Default For Sale: 1988 Porsche 928 S4 Manual -Now on eBay

Now on eBay: eBay Listing
Starting at $15,000 with no reserve and a "Buy It Now" of $21,000 - but I will still honor $20,000 to Rennlist members prior to auction close.



I’ve decided not to take my 928 with me to the UK, so it with a heavy heart I am putting it up for sale.

Runs and drives very well.

I wanted to post this as soon as I made my decision – I am out of town this week and will post detailed exterior, interior, and engine bay photos later this weekend – in the meantime I’ve added some “glamour” photos that I do have access to at the moment.

Located in Trinity, TX

Now $20,000 obo

Very pretty car, and somewhat underpriced based on your description. Do you have any of the missing equipment? Cats can be important.

Thanks for the compliment!

I am going to be somewhat firm on the price, but I am hoping it is priced to move fairly quickly - I am scheduled to close on the sale of my house on June 7th and fly back to Scotland the 14th.

I do not have the cats, the original muffler, original wheels, or air pump. I do have the original steering wheel.

This is literally the kind of 928 I'm hoping to add to my collection. I need to sell off a few cars first though. My neighbor said he wants to buy one soon. We'll see how serious he is.

If it's still available when I'm ready to buy, I will be in touch!

I do NOT need another 928. I do NOT need another 928. I do NOT need another 928. I do NOT need another 928.

I really don't need another car. 3 cars and a one car garage is barely manageable. Four would be a nightmare.

But daaaaaayuuuum.


This one is tempting.
I just saw a 90 the same color scheme (Taxman lives a few miles from me and we got together). The black/tan interior is really cool, especially with the red.

GLWS. Sell it soon so the temptation is removed.
