Its engine bay is very tide and the cargo area appears in good order.Externally, the S wore new front and rearspoilersand sported wider wheels andtiresthan the original 928, but the main change for the 928S was under the hood, where a revised 4.7 L engine was used. Backing this upgraded engine is a five-speed manual transmission. Other model year changes include: North American introduction of "S" model. Standard 928 (4.5 L) model dropped New style hydraulic motor mounts Engine shocks deleted at same time Optional four-speed automatic transmission for North America Car body and torque tube changed to accommodate longer gearboxInside, the tan Berber cloth/leather interior is in overall good condition. The seats and matching carpet are all in good order, as is the black headliner. The instrument panel is in fair shape, with at least two cracks visible upon inspection. The original four-spoke steering wheel is present and is in good shape. The inner door panels show some wear, likely due to the aftermarket speaker installation. The mirror glass, center console and shift lever all look good. Please note, this cars air-conditioner, sunroof and stereo are all inoperable.ThePorsche 928was aluxuriousgrand tourer(S-segment) from 1978 to 1995. Originally intended to replace the company's well-known and famed911, the 928 combined the power, poise and handling of asports carwith the refinement, comfort and equipment of aluxurioussedan to create what some Porsche executives thought would be a vehicle with wider appeal than the compact, quirky and sometimes difficult911.Since its inception in 1949,Porschehas manufactured only sevenfront-enginedmodels, four of which werecoupes, including the 928. The car has the distinction of being the company's onlycoupepowered by a front-mounted V-8 engine and the company's first production V-8 powered model. This design marked a major change in direction for Porsche, whose cars had until then used only rear- or mid-mountedair-cooled flat engines with four or six cylinders.Porsche used atransaxlein the 928 to help achieve 50/50 front/rear weight distribution, aiding the car's balance. Although it weighed more than the sometimes difficult-to-handle 911, its more neutral weight balance and higher power output gave it similar performance on the track. The 928 was regarded as the more relaxing car to drive at the time. It came with either a five-speeddogleg manual transmission or aMercedes-Benz-derived automatic transmission, originally with three speeds, with a four-speed from 1983 in North America and 1984 in other markets. More than 80 percent had the automatic transmission. Exact percentage of manual gearbox cars for entire production run is not known but it is believed to be between 15 and 20 percent.The body, styled by Wolfgang Mbius under guidance of Anatole Lapine, was mainly galvanizedsteel but the doors, front fenders and hood werealuminumin order to make the car more lightweight. It had a substantial luggagearea accessed via a largehatchback. The newpolyurethaneelasticbumperswere integrated into the nose and tail and covered in body-coloredplastic; an unusual feature for the time that aided the car visually and reduced itsdrag.The 928 qualified as a2+2, having two small seats in the rear. Both rear seats could be folded down to enlarge the luggage area, and both the front and rear seats had sun visors for occupants. The rear seats are small (due to the prominent transmission hump) and have very little legroom; they are only suitable for adults on very short trips or children. The 928 was the first vehicle in which the instrument cluster moved along with the adjustablesteering wheelin order to maintain maximum instrument visibility.The 928 included several other innovations such as the "Weissach Axle", a simple rear-wheel steering system that provides passive rear-wheel steering to increase stability while braking during a turn and an unsleeved, silicon alloy engine block made of aluminum, which reduced weight and provided a highly durable cylinder bore.Porsche's design and development efforts paid off during the 1978European Car of the Year,where the 928 won ahead of theBMW 7 Series, and the European Ford Granada. The 928 is the onlysports carso far to have won this competition, where the usual winners are mainstreamhatchbacksandsedans/saloonsfrom majorEuropeanmanufacturers. This is regarded as proof of how advanced the 928 was, compared to its contemporaries.Competition to this Porsche in 1983 included Audis Quattro, BMWs 633CSi, Chevrolets Corvette, Jaguars XJ-S, Lotus Esprit S3, Mercedes-Benzs 380SEC, Nissans 300ZX and Toyotas Supra.Documentation includes original owners manual, original stamped maintenance book, original warranty info, decade of California registrations and $30,600 in maintenance records for the past 17 years.This car is currently located at our facility in St. Louis,
