1988 Porsche 928 S4, Enthusiasts Car With Loads Of Extras on 2040-cars
Gainesville, Georgia, United States
1988 Porsche 928 S4. The opportunity you have been looking for has just arrived. A well kept Black S4 Automatic from a 928 Enthusiast with key features such as premium sound system/w/bass tube, custom rims, Momo steering wheel and red LED lite instrument cluster to name a few. AC blows cold, reasonably new Continental tires on the front end. Exhaust growls like a shark should and is in good shape. I purchased this shark from a Porsche enthusiast two years ago who makes me look tame in comparison who shed a tear as I was driving away as he was staring a family and his wife made him an offer he could not refuse. Prior to my taking delivery the car had new motor mounts installed as well as a steering rack with tie rods. If you know anything about these cars, a set of rods and racks will cost you 2 grand and most used sharks you buy will need the work shortly. Also the complete top end hoses were replaced prior to my purchase. The mass air flow meter was reconditioned. The car comes with a complete set of 4 original slotted wheels with tires, a spare front bumper and lower spoiler as well as a set of original factory manuals ( rare to find in this condition ) and two Porsche 928 car cover, one each for indoors and out. And there is more, A full set or rear plate tools and jack with spare, tire cover, 12 V original pump and two original keys. All lights function. I have several spare parts to go with the car such as window regulator and other nicknacks that you may find yourself needing. No doubt about 928s, they need TLC once in a while.
Open and honest issues, Paint is in good shape, the drivers seat has a repairable tear in the cushion and the electric drivers seat does not work ( I'm 6'4" and it is all the way back and not a problem for me ). The odometer quit working at 128,000 miles ( before I purchased the car ) the prior owner put on 7,000 miles before I got the car and I've added another 3,000. I had a mechanic look to repair the odometer after I got the shark but he advised not to as all other gauges work and he felt that there was no upside to fixing it even though it is repairable. The battery is new, lower seals tightened, the car is a strong runner and passed a compression check before I purchased it and every time I drive it it puts a smile on my face.
I hope that if you are seriously looking for a 928S4, even as a daily driver, you will consider this Shark.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS facing delay over GT3 fire problems?
Mon, 24 Mar 2014Porsche has never been afraid to introduce variants of its cars. However, its even higher spec, next-generation 911 GT3 RS may be delayed from its planned launch this summer while the engines in the standard GT3s (pictured above) are replaced.
A delay isn't certain, but executives want to make sure the high-strung mill is no longer a problem before they press forward with another model using it. Germany's Auto Motor und Sport asked Porsche CEO Matthias Müller about pushing back the launch, and he responded that it was too early to say. The company's current focus is making sure the engines get fixed and working on internal measures to prevent this kind of flaw in the future.
When fires claimed two 911 GT3s in Europe, Porsche initially stopped the model's sales and asked owners to stop driving them. It finally diagnosed the blazes as being caused by a loose screw on a connecting rod, which then resulted in crankcase damage and an oil leak. The company is replacing the engines on all 785 affected cars. A source told Autoblog that under 200 customers were actually affected, and the other cars were either at port or dealer lots. Hopefully, the recall doesn't postpone the road-going GT3 RS too far because we want to see what Porsche has up its sleeve.

Performance cars old and new are headed to auction at Las Vegas Grand Prix
Fri, Nov 10 2023Auction house RM Sotheby's is hosting a sale ahead of the 2023 Las Vegas Formula One Grand Prix, and most of the lots that will cross the block were designed with performance in mind. Whether you want a supercar or a Formula One car, there's a chance you'll find it in Sin City. One of the highlights from the sale in terms of rarity and price is the Mercedes-AMG Petronas W04 that Lewis Hamilton drove in the 2013 F1 season. Assigned chassis number F1W04-04, it's the team's last car powered by a naturally-aspirated V8 engine, and you're on the wrong track if you're thinking of the 4.0-liter unit that powers AMG's road cars. The engine in question is a 2.4-liter unit that develops 750 horsepower and is capable of revving to a screaming 18,000 rpm. The KERS system injects 80 additional horses into the driveline. Hamilton drove F1W04-04 in 14 of the 2013 season's 19 races, and he won that year's Hungarian Grand Prix in the car. RM Sotheby's notes that F1W04-04 is "the sole example to be sold outside of the Mercedes-Benz organization," which explains why it expects the car will sell for anywhere between $10 million and $15 million excluding the buyer's fee and a 2.5% import duty that applies to American residents. That's a lot of money, but modern Formula One cars rarely come up for sale. Several other cars are expected to sell above the $1 million mark, including a 1999 Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR ($8 million to $9 million), a 1988 Porsche 959 Komfort ($1,650,000 to $1,850,000), and a 1996 Bugatti EB110 Super Sport ($2,500,000 to $3,250,000). The 1990 Ferrari F40 GT (one of 21 units built) could bring up to $4 million. You can take home a rare, high-end classic even if you cap your budget at $1 million. How about a 1984 Lamborghini Countach 5000 S that was delivered new to Ralph Lauren and that has been in the hands of its second owner since 1986? RM expects the coupe will sell for up to $900,000. The auction house is also giving enthusiasts two distinctly different ways to spend a six-digit sum on a 30-something-year-old Mercedes-Benz. There's a 1990 190E 2.5-16 Evolution with about 3,400 original miles that could fetch up to $700,000. That's a lot to pay for a W201, but this isn't a run-of-the-mill Baby Benz: It's one of 502 examples built for homologation purposes. Alternatively, the 1989 560SEC AMG 6.0 Wide-Body could sell for up to $900,000. It's one of the most emblematic cars designed by AMG before it joined Mercedes-Benz.
