Vehicle Description
This 1987 Porsche 928 S4 is a classic exotic built for grand
touring comfort. And with the desirable updated fuel-injected V8,
overdrive transmission, and loaded interior, it's the ideal car to
take on your weekend adventures.
The 928 represents a terrific era in sports cars. It's the kind of
unique design that made the hand-crafting a Porsche even more
expensive to produce. So not only did the 928 have a grand touring
size, but they were also a range-topping price when new. That's why
they have always made owners look like millionaires. But for those
who paid closer attention to the 928, they know 1987 represents a
significant dividing line. It was the debut of the S4 evolution,
bringing the car together. The front and rear lighting/bumper
packages were made sleeker, and the rear wing was revised to give
this a touch of the 911 Turbo's whale tail. But Porsche didn't mess
with the iconic elements, like the flush-mounted retracted
headlights, unique door shape, sport alloys, and the overall sleek
silhouette. It's an attractive look with the bold red style, and
everything continues to fit together with proper German-level
precision. But we also like that this 928 doesn't try to get too
fancy because, as you dig into the details, you'll also be reminded
that real drivers prefer the S4.
The black interior looks quite nice against the bright red
exterior. While it's unknown if the odometer represents the total
actual mileage, the condition of the carpeting, dash, headline, and
supple leather upholstery all suggest less use and proper care. The
front seats are terrific high-back units that hug the body, and the
rear are even individual buckets. While there isn't precisely
adult-level comfort, they fold for added luggage space for more
than weekend bags. As a true grand touring Porsche, this also comes
with power windows, power front seats, cruise control, a sunroof, a
Blaupunkt stereo, and cold-blowing air conditioning. You'll love
sitting behind the four-spoke sports steering wheel on a tilt
column and watching the full gauge pack dance as you dig into the
deep tones of the motor.
The debut of the S4 meant the debut of a new 5.0-liter
fuel-injected motor that produced ten percent more power than the
previous year. The overhead cam V8 provides the best of both worlds
as it has muscle car-like low-end torque yet screams to redline
like an exotic when you prod the accelerator. The exhaust note is
truly a symphony for the ears you control with your right foot. The
transaxle setup makes for a wonderfully balanced feeling on the
road, and that's exactly where this car belongs. It has so many
great driving features, including a fully independent sports
suspension, performance-mined four-speed automatic transmission
with overdrive, power steering, and four-wheel disc brakes.
The sale comes complete with the owner's manual and a receipt for
over $7k in recent maintenance. When you're ready to have a 928 as
your fun driver's classic, this is the good year, style, and price
to do it correctly. Call now!
