This is a very rare and desirable 1986.5 Porsche 928S. The reason it is rare and desirable is that in 1986, revised suspension settings, larger brakes with 4-piston calipers and modified exhaust was installed on the 928S, marking the final changes to old body style cars. These were straight from the 928S4, which was slated to debut a few months later (starting as a 1987 model). These changes came starting from VIN 1001, which means that the first thousand '86's had the old brakes, but later cars had the later systems. This later 1986 model is referred to as a 1986.5 because of these changes. This special mid-year had many of the S4 performance and mechanical updates without the extra weight. This means it also has the better'85-86 engine, lighter gross weight (compared to the S4), and the start-in-first-gear auto transmission valve-body. All around, it's the superior and rare car. Options : Air Conditioning, Alarm System, Cruise Control, Foglamps, Intermittent Wipers, Leather Seats, Power Brakes, Power Door Locks, Power Steering, Power Windows, Sunroof and probably more. I bought the car a year ago from a collector in Maine but I am downsizing my collection so selling this one without really doing too much to it other than title it under my name, have my mechanic top the fluids, and reviewing it visually. Carfax is clean. No accident history. The car is sold AS IS WHERE IS. You should come and inspect it if you are local and if not, have someone do it for you. I don't know anything about its history and very little about its current condition other than what I can see as described below: The cars runs and drives but needs some work. I had the fluids toped but it did not go through a comprehensive mechanical checkup. you will have to do it yourself. seats are in mint condition, few cracks in the dash, door panels and rest of interior are great for the age, most gauges and electrics work, but I did not check every single one of them. Exterior looks complete and good, no visible rust. Several scratches but nothing deep. probably most will be buffed with good detail. part of the front lip seems to be missing. The wheels and tires are good but tires are old. Consider it as a car that needs work to make it a daily driver. I do not have time and energy to do it. again, sold AS IS WHERE IS.
