THE PORSCHE 928

Unveiled at the Geneva Salon in 1977 and voted Car of the Year for 1978, the front-engined 928's stylish hatchback body used aluminum for the doors, bonnet, and front wings, while ingenious impact-resistant 'bumpers' made of color-matched plastic were incorporated in the nose and tail. The V8 engine – Porsche's first - displaced 4.5 liters and produced 234bhp. A five-speed transaxle gearbox or three-speed automatic were the transmission options. In 1982 the 928 'S' with 4.6-liter engine arrived and then in 1986 the model was further revised and restyled, becoming the 928 'S4'. Its engine producing 320bhp courtesy of 32-valves and enlargement to 4,957cc, the 'S4' enjoyed a welcome top speed boost to over 160mph.

THE MOTORCAR OFFERED

Completed at the Zuffenhausen Porsche factory in January of 1987, this exceptionally well-kept 928 stems from the desirable S4 model series, featuring four valves per cylinder and many other sports and performance derived upgrades. This Porsche was finished in the wonderful Veneziablau Metallic blue with a matching blue leather interior and fitted with a desirable 5-speed manual transmission. This North American example was sold new in March of 1987 from Porsche of Fairfield, CT. It is believed to have remained in the Northeast for several years, before migrating to California in the mid-2000s. Today, this excellent 928 S4 is in superb original condition with just 65,354 miles recorded on the odometer. This 928 retains most of its original exterior paint, interior, glass and various factory applied decals and emblems. The car is offered with its original keys, Blaupunkt radio, tool kit, service and maintenance manuals.
