This 928 S4 is a 5 sp, has the 220:1 final drive, with the LSD differential , rare and wanted option on these cars . Creates smooth, long pulling shifts. Cruse 70 mph @ 2150 rpms. All things work as they should. lights,a/c power controls est. EXCEPT FOR: 1.)Heater temp. control, it gets hot, turns off too. But not tunable, (except by fan speed, there fine and venting changes fine too). 2.) Just this month, the driver door handle stopped opening the door gradually? Found on the web where it is an adjustable bar/shaft. (turnbuckle) with a lock nut that probably unlocked, not typical for 928's not a big problem. 3.( dash cracks are typical and this one is showing cracks. We all know that the 150.00 dash caps (not the carpet covers) look good and go on easy, Did a 280 Z yrs ago and I was thrilled. The interior over all in good condtion no rubbed raw spots or tears. The exterior has miner chips, front and front of the mirrors. One weird spot on the roof, car has older second paint job, its smooth tho? and all paint is shiny. And last thing , the left rear corner looks a little bumped , never saw it till the first wash. The free vehicle history may expose something for us all. I don't drive the car hard, but I do enjoy wide mountain freeway driving with this car. AFTER MARKET : steering wheel is Porsche, but not 928. I remember the price(630.00) but think its from the 911 line . The rims are nice, left rear very lite rash spot. fronts: 18x9 ,rear are 18x10 inch. tire size 11''wide rears 295/30 zr 18's. front 9.'' wide , 225/40zr 18's . Exhaust, stock except for the new X pipe( 30 hp) and pair of s.s. cats, making a low V8 rumble. good alpine single cd player. calls, ok , any time , Im hard to reach but will surely call you back, I work 12 hr shifts and turn the ringer off till I get up. thank you , bill / 541-680-0053

Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid
Mon, 28 Apr 2014Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
McQueen's Porsche 917 from Le Mans races to the auction block
Mon, 23 Jun 2014Steve McQueen may have been the headline actor of the motorsport cult classic film Le Mans, but we all know who the real star was. Or rather, what: the Porsche 917. More specifically, it was the Gulf-liveried #22 - not McQueen's #21 - that won the race, making it one of the most iconic cars ever to drive across the silver screen. And now it's going up for auction.
This 1969 Porsche 917K, chassis 917-024, has a storied history both on and off the screen, even if it didn't win any (off-screen) races of note. This example was the first 917 to be campaigned in an actual race when Porsche handed it to Jo Siffert to drive against the Ferrari 312P and Ford GT40 at the Spa-Francorchamps 1000 Km race in 1969. Siffert found the early example too unstable and ultimately drove an earlier 908 to the checkered flag, but after 917-024 set the fastest time at the following year's Le Mans test day, Siffert acquired it outright.
The Swiss racing driver loaned the car to Solar Productions for use in the film, after which it returned to Siffert's collection until he was killed in an F1 exposition race at Brands Hatch in 1971. In a testament to how much he loved the car, it was 917-024 that lead the funeral procession. The car subsequently fell off the radar until it resurfaced in 2001 as one of the greatest barn finds of the new millennium. Now fully restored and resplendent in its original baby blue and orange, 917-024 is headed to the auction block at Pebble Beach where you can be sure that Gooding & Company will bring in a suitably high price for arguably the most iconic example of one of the most iconic Porsches of all time.
Porsche 918 Spyder debuts with new N"urburgring lap record [w/video]
Tue, 10 Sep 2013It's been a long time in the making, but Porsche has finally revealed the final production version of its long-awaited 918 Spyder here at the Frankfurt Motor Show. And yet that's not even the big news surrounding the hybrid hypercar.
No, the big news is that, while Porsche was preparing taking the wraps off the car here in Frankfurt, elsewhere in Germany a team was setting a blistering lap time at the Nürburgring. And not just any blistering lap time, but a new world record.
Porsche claims that, on the morning of September 4, a team of three drivers (including former rally champ Walter Röhrl and Porsche test drivers Timo Kluck and Marc Lieb) broke the Nordschleife lap record, Lieb finally setting the best time at 6:57 at an average of 111 miles per hour.
