I know this story. A pity as even if I cannot compete with the 911, it is, on the other side, a totally different car. For a different use, and maybe for different clients.
1993 Porsche 928 GTS.
A big 8 Cylinder 5400 ( big for an European ) , powerful, full of torque, in this fast and comfortable GT car. All an era. Credit: Classic Car. Very austere but complete dashboard. Best, Nicolas ...
928 has double wishbone, even today, almost all Porsche 2-door cars do not have double wishbones; except for 959, Carrera GT, 918, and only the most recent 911 GT3 models.
The 928 is indeed the Porsche flagship that never replaced the 911. The 928, 959, Carrera GT, 918, and only the most recent GT3 models have a double wishbone; all the SUV and sedans Porsche has made have double wishbones. A double wishbone suspension is e...

One of my all-time favorites, so many stories ...
.. I heard of several people who drove/owned one. My dream 928 ? A red 928S (300hp) manual with the black/white seats.
A very cool car…
Even if it never was considered a proper Porsche. Even Ferry, when driving the prototype the first time responded with, ‚Der schiesst net‘ (it doesn’t shoot). At the same time it was a very nice GT and a nice car. There’s even a Frenchman who drove one ar...
It was initially even considered a replacement…
But that was not to be 🤷🏻♂️ The owners did not evolve as much as the management back in the day anticipated…
My high school buddy's dad had one 1980s.... we called it The Frog (in green).
Handled nicely, felt nimble... not that we, you know, joy rided it or anything like that as high school kids.
I remember these…
I had a friend in college, his father bought one of these, gave my friend his E30 M3…while I drove my Dodge Dart…boy, was I jealous! Fueled my desire to someday own cool cars…it worked!
Always had a soft spot for the 928
Bring back memories of The Hidden an 80s SF movie.
Ah, wonderful!
My childhood dream car. The most impressive rear end of its time. And it has aged so well. But: It is said to have better aerodynamics when driving backwards.
My brother-in-law
has had a couple of those, fun times had behind the wheel of both of them. Incredible car given the weight,
Love it
Hi Nico I’ve always loved the 911 (but who did not?) but the 928 is close to be my favourite Porsche. I saw one for sale (IRL) recently and was really overwhelmed. I had forgotten this car. Modern design from the 70s that has aged so well it doesn’t look ...
