The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections. ...

My Story: Alright, here's the story and I'm sticking to it. I had a 1982 928 which I sold about 5 weeks ago to purchase this this 1987 928. The previous owner was a gentleman from Boston, Massachusetts. He was sellling the car on ebay just about 5 weeks ago. He bought the car from the owners in Texas about a year before (his story from his Ebay listing is below).

Anyway, I fly to Boston and met this guy and he's basically a RedSox version of me. Likes cars, watches, and nice things. He was very forthright with me, picked me up at the airport, delivered the car and I drove it back from Mass to Texas, 2000 miles. The car rode beautifully and I was thoroughly impressed. I intended to keep this 928 and immediately contacted Sean Ratts (if you're a Rennlister you know who he is) and Sean gave it a look over for me. He gave it two thumbs up. That made me feel good. So I had the a/c charged and we talked about some repairs that I would do in the coming months, including replacing the motor mounts. That was pretty much all we could see was visibily needed. The car has just over 44k miles.

Anyway, last week the Boston guy calls me and tells me that the Porsche 911 4S he bought from an enthusiast in California is up for sale. The 4S has a GT3 package and had a list price of $122k. He asked if I wanted it, so I said "yes" if I can sell this 928 and my 2002 911 4s. You will see my 911 4S also is up for sale.

So the ONLY and I MEAN ONLY reason I am selling my 928 is because this damn 911 4S he has is so incredibly sweet and I can't afford to have both cars (plus the other two I have).

WHAT YOU GET: You get the car as it currently sits with the original chrome wheels in the pic with fairly new tires (less than 3000 miles). The car is Venitian Blue, with blue interior.

This car rides so smoothly and has zero vibration in the wheels or braking. It is very quite with the exception of a little vibration in the dash when you take off (hence the need for new motor mounts). The other repairs Sean and I discussed were things to do while you had the engine off the mounts, i.e., oil pan gasket, etc...

Because I intended to keep this 928, last month I contacted Rob Budd at Classic Nine Leathers and ordered a newly recovered dash and pod. They are scheduled to arrive today (june 7). I paid $1600 for both. Receipts will be provided. They have not been installed as of yet. You will have to have that done.

So you get the car in the pics, with a new dash and pod recover in blue. The car has ordinary wear and tear, but I feel it is necessary to state the obvious. This car is being old AS IS, WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY. And while the old owner gave me a bunch of receipts, the car is 26 years old and almost every part on it is 26 years old! Sounds silly for me to say that, but for some folks I guess you have to say it.

Porsche 928s are beautiful, beautiful cars. They ride incredibly well. I want to keep this car, but I need the cash from the sale of this one and the other 911 to buy Boston guy's 911 4S.

Lastly, I have a detailed listing from Park Place Porsche in Dallas where the car was serviced by the 1st owner (a 60 year old woman).

Boston Guys Story: (from his Ebay sale to me 6 weeks ago).

Selling my 1987 Porsche 928S4. This is basically a ONE OWNER car that was purchased in February of 2012 from the original owner in Texas. It was owned by a wealthy woman who bought it new for her 60th birthday! Car has original 43,XXX mileage. The car is in perfect running condition and drives like new, no rattles or shakes, accelerates great and stops perfectly straight. It is well equipped and does have the rare rear AC system.

Although it was always garaged and mileage is low, I have went through this entire car over the past year doing thousands of dollars worth of needed things, both cosmetically and mechanically. I have all the reciepts for the work performed and it has had all the major maintenance done such as timing belts and rollers, oil pan gasket, complete tune up, CV boots and other miscellaneous things. Additionally, I went through the interior, steering wheel has been restored(stitching let go), front seats reupholstered using highest materials from Classic 9(drivers seat was worn and couldn't match perfectly). Car is all stock with the exception of the stereo, it has been upgraded with an Alpine unit that is very correct looking along with the addition of an alpine amplifier and very nice high end speakers that fit perfectly in the factory locations and look correct using factory grills. Car presently has brand new 19" wheels and tires as you can see in the pictures. I also have the factory wheels which happen to be the rare factory chrome versions of the flat style wheels, tires are new on the factory wheels. Mechanically the car is 98% perfect, not that I know what the 2% is that it needs, but nothing is ever perfect. Cosmetically the car is 95% perfect on the exterior, one or two minor blemishes/scratches as you might suspect, the interior is 95% perfect as well, the only thing that doesn't look "new" is the dash which does have small cracks but nothing that distracts from the cars overall quality.

