This 1981 Porsche 928S is a European-market example optioned without a sunroof that was imported in 1988 and subsequently spent time in Colorado and Texas before the seller’s acquisition in 2018. The car is finished in Rosewood Metallic over beige leather and powered by a 4.7-liter V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transaxle and a limited-slip differential. Equipment includes pop-up headlights, front and rear spoilers, 16″ Gullideckel wheels, power-adjustable front seats, and air conditioning. The car is said to have been repainted in 2015, and an oil change was performed in January 2021.
The car was factory finished in Rosewood Metallic (X7) and is said to have been repainted in 2015. A sunroof is not fitted, and equipment includes pop-up headlights, a rear fog lamp, a rear spoiler, Euro-spec side markers, and dual exhaust outlets.
Platinum-finished 16″ Gullideckel wheels are wrapped in 225/50 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tires with date codes from 2009. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes.
The cabin features seats upholstered in Beige leather (PS) with matching carpets and door panels along with darker leather on the dashboard, center console, and door panel accents. A remanufactured air-conditioning compressor was installed in 2015, and a factory radio blanking plate was sourced by the seller and installed with an additional Porsche crest following the removal of an aftermarket head unit. A replacement air conditioning compressor was installed in 2015 at 81k miles.
Instrumentation consists of a 170-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 6,000-rpm redline and auxiliary gauges. The six-digit mechanical odometer shows 84k miles.
The Euro-spec 4.7-liter V8 was factory rated at 310 horsepower and features Bosch fuel injection. The water pump, timing belt, and engine drive belts were replaced in 2010 at 79k miles and an oil change was performed in January 2021. Fuel system refurbishment in August 2020 included replacement of the fuel tank, fuel pump, and strainer along with the check valve, accumulator, and hoses.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a three-speed automatic transaxle.
