Fast, great looks, turns heads, great value. Great support network out there via the PCA and several good parts housed dedicated to the 928.

Be sure to keep your eye on the speedometer you may be going a lot faster than you think. Best to be knowledgeable or have help when you buy your car have it inspected.

complexity, cost of "new" parts

These extraordinary cars are full of contradictions. They were painstakingly designed to be safe and reliable at high speeds, but age has made their complexity their Achille's heal. A new buyer MUST purchase a known quantity, because every owner is essentially taking hand-off of the maintenance baton. New owners are most successful, if they are DIYers. Cost of ownership becomes much less prohibitive for those types. Highest quality of materials helps these aging princes to keep their charm. New looking leather and rehabilitatable interiors are not uncommon.

Spare parts!

Where do I begin? Becoming a classic car, the 928 S4 is truly worthy of legend status. The dollar:horse power ratio is very good. True, parts can be expensive but look after the car and it won't let you down.

Great looks, exceptional performance, well made. A lot of fun to drive. Way ahead of its time when produced. Cult following so many parts are available from several sources although they are expensive.

Expensive to maintain. Although there are many specialty places to get parts, consider yourself lucky to get it back from any repair for less than $250, even minor items. The only problems that I have had is a leak in the a/c at a $38 switch, otherwise, so far, so good.

I bought this car from the web and have no regrets. Finally an honest used car dealer who guaranteed the car was as advertised. The car is 21 years old and is impecable. It was one owner, garaged an dealer maintained. The car runs and looks like new. Turns heads and I receive comments every time I drive it.

There is nothing else like a 928. The front mounted v8 sounds like nothing else out there.

Beautiful design, fabulous V8 engine, long distance panache, awesome handling, intoxicating exhaust sound.

A bit handful in traffic(heavy steering, stiff clutch, wide stance), tall 1st.gear kills off-the-line acceleration, high maintenance cost.

Absolutely the best car for the money. Can't believe the car is 26 years old and still looks up to date in design. Torquey, long legged V8 powerband makes it an absolute delight to drive, not having to downshift very often. Though not a drag racer, once you get to 100 km/h, speed increases fairly rapidly.Though 240hp is a bit paltry by today's standards, it can still outgun most "commuter" cars on the road overhere. Long distance driving is a great pleasure, as a GT ought to be, but it can still do some canyon carving with the best of them. Of all the cars I have ever owned, this one is by far the best. Its got it all; Looks, performance, comfort, reliability, and aura.

You shouldnt buy this car if you dont intend on spending $1000 on a tune-up. and even more if something major goes wrong like the trans. Very hard to find someone who will fix the car and not screw you over at the same time.

I am writing this review for my father who has owned a 928 for about 2 years, and WOW! Is you are concitering buying a Boxter,944,or older 911 smack yourself forthinking that and buy a 928 S4. THis is the best car for the money you can buy ( I think ). The 928 is a $80,000 car that decreaced in value because they cost alot to fix ( a new trans cost $5000 not including the instalation price that was another three grand ). Below is the 928 S4's kill list -Corvette z06's (the lisense plate reads Vettkler) -Japanese imports like candy -other Porsches -Mustang GT's -Bmw 850ie V-12 -Viper SRT/10 ( in Atlanta ) and many others

Very good

Very reliable, faithful, willing and clean burning V8 engine. Body construction is first class. Suspension and other components top quality. 4 seats, hatch design is a plus. A practical super car.

A lot of horsepower and heat in a tight package. Cars from hot climates need to have fluids changed - transmission, power steering. Heat from exhaust affects motor mounts, driveshaft bearings and steering racks. But this is after 10 or more years of use. Not a city car, the 928 is best run in the country or open and scenic highways.

After owning 87S4, 90S4 I was quite prepared to jump on the opportunity of the black on black GTS. For 928 ownership it's important to appreciate the performance, handling, and history of the car. You must be intelligient and informed regarding service and maintenance. There is a lot of equipment on the 928, and it takes time to keep on top of things. The car should be garaged and kept out of the sun, winter driving not suggested to keep brakes and running gear corrosion free. The 928 is a real work of road going art, but that is in the eyes of the beholder. With some upgrades, they are really a good experience. But we've seen many that have deteriorated to "project" status. Still they are worth the time if you can source good used parts. See our website at www.jageng.com for more!
