1989 Porsche 928 S4 Coupe 2-door 5.0l Auto Enthusiast Owned High Quality Machine on 2040-cars
Fort Worth, Texas, United States
I have been a 928 enthusiast since 1978 and this 1989 928 S4 was my car from 2004 to 2009. I own a Porsche repair shop for the last 30 yrs. I purchased this car in 2004 with a dropped camshaft timing belt. I fell in love with the look and condition of the car and decided to repair it to the max and keep it as my personal car. Making that decision, I spared no expense, removing the cylinder heads to inspect pistons and cylinders for any damage and they were found to be perfect and so the mechanical restoration began.
1. Cylinder heads received complete valve job, valve guides/seals, resurfacing, light porting of exhaust ports and polished combustion chambers. All gaskets and seals replaced with the latest greatest version. 2.In the process all electrical sensors were replaced with new OE Porsche pieces. All new fuel injectors OE, fuel pressure dampeners and regulator, fuel lines and vacuum lines, etc. 3.Intake manifold and cam covers disassembled, stripped and powder coated. 4. Replacement of both camshaft chains and tensioners, cam belt, all cam belt sprockets, rollers and water pump. 5.Replacement of distributor caps, rotors, sparkplugs, both ignition modules, and high performance spark plug wires. 6.All new hoses, belts, radiator, NEW Porsche AC compressor, expansion valve and hoses to compressor (retained R12 freon) 7.Amsoil synthetic oil, lube, ATF used throughout car, silver ceramic coated MSDS headers with X-pipe and high flow cats. 8.Both parking/fog light assemblies replaced with new assemblies which are now no longer available! 9.Front wheel bearings/seals replaced and Amsoil synthetic lube used. 10.All plastic inner fenders replaced with NEW ones on both front wheels. 11.Both under engine shields replaced with NEW OE Porsche ones, the metal shield is now no longer available. 12.Total CV rear axle rebuild with new CV joints, boots, flanges. The axles themselves I had black powder coated. 13 Fuel pumps replaced with new factory Porsche OE, new fuel lines, filter and the metal shield under the fuel pump/filter assembly I had black powder coated. 14.Mirrors and clock upgraded to GTS mirrors and clock(these were new pieces not used) Pricey Improvements that make big visual impact!! 15.New roof radio antenna 16.Transmission and torgue converter drained and filled with Amsoil synthetic ATF, new seal and filter, transmission pan black powder coated. 17.Rebuilt steering rack installed In the process of all these repairs, care was given to clean up and improve the area being worked on to make it look new as well. I have probably left out a lot of other things, parts and pieces that were done, but you get the idea of what has gone into this car and how its been cared for. Included in the pics is my folder of near $15,000. in just parts that went into this car. If I had kept track of my labor it surely would have approached that same cost figure. Presently, Im selling this car for my customer who purchased it from me in 2009. He is an executive for BNSF Railroad and has lightly used the car over the past few years. As mentioned above, the AC has lost freon and not cooling and he does not wish to repair at this time. With all that was replaced on the AC system I suspect a leaking line/connection. Make your offers knowing this problem exists and that some normal maintenance should be done. Sean Ratts, the 928 Doctor, has looked at this car and can verify condition etc. I am a member of the 928 Owners Club and PCA.Please contact me for any additional info that you would like to know. THIS CAR IS SOLD IN "AS IS" CONDITION AND THE BUYER ACCEPTS THIS CAR IN "AS IS" CONDITION, NO WARRANTY. I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS LISTING AT ANYTIME SHOULD THIS VEHICLE NO LONGER BE AVAILABLE FOR SALE. A $500.00 PAY PAL DEPOSIT IS DUE IMMEDIATELY UPON WINNING THIS VEHICLE AND IS NON REFUNDABLE. THE BALANCE MUST BE PAID IN CASH OR CHECK WITHIN SEVEN DAYS OF WINNING UNLESS OTHER ARRANGEMENTS ARE MADE WITH SELLER. IF THE BALANCE IS PAID BY CHECK, THE CHECK MUST CLEAR TO MY BANK BEFORE THE VEHICLE WILL BE RELEASED TO THE BUYER. THANK YOU Please do not make ridiculous offers as they will be laughed at and discarded |

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.
2016 Porsche Boxster Spyder marks the return of something great [w/video]
Wed, Apr 1 2015Welcome back, Porsche Boxster Spyder. We absolutely adored the previous version – a roadster focused solely on driver enjoyment and simplistic perfection. Heck, we didn't even care that it had cloth loops for door handles. And this new model looks to (somehow) offer even more to love. Let's start with that engine: the 3.8-liter flat-six tuned to produce 375 horsepower and mated exclusively to a manual transmission, which powers the Spyder to 60 miles per hour in 4.3 seconds, on its way to a top speed of 180 mph. But power isn't the only thing that makes the Spyder package so great. It uses brakes from the 911 Carrera S, is the lightest Boxster in the range, sits 20 millimeters lower to the ground than the standard car, and still features the manually operated cloth roof from the previous car. And it looks fantastic. Fan-freaking-tastic. Inside, there's a whole lot of nothing, and that's just fine with us. Want a radio? That'll be extra. Air conditioning? Open your wallet for that, too. Seems odd in a car that'll start at $82,100 when it goes on sale later this year. But once again, this Boxster Spyder is a tactile sports car whose only mission is to offer outstanding driving dynamics – comfort options are optional, but not necessary. We can't wait to get our hands on this one. New York International Auto Show 2015: World Premiere of the Boxster Spyder New top model in Boxster family Atlanta. Porsche is highlighting the 2015 convertible season by celebrating the world premiere of the new Boxster Spyder. This pure sports car will make its debut at the New York International Auto Show. The new top model of the Boxster range retains the unique and unmistakable character of the previous Spyder, which has already attained cult status. For example, the classic roadster top is still opened and closed by hand, and the Boxster Spyder is only available with a manual transmission, benefiting both weight savings and driver enjoyment. Staying true to roadster DNA, the Boxster Spyder offers a traditional sports-car driving experience combined with truly exceptional performance. This includes a firm sport suspension with a 20-mm lower ride height, brakes taken from the 911 Carrera S, more direct steering, and a 3.8-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine with an output of 375 hp, culminating in a genuine sports car experience with outstanding driving dynamics. It is the lightest model of the current Boxster line, and the most powerful Boxster to date.
