Making its public debut in 1977 at the Geneva Auto Show, the Porsche 928 was released for sale later that year as a 1978 model. The 928 is a wonderful execution of German engineering and quality, exemplified in the example on offer. It is a powerful, grand touring coupe that was intended to replace the 911 but was ultimately sold alongside it. It provided comfort and luxury, designed to deliver high-speed performance and daily usability. Powered by a 4.5L V8 engine producing 229 horsepower, the 928 offers a nearly perfect 50/50 weight distribution due to its innovative transaxle layout, ensuring exceptional balance and handling. Its distinctive aesthetic appearance was unlike anything produced by Porsche and understood by many to be ahead of its time. Considered one of the most sophisticated GT cars of the period, the right 928 examples have become very desirable among enthusiasts and collectors alike.

The special 1980 Porsche 928 on offer was optioned with “paint to sample” Anthrazit Gray Metallic, along with a very rare 5-speed manual gearbox, while a majority of 928 cars were sold with a 3-speed automatic transmission. Under prior ownership, the car received a thorough mechanical refurbishment, including a rebuilt alternator, new fuel pump, front and rear brake pads, battery, hood struts, brake fluid, fuel lines, and tires. Under current ownership, over $10k in service has recently been performed by a Porsche specialist, including: complete shifter component rebuild, replacement of brake light switches and fuel injector seals, oil pan replacement, cleaning, reinstallation with new gasket, engine mounts replaced and entire top and bottom-end resealed, power steering system bled/flushed and components deep cleaned, A/C system refurbished, replacement of timing belt and water pump, new spark plugs and wires, intake system overhaul with new gaskets, boots, seals, mounts, and vacuum lines. No stone has been left unturned to ensure many miles of driving pleasure.

The sale of this 1980 Porsche 928 is accompanied by two sets of keys, a spare tire, tool kit, air pump, owner’s manual, jack, and a comprehensive history file. It has been fully sorted to a high degree by a Porsche specialist, without any regard to cost, and is absolutely turnkey. We are pleased to offer this extremely well preserved, very special, 928 for sale to new ownership where we trust it will be used and enjoyed as intended.
