Check with your Registry/Department of Motor Vehicles for any special considerations). This is a grey market car imported by special order. I selected it for a number of reasons, including the unusual color- I wanted to avoid the common and cliché black/red/silver shades. On this car, the light bronze metallic has a subtle gold hue without being garish, and looks very rich with the brown interior. It has Bosch CIS fuel injection instead of the U.S. LH jetronic, and produces 300HP versus the US 240HP. This also means that it was federalized, the speedometer was removed and replaced to change from km/h to mph when imported. The car is noteable in that it is configured as a lightweight, without the sunroof that reduces headroom or frivolous things like cruise control and remote hatch release. It has manually adjusted sport seats, redyed and the color looks great. She’s set up to scoot with the M474 sport suspension (Bilstien shocks, higher spring rates) 5 speed manual transmission with higher Euro gearing and the European shift pattern. Sells with one set of wheels- original forged 'flat' wheels with rare gold tone, or classic phone dials refinished with near zero miles. And check out that gauge set! I bought the car out of long term storage by the prior owner and did a substantial refresh. Modifications are minimal, but include a short throw shifter, performance ignition coil and digital multi-spark ignition. All major fuel system parts were replaced or rebuilt including the pump, fuel distributor, warm up regulator and injectors. It has the higher flowing later 5.0Liter/32valve headers, factory catalytic converters from a 928GT and the stock final muffler. Nice Eclipse radio/cd with MP3 jack, amp, speakers etc- but if you aren't just enjoying sound of the powerplant you are missing out. I am selling either locally or via auction (right to end reserved) due to relocation. I have taken a job out of state working in an urban area and I refuse to convert this car to daily driver combat in such an environment. If I were in a rural area I sure would. So if you have designs on making this a track car that’s your business, but I don’t want to think about it! Car starts and runs well when I get back home every few weeks, though I have not been driving it due to expired tags/registration. A/C has been cold but the blower fan just ceased operation, I believe it is a fuse or relay. As such, no warranty on it, it is sold as is, where is. Comes with a decade + of solid documentation and receipts. Vehicle also offered locally, so procrastinate at your own risk! This car is distinct & unique enough that with proper care near-term appreciation from the "buy it now" price is a good bet and long term appreciation seems a near certainty!Values for 928s are trending upward, more common US versions are:http://www.nadaguides.com/Classic-Cars/1983/Porsche/928S/2-Door-Coupe/Values"While 356s and 911s are consistently viewed as good earners, it’s flown under the radar of many that the 928 itself is experiencing quite a rise in values of late. Over the past 12 months, prices have risen nearly 20% according to Hagerty, with S, S4, GT, and GTS models at the tip of this trend—in fact, these cars have seen closer to a 30% increase during the past year (see Hagerty graphs above)." from http://www.petrolicious.com/porsches-once-controversial-928-gaining-value-in-used-market //germancarsforsaleblog.com/1983-porsche-928s-5-speed-euro-spec/
