car so that's the only reason I'm selling it. I've tried to think of everything possible to mention about the car.....but if you have any questions......please let me know. Thanks for looking and if you have ZERO or very LOW FEEDBACK.....you must write to me before bid or I reserve the right to cancel your bid. Winning bidder to pay $500.00 Deposit via paypal within 24 hours please to let me know you are serious. I will be happy to assist with your having the car picked up at YOUR expense if you're a bit too far away to consider coming to get it in-person. OH.........just had the rear brake pads changed and rotors turned about 1 month ago.
Thanks for looking and have a blessed day!


 NOTE!! Please know that the A/C was charged just few days ago  (5/1/2014) and works/cools fine!! 
Thanks!!

Lexus leads J.D. Power's Vehicle Dependability Study for 2021

Thu, Feb 18 2021

J.D. Power's latest Vehicle Dependability Study is out, and, not surprisingly, Lexus sits at the top for the ninth time in the last 10 years. Right behind Lexus is Porsche, followed by Kia, which is the highest-ranked mass-market brand in the study. Genesis, last year's top-ranked brand (in its first year included in the results), fell from first to eighth, though the G80 sedan did earn an award in its midsize luxury segment. The Porsche 911 was called out as the Most Dependable Model by J.D. Power for the second time in the last three years. The vehicles being studied are from the 2018 model year, which means owners have had three years to get to know their cars and trucks. It's notable that this year's study shows a marked improvement in overall vehicle dependability as tracked by J.D. Power. The overall level of problems, scored by the number of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), declined by 10% compared to last year.  "The study results validate what we have known for some time," said Dave Sargent, vice president of global automotive at J.D. Power. "Automakers are making increasingly dependable vehicles — but there are still some problem areas that need to be addressed and some warning signs on the horizon." Tesla makes its inaugural appearance on the Dependability Study, though its score of 176 PP100 isn't official. Tesla is the only automaker that has chosen not to grant J.D. Power permission to survey its owners in all 50 states. As we've pointed out in the past, the Vehicle Dependability Study includes eight major vehicle categories grouped by J.D. Power as follows: audio/communication/entertainment/navigation (ACEN); engine/transmission; exterior; interior; features/controls/displays (FCD); driving experience; heating, ventilation and air conditioning; and seats. All issues reported by owners are all tracked equally, which means a problematic phone pairing procedure dings an automaker's rating the same as a blown engine or transmission. And in fact, the ACEN category has more reported problems than any other, which means the majority of problems reported don't lead to a vehicle that leaves its owner stranded.

Porsche Macan fails moose test, Stuttgart responds

Tue, 14 Oct 2014

Different countries have different safety standards, but most of them revolve around a similar set of tests: front impact, side impact, offset impact, rollover... the usual. But Sweden has its own test. It's called the Moose Test (or the Elk Test), and it's unique to Scandinavia: a car has to be able to avoid a theoretical antlered mammal on the road while traveling at 43.5 miles per hour and return to its previous course without flipping over. The Jeep Grand Cherokee ran afoul of the uniquely Nordic maneuver a couple of years ago, but even more surprising is the way the Porsche Macan has reacted.
Under testing by Sweden's Teknikens Värld, Porsche's downsized crossover - specifically the Macan S Diesel, for what it's worth - didn't flip over, but it skidded off course. In real-world conditions, it follows, the vehicle could run off the road or into oncoming traffic. The testers ran the test several times, and even removed excess weight from the vehicle, and each time it reacted the same way.
In response, Porsche has explained that the behavior is the result of its Active Rollover Protection system kicking in. When the system detects that the vehicle could drastically oversteer, flip over or lose its tire, it momentarily applies the brake on the front outside wheel, allowing the vehicle to shed the cornering forces without losing it completely.

This is why we love the Porsche 911 reimagined by Singer

Tue, 11 Nov 2014

In the world of restomods, Singer Vehicle Designs is inarguably one of our absolute favorites. The company, founded by rocker Rob Dickinson, has made its name as an obsessive constructor of vintage, built-to-order Porsche 911s with modern internals and beautiful accouterments.
Xcar has put together a lengthy interview with Dickinson, covering the source of his fascination with the 911 and his passion for automotive design, before falling into his rock-and-roll days with his band Catherine Wheel. He also covers how he got into the world of modifying Porsches, rather than just restoring them. There's much, much more in the video, though, and we promise, you won't want to miss it.
Take a look.
