1983 Porsche 928S For Sale

The Appeal

Boasting courageous new styling and, most uncharacteristically for Porsche, a 4.7-litre V8 engine up front, the 928 signalled a new direction for the Stuttgart-based manufacturer. Destined to be the flagship model in the Porsche range, the 928 attempted to combine sports car handling with the luxury and refinement of the grand tourer.

This 1983 928S was supplied new to Canada and has recently been imported to the Netherlands. It presents well inside and out although is not currently in a running state. A few areas will of course need tidying up, but we think it will make a great recommissioning project for its next owner.

The Interior

Well presented and very clean

Looks to be original and largely untouched

The perforated leather seats display some wear and are coming away at a few of the seams

With a few repairs and some reconditioning, we reckon the upholstery will clean up well

Some cracking to the top of the dashboard

All the dashboard appears in good order

Blaupunkt Tucson stereo fitted

The black carpeting presents well with some slight wear

Only light signs of use to the controls

The headlining looks in really good shape

The Exterior

Black paintwork in reasonable overall condition

The paint finish has failed on the nearside rear wing but is otherwise fairly presentable

There is some lacquer peel, fading and other small imperfections apparent in places

We’re informed that the bodywork is really sound, with no structural corrosion

Looking down the sides, the car appears quite straight with good panel fit and door shuts

The pop-up headlamps are a great feature that really make the 928 stand out

The alloy wheels look to be in great condition

From what we could see, the light lenses, glass and trims are in good order

The Mechanics

‘S’ specification with a 4.7-litre water-cooled V8 engine

Looks really smart and very clean under the bonnet

We’re informed that the car is not currently in running condition

Automatic gearbox

Nothing appears to have been disassembled, making this a great starting point for a project

Summary

With ‘80s classics really coming of age, this 928 would make a fabulous project and will be a great GT once back on the road.
