Vehicle Detail
This 1987 Porsche 928 S4 is equipped with the following desirable options from the factory: Guards Red exterior Paint Champagne leather interior 5-speed manual transmission Limited Slip Differential (LSD) Side moldings with sunroof Lumbar support-right seat Left positrol with lumbar Right positrol with lumbar Lumbar support-left seat This 928 S4 sold new at Crestmont Porsche Audi in Ohio and was owned within one family until current owner purchased it in November 2009, at which time it had just under 50,000 miles and was in pristine all original condition. The current owner has spent over $5,000 in maintenance and upgrades by independent Porsche Specialist Auto Clinic during the past year, which has included the following: Replaced timing belt Installed upgraded PorKensioner timing belt tensioning system (significant upgrade) Installed new Laso water pump (not rebuilt) Bleed and filled cooling system Replaced spark plugs Replaced fuel filter Drained and filled manual transmission with Redline gear oil Drained and filled rear differential with Redline gear lube Replaced all engine drive belts Replace rotors and distributor caps Installed cross-pipe in place of catalytic converters Installed Rear Muffler By-Pass Installed short shift kit This 928 S4 currently has just over 55,000 miles and is in immaculate condition, both cosmetically and mechanically as it has had the fortune of being consecutively owned by well-heeled Porsche enthusiasts who have maintained it to a loving “cost is no object” standard. 928 S4s are rarely found in the condition because you could easily spend the market value of the car by taking a “driver” that is a study in deferred maintenance and bringing up to the standard this example is in. I’ll now detail and illustrate how phenomenal this 928 S4 is in all aspects: Exterior: This 928 S4 has its stunning original paint with only touch-up work done to the rock chips and light scratches one would expect a Porsche of this age to have. There are no dings or dents on the body and no known accident history. Unlike most 928 S4s on the market, this one has all of its engine under-trays fully intact. The original forged alloy wheels have their original anodized finish and Porsche crests, which are cosmetically excellent and fitted with nearly new tires. Although unnecessary, this 928 S4 received Ziebart undercoating and Inner Guard for additional exterior protection. Interior: The well-preserved condition of the interior makes it very apparent this 928 was well cared for by its previous owners. The leather is supple and soft with only light wear on the driver;s seat bolster. Unlike most 928 S4s, the dash on this one is crack-free! This Porsche 928 S4 has its original Blaupunkt stereo intact which work and sounds great. The original carpets have had overmats on them since new so they are in beautiful condition as you would expected them to be. The only real flaw with the interior is the that rear leather sail panels are slightly warped (see photos), which is an age-related item that affects all 928’s with leathers sail panels. The spare tire, jack, jack bag, tool kit, original plastic bag with gloves, cargo net, and original owner’s manual set are present and intact with the car. A car cover is also included! The windows are slightly tinted, which keep interior temperatures down and protects the interior from the sun. Mechanical: All mechanical aspects of this 928 S4 are top notch as one would expect it to with all of the recent service and upgrades it has had. The shift kit allows the transmission to be shifted with “rifle bolt” precision. This 928 S4 produces an aggressive and tasteful exhaust note with its cross pipe and rear muffler bypass. The a/c is still the original and superior R12 system, which blows cold. All electrical items on this 928 S4 function as they should. This car will easily pass any rational pre-purchase inspection with flying colors. The current owner initially planned on keeping this 928 S4 for a long time as it has outstanding performance, produces an incredible exhaust note, is fun to drive, and is comfortable to travel in; however, the owner’s newly acquired Ferrari and limited garage space now prompts its sale. This 1987 Porsche 928 S4 will be an incredible value for a Porsche enthusiast that desires a “turn key” 928 S4 with no needs that can be enjoyed immediately. The owner will happily assist interested parties with arranging a pre-purchase inspection at their expense; however, this must be completed prior to purchasing. Terms: A $1,000 non-refundable Paypal or wire transfer deposit is due within 24 hours of the auction ending with the remaining balance paid within 5 business days. The owner will provide the winning bidder with up to 30 days of free storage so that they will have sufficient time to make delivery/shipping arrangements.
