And here is an exclusive interview with the private owner sharing his collection of rare automobilia in his private Porsche Museum: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6MyqEkGyhI

 

 

Back in the early 1970s, the Porsche management team decided it was time to build an ?berPorsche, one that would allow long distance traveling at speeds beyond 150mph, safely, without inducing driver fatigue. The car would have to be able to meet any and all government regulations that might be conceived in the foreseeable future. Its code name: 928. Its MSRP when introduced in Geneva back in 1977: $26,500 in base trim, roughly the same price as several contemporary Kia’s.

 

 

Always evolving throughout its 17-year production, the 928 began with a 4.5-liter V8 engine delivering 230hp. By 1991, the "S4" reached the pinnacle of the series with a 5.0-liter engine that produces an astounding 316 hp. Along with countless performance, suspension, safety and styling updates, the S4 has a cleaner, sleeker look that is much closer to being a 21st century car than the previous models. The factory proudly called the S4 "the fastest street legal production car sold in the US," a comfortable road rocket, capable of seating 4 while giving contemporary Ferraris, Maseratis, and Lamborghinis a run for their money.

 

 

More refined, comfortable, and luxurious than any prior Porsche, the 928 shares one very important trait with the legendary 911: timeless looks. Even 37 years after its introduction, the Tony Lapine-penned 928 design has lost nothing of its breathtaking appeal; like a spaceship from another planet, it is a superb example of the prevailing design virtues of the Seventies.

 

 

Viewed from the rear, the 928 still looks futuristic, almost 38 years after its debut. If you're in lust with its shape and desire to drive the Teutonic supercar today, be forewarned though: the 928 is a very complex automobile, and only the best-maintained low-mileage example should be pursued, or the dream of 928 ownership could easily turn into a nightmare.
Here's such a superb specimen for your consideration!

 

 

On May 2, 1991, VIN *WP0AA2923MS810394*, left the factory gates in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen, West Germany.

 

 

The original window sticker (price $80,634) and stamped Warrantee Voucher confirm the car sold new on March 19, 1992 at Dave Strong’s Porsche in Salt Lake City, Utah.

 

 

Making its journey west, the car was loved and cherished by a premium wine maker in Napa.

 

 

The current owner is a mature, prominent businessman who keeps the car covered and sheltered in his “man cave” among his private collection of museum quality Porsches in Monterey, CA.

 

 

The Porsche comes with all its original books and manuals, as well as all keys, including the valet keys.  Ideally, a keeper 928's Owner’s Books has to look like this!

 

 

Needless to say, the car's maintenance and mileage history is fully documented. Lots of dealer service stamps entered in the maintenance book and a stack of service records vouch for an immaculate past. Studying the records confirms that the car was pampered bordering on obsession, with absolutely no regard to cost.

 


The above maintenance includes a transmission service (yes, those 928 transaxles are the car's Achilles Heel!) the imperative water pump and timing belt replacement and the equally important
brakes, tune-up, fluids flushed and 4-wheel alignment. The transmission service, timing belt replacement/water pump and system check were extensively documented and photographed in an 18-page journal. This along all other documented maintenance records can be emailed in PDF or faxed to you upon request.

 

 

There are absolutely no "deferred maintenance" worries. Hence, a unique opportunity arises to obtain a coveted 928 S4, one that has always enjoyed a most beneficial climate and is pampered beyond belief by a mature owner with big pockets and the willingness to pay up for the best service and upgrades money can buy.

 

 

Let's check out this dream find now, inside and out!

 

 

The exterior, sporting its original black finish looks simply stunning.

 

 

All trim and glass remains in near-perfect condition as well.

 

 

This S4 has never suffered any damage. There are no door dings, only a few minor blems and rock chips to report.

 

 

Hood, hatch and door gaps are in perfect alignment; confirming the 928’s pampered existence for the past 23 years.

 

 

Equipped with lightweight aluminum doors and hoods, this Porsche's body is perfectly rust and accident free.

 

 

Note the factory-installed electric sunroof; code 650, one of the most desirable amenities available.

 

 

Equipped with a wind deflector, it works flawlessly.

 

 

Retractable headlights flip-up and down in perfect unison.

 

 

The front bumper and spoiler have a few scratches and rock chips

 

 

This 928 S4 still wears its original factory-installed chromed alloy wheels (some very minor pitting, see detailed photos).

 

 

There is a set of near-new YOKOHAMA ES100 ultra- high-performance radials of the size 225/50ZR16.

 

While we’re down on one knee, let’s have a look underneath.

 

 

More important than shiny paint is a healthy undercarriage.

 

 

This original chassis presents itself free of any kind of damage or corrosion.

 

 

No flaking, no undercoating, just the all-original finishes.

 

 

Details, details. Notice that the Porsche 928 features a transaxle design to achieve perfect weight balance, the engine being up front and the transmission mounted to the rear axle housing.

 

 

Most importantly, with the exception of a few scrapes and scratches below, there is absolutely NO evidence of corrosion, collision damage or any other mishap that would cause the enthusiast sleepless nights.

 

 

Let's look inside now!

 

 

Leather, leather everywhere.

 

 

Even dash surface and headliner are crafted from the finest aromatic hides. Highly unusual, the dash top is perfectly free of the usual leather shrinkage or warping.

 

 

This 928 S4 comes equipped with all the features you would expect of a true luxury automobile.

 

 

Among them, a height-adjustable instrument pod and steering wheel, ensuring good visibility for drivers of all sizes, and an automatic climate control system that also cools the glove compartment.

 

 

All digital and analog gauges and switches work perfectly and the 37,161 miles shown on the digital odometer are original!

 

 

Combining Porsche performance with Mercedes comfort, the seats are extremely comfortable and feature about every power adjustment a pilot could dream of.

