Porsche 928 S4 – The Perfect Porsche Change is never easy. When car manufacturers discover a winning formula, how can they make it even better? And let’s be honest: German carmakers are masters at improving what’s already good, rather than taking drastic new steps. The Porsche 928 remains a fascinating chapter in Porsche’s history — a brilliant model born out of necessity. Low Mileage and Exceptionally Well-Preserved Our example is truly a gem among Porsches — a white pearl with fewer than 77,000 kilometers. What a fresh-looking car! Just take a look at the indicator lenses — crystal clear. Moreover, this example still retains 90% of its original paint. Aside from some minor wear on the bumpers, the paintwork is in fantastic condition. The body is tight and clean, with excellent panel gaps that meet Porsche standards. The doors close with the satisfying solidity of a vault door, and the wheels are in stunning condition — just the way we like to see them. This Porsche comes with its original books, including the service booklet. It shows that this 928 was serviced by Porsche dealers and specialists. The maintenance records, dating back at least 15 years, clearly demonstrate that no expense was spared in keeping this car in top shape. Beautiful Interior in Fantastic Condition The interior surrounds you with luxury. The beige upholstery and carpets create a warm and inviting ambiance, making it a joy to sit behind the wheel. The low seating position adds to the immersive driving experience. The dashboard, featuring an iconic instrument cluster with bright orange dials, looks pristine. The plush carpets, correct floor mats, and the classic airbag steering wheel are all in excellent condition, further reflecting the car’s low mileage. You know that unmistakable feeling when you step inside a car that has seen minimal use? Just take a look at this interior — it says it all. Impressive Driving Experience The eight-cylinder engine runs beautifully smooth, quietly performing its duties in the background. Once on the road, the automatic transmission shifts seamlessly, and the steering feels responsive and precise, without being overly assisted. Thanks to its transaxle construction, the car’s handling is exceptional. With this example having received the required maintenance, the road handling leaves absolutely nothing to be desired. It’s immediately clear that this Porsche has lived a low-mileage life. The Story of the Porsche 928 In the 1970s, Porsche executives closely monitored their sales figures, and one thing was clear: the iconic Porsche 911 was experiencing a decline in sales. At the time, the air-cooled concept was seen as outdated. Porsche sought to better cater to the American market, which led to a bold shift in their lineup. Market research revealed that Americans had a growing demand for comfortable and luxurious cars. This led to the birth of the Porsche 928. Featuring pop-up headlights — those iconic “frog eyes” that seemed futuristic in the 1970s — the car boasted a water-cooled V8 up front and a rear-mounted transmission for ideal weight distribution. This engineering brilliance mirrored the legendary Lancia Aurelia from the 1950s, which also used a rear-mounted gearbox for superb balance. However, there was one major issue. Despite the Porsche 928’s impressive engineering, it failed to gain the traction it deserved. Why? Because Porsche buyers are selective. They gravitated toward emotion, and the air-cooled engine in the rear was seen as a raw, pure, and unfiltered experience. The 911’s unique handling dynamics continued to appeal to enthusiasts, while Porsche underestimated the emotional attachment buyers had to the 911. Moreover, the 928 was more expensive than the 911 and positioned more as a luxurious GT than a pure sports car. As Porsche improved the 911, the model remained successful — and loyal Porsche fans kept choosing the 911. Fortunately, the Porsche 928 is now recognized for its outstanding characteristics, and its futuristic, innovative features are finally receiving the appreciation they deserve.
