This 1981 Porsche 928 is powered by a 4.5-liter V8 paired with a five-speed manual transaxle and is finished in Platinum Metallic over tan leather. Equipment includes 15″ phone-dial alloy wheels, a power sunroof, cruise control, fog lights, automatic climate control, and a Pioneer AM/FM cassette stereo. The car is said to have been acquired by the seller from its second owners, who reportedly owned the vehicle for 28 years. Work performed in preparation for sale included replacement of the water pump, timing belt, and the interior temperature sensor along with repairs to the left door lock and the right window regulator.
The car is finished in Platinum Metallic and features integrated bumper covers, pop-up headlights, fog lights, and a rear wiper.
Early-offset 15″ phone-dial alloy wheels feature full-color Porsche-crest center caps and wear 215/60 BFGoodrich Comp T/A tires. Stopping power is provided by four-wheel disc brakes with slotted rotors up front. A factory tire inflator is included in the sale.
The 2+2 cabin features tan leather seating surfaces with matching door panels and carpets along with a contrasting brown dash and center console. Equipment includes a Pioneer AM/FM cassette stereo, a power sunroof, an analog clock in front of the shifter, electric mirrors, and power windows. Warping is noted on the glovebox door and wear is visible on interior surfaces. Service in June 2021 included replacement of the interior temperature sensor and repair of the left side door lock and right side window regulator.
A leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 170-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and gauges for voltage, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and fuel level. The six-digit odometer shows 112k miles.
The 4.5-liter V8 was factory rated at 231 horsepower and 265 lb-ft of torque for the North American market. Work completed in June 2021 at Gerber Motorsport of Seattle, Washington, included replacement of the timing belt and water pump.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a rear-mounted five-speed manual transaxle.