 

 

Properly nourished, the seats' light gray hides are still soft and supple; there are no rips or tears, no wear marks of any kind.

 

 

The 928 S4 being a true GT car, the rear compartment is actually spacious enough for adult use. Interestingly, rear passengers even have their own sun visors!

 

 

Ever tried to stow all your vacation luggage, perhaps including a couple of golf bags, inside a Ferrari, Lamborghini, or even Porsche 911?

 

 

The 928's luggage compartment is cavernous, and its capacity can be increased even more by folding the rear seatbacks forward.

 

 

From the soft cotton car cover and cargo net to the unused spare tire and jack below: almost every factory goodie is still present, large or small. It's the proverbial fussy collector's dream!

 

 

How about a quick peek under the hood?

 

 

Residing in a toothbrush-clean engine bay is this amazing engineering masterpiece, entirely hewn from Reynolds 390 silicon-and-aluminum alloy.

 

 

Similar to the 911 engine, a BOSCH Jetronic injection takes care of fuel distribution.

 

 

The bullet-proof power plant is mated to Borg Warner’s finest 4-speed automatic transmission, nestled inside a lightweight Porsche case, which itself is mated to the famous Weissach rear transaxle for a near-perfect 51/49% weight distribution.

 

 

With an extensive, documented service history and a major service/system check recently completed, you can safely surmise that this particular engine is healthy as an ox in its prime. Clean as a whistle, there are no leaks, no untoward noises, no bad behaviors. It's a fitting description to call it like new.

 

Drivability:

 

 

From the addictive, burbling sound of the V8 to the feeling of full control at any time, driving the 928 S4 is a visceral pleasure. The car virtually clings to the road during fast cornering; the big, servo-assisted disc brakes can deliver almost 1g of deceleration force.

 

 

It's so much fun to drive a sports car equipped with a big V8 engine and automatic transmission. There are no rattles or shimmies, acceleration is impressive, and everywhere you arrive, interested passersby stop to admire this rare Porsche, marveling at the fact that a 23 year-old car can be this pristine in every way.

 

 

A true supercar, it could run with the best of Ferrari and Lamborghini in its day, entirely unfussy and without the anxiety its Italian counterparts instill in most pilots. This immaculately cared-for, low mileage, rust free, fully documented example is in museum condition and would be impossible to duplicate.

 

 

Manufactured for almost seventeen years, Porsche's superb 928 long ago was elevated to the status of a truly iconic milestone car. Here's a unique opportunity to obtain one of the very best-preserved examples you'll ever encounter.

Updated J.D. Power APEAL study shines on VW Group, Chevy

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

J.D. Power has just revealed the results of its 2013 APEAL Study, which looks at which brands have the most appealing cars based on sales figures, dealer inventory, brand loyalty, transaction and trade-in prices. The study was revamped for 2013, and places a larger focus on the new tech and infotainment options available to customers. All told, study participants gauged their vehicles on 77 different attributes, delivering a score out of a 1,000 points.
The Volkswagen Group had the greatest success of any corporation, topping the APEAL rankings with the Audi Allroad, Porsche Boxster, Porsche Cayenne, VW GTI and Passat. Chevrolet had the highest number of awards for a single brand, though, with the Avalanche, Sonic and Volt all taking home a prize.
The best brand overall was Porsche, which scored 884 out of a possible 1,000 points. The top Japanese brand was Lexus with a score of 847, while the top American brand was Cadillac, at 841. The best mainstream brand was Ram, which received a very respectable 817. The industry average for this year's study was 795, with 16 brands, all of which were mainstream, falling below the average.

eBay Find of the Day: 1981 Porsche 928 convertible by Carelli

Wed, 30 Apr 2014

The Porsche 928 was perhaps the consummate European GT of its day. With a powerful front-mounted V8 engine that grew in displacement as the model years went on, it was capable of eating up the miles at triple-digit speeds in great comfort for occupants. It was also an unusual beauty, with its sharp front and curved rear featuring innovative integrated bumpers.
Currently for auction on eBay Motors is one of the rarest 928s you're likely to find, in a handsome combination of Guards Red paint and tan leather interior, though we wouldn't mind a less-showy finish to the factory wheels. According to the seller, this car is one of eight 928 convertibles by Carelli Design, a firm that's still in business.
The auction claims that these cars were made in 1981 as a feasibility study between Carelli and Porsche for a possible production 928 convertible. The seller says he worked at the dealership where the car is said to have been originally sold $103,000. To remove the roof and hide the convertible top, there were significant changes made to the body and interior, including redesigned doors and a completely new trunk. As you can see in the gallery, when down, the top is completely hidden in a very factory-like fashion. When up, it looks slightly awkward, though (and we'd really like to see a rear three-quarter view to check out the blind spots).

First-ever Porsche headed home to company museum

Wed, 29 Jan 2014

About 30 years before Ferdinand Porsche designed the Volkswagen Beetle, he created the Egger-Lohner electric vehicle, C.2 Phaeton model - or simply, the P1 - you see above. This was the first vehicle created by Porsche, and the car gets its nickname from the fact that he had stamped "P1" on many of the parts marking it as the first Porsche... sorry, 356 No. 1.
Now while you'd think that such an important piece of Porsche heritage has been in a museum or even the automaker's not-so-secret lair, it has actually been sitting at a warehouse for the last 112 years. Thankfully, that's all about to change as Porsche has recovered P1, and the car will soon be on "permanent display" at the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart.
The P1 has a 3 horsepower motor capable of delivering a top speed of 21 miles per hour and a driving range of 49 miles, and, like many vehicles in Porsche's history, the motor is positioned at the rear of the vehicle. According to the press release posted below, the P1 finished first in a 24-mile electric vehicle race in Berlin in 1899, but it has been sitting since 1902.
