Given its unparalleled viewing visibility, the Porsche 928 is touted as the finest Porsche ever. The most enjoyable driving moment is when the driver and car become one; the car gives the driver precise information as to road quality, and the driver, by steering, braking, and accelerating, responds. The car, then, reacts.            



This car is a 1983 Porsche 928. The owner of this car loved and maintained it for over 15 years and is only parting with it to travel the world. 



With its original rebuilt 285ci that does not leak nor have any over-heating  problems. This is truly a solid turn-key driver. Its automatic transmission shifts tight  and smoothly. We put in place new front control arm bushing, brakes, shocks, and fresh fluids.



The brakes feel great and are adjusted properly. Its body is very solid and straight with its original color platinum metallic retained. There are minor paint imperfections and a slight ding on passenger front fender near the headlight (can be seen in pictures and videos).  



Interior has rip in driver seat, side cousin, and rear arm rest is ripped as well. Dash is cracked a little and is covered with an aftermarket dash pad but does fit and looks good. Rear quart sail panels are in need of recovering.



The A/C is functioning but not getting too cold (I will look into fixing it at my facility).



Everything else is intact and in fair condition. Glass is all good, and doors close smoothly and hinges are good. Lights, blinkers, heater, and radio are all working fine. Engine work was done professionally  and it shows in the way this car starts and runs. Over all, this is a mechanically sound daily driver. 



The owner has put thousand of dollars in up keep over his years of ownership and has receipts for all motor works. 



His next step is to improve and dress up the interior. 

 

I have taken lots of additional photos and videos of starting, undercarriage, and driving.