I presently have a moderate car collection which includes amongst other cars, three Porsches. If I were to compare this car to a BRAND NEW car I would give the exterior a 7/10, interior 8/10 and mechanics a 9/10. Compared to other 928's of this vintage 1987-1990, this car is by far a superior example in terms of both overall condition and necessity for maintence and upkeep expenditures. As you likely know, you can buy one of these cars for $7k with 100k+ miles on it and then spend $5k+ to make it anything close to "nice", and you still have a car worth $8k because of the high mileage. I have spared no expense in buying, maintaning, restoring or anything for this car. Selling as I need to reduce the collection and focus on other priorities.

VW could fight Uber Black with Porsche and Audi vehicles

Fri, Jun 3 2016

Last week, the Volkswagen group dumped $300 million into Gett, a taxi hailing-cum-ride sharing app that's big outside of the US. Now, the company has revealed that it's pondering a rival to Uber Black by offering private drivers access to its higher-end vehicles. Details are scarce since it's a single line reference in a very long press release, but VW says that it's looking at a "special chauffeur service" that features "premium brands, such as Audi and Porsche." What that looks like in reality is anyone's guess, although the idea of getting ferried around in an Audi RS 7 does have some appeal. The deal with Gett will concentrate on getting Volkswagen cars into the hands of Gett's drivers with the promise of juicy discounts. For instance, the firm will offer a special package that'll bundle car insurance and servicing with the purchase price, which can be paid by a would-be operator in installments. It's a similar deal to the one that Uber offers would-be drivers, letting them buy cars from manufacturers like Volkswagen, Ford and Toyota at a discount. Uber, however, also lets prospective cabbies rent their vehicle on a monthly basis, thanks to a deal with Enterprise. Both of which will likely become more muscular now that Uber has a further $3.5 billion in its back pocket. The troubling fact for the auto industry is that people will still need cars, but it's likely that they won't need as many as they do right now. On-demand services and self-driving vehicles are, after all, intended to shuttle around cities like an ersatz taxi-cum-metro system rather than sitting in parking lots. The concepts of ownership that we currently hold dear (and the profits that car companies get from them) are likely to fade away in the next, say, fifty years time. As such, conglomerates like VW will have to reinvent themselves as both manufacturer and transport company in one. But these changes are never easy, especially when the biggest car firms have tons of baggage that slows down their progress. Many are still devoting time and resources to producing thousands of new cars with combustion engines that will be on the roads for years to come. Looming in the shadow, however, is the emissions scandal, with the financial and reputational penalties likely to be felt for years to come. Younger, more nimble rivals without legacy businesses, like Tesla, are working on mass-producing electric cars for mass-market prices.

Porsche Cayman gets a new face

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

We've already seen photos of the facelifted Porsche Boxster out testing, but we're now seeing these same changes making their way onto the hardtop Cayman coupe. Cosmetically, the next round of Porsche's smallest sports cars isn't vastly different, with redesigned headlamps, LED running lights (like its big brother, the 911), and new taillamps that actually aren't visible on the prototype seen here.
The big news for the updated Boxster/Cayman range is the long-rumored four-cylinder engine. Recent reports suggest we could see four-pots with displacements of 1.6, 2.0, or 2.5 liters, and with output ratings as high as 360 horsepower. Of course, these new four-cylinder mills would be both turbocharged and direct-injected.
It's unclear whether or not the six-cylinder engine range will also be updated when this new Cayman comes to market. In any case, we expect to see it bow in the relatively near future. Stay tuned.

Porsche planning Cayman GT4 racer

Fri, 10 Oct 2014

To say that Porsche is big in racing is like saying that Warren Buffett dabbles in mergers and acquisitions. But while it fields the 919 Hybrid at Le Mans and in the FIA World Endurance Championship, the bulk of its racing activities are undertaken by private teams that buy customer racecars from the factory. Those in turn are largely based on the 911, but the latest intel from the motor racing world indicates that Zuffenhausen is planning a more accessible customer race car.
The new, more affordable competition car is to be based on the Cayman and built to GT4 specifications, slotting in below the 911-based GT3 Cup, GT3 R and RSR. Autosport reports that Porsche has already developed a prototype and will shortly commence testing. Details are scarce at the moment, but the Cayman GT4 would seem to compete against the likes of the Aston Martin Vantage N24, Nissan 370Z Nismo GT4 and Maserati GranTurismo MC. It will also likely help Porsche foster enthusiasm for a potential road version that's already been spotted undergoing testing. Previous GT4 racing conversions of the Cayman, like the one pictured above, were carried out by third-party racing constructors not recognized by the factory.
Porsche may not be the only one showing interest in the category, however. BMW is said to similarly be considering a GT4-spec version of its M235i Racing model to compete in the same class, taking the place of the defunct M3 GT4 as the Bavarian marque's entry-level customer racing car.
