Vehicle Detail

This is one awesome vehicle! Everybody in the county knows this car, and every head turns when I rumble through downtown in this impressive 1980 Phantom Yellow Porsche 928S. And I mean rumble! It sounds like a Porsche, looks like a Porsche, runs like a Porsche, but best of all, it is a Porsche! With less than 78,000 original miles, this fuel-injected beauty is not only ready to turn heads wherever you go, it’s ready for the road, it’s ready to cruise around in, and it’s ready to be shown off in that antique muscle-car club you’ve always wanted to be a part of. You don’t have to call them though; they’ll be asking you to join. It’s time you got some excitement in your life so you can live it the way you deserve. If you’ve never driven a Porsche, here’s your chance. This beautiful machine with the original 4.5 liter engine and five-speed manual transmission, is ready to hit the road. All gears will shift smoothly and effortlessly when you jam the accelerator to the floor, launching yourself into a new world of speed, and as you blast down the highway passing everything in sight, you will quickly understand their trademark line: Porsche, there is no substitute. According to Porsche manufacturers as well as Tom Cruise in the movie Risky Business, the 928S has a maximum speed of 146 miles per hour, and yet, it cost me $1,300 and six points off my license for an Alabama State Trooper to tell me the top speed is 161. I didn’t even know he was chasing me until I slowed down. He told me that try as he may, he not only could not catch me, I was actually pulling away from him. I’m 58, but I have a wild streak left over from my teen years. Translation: I still love fast cars. My eyesight isn’t what it was though, and I really want to see 59, even 69, so it’s best that my racing days be over. If yours aren’t, get ready for an exceptional machine that handles superbly at any speed. It’s a Porsche though; you would expect that. This awesome vehicle will outrun virtually every car you see, and yes, even that Corvette you just passed will think twice about messing with you, especially after you blow by him and he sees seven of the scariest letters known to man: P-O-R-S-C-H-E. I’ve had a lot of things done to this 928 to make sure it stays ahead of the other “lesser” cars. All this was done within the past year: The clutch was replaced, along with the battery, cam chains, plugs, gears and seals, front main seal, belts, hoses, pulleys, timing belt, timing belt tensioner, spark plugs, ignition wires, and water pump. The tires are in great shape too. There are a few minor cosmetic issues on this car, but that’s to be expected from a 1980 vehicle. Otherwise, this is an exceptional vehicle, but for my own good, I must let it go. This is a no reserve auction, so the high bidder will drive away with one fabulous racing machine. I’m also advertising it locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction early. I will deliver this car up to 75 miles at no charge.On May-14-11 at 17:35:13 PDT, seller added the following information: The VIN is correct on this vehicle. I copied it directly off the title. Vehicle history reports are available only on cars that were made after 1981.
