1986 928S Should I buy?
Hey guys, I have been a 951 guy for some time now; however, I have been bitten by the 928 bug. I went looking for an S4 but, found a S car instead. Here are the details I have:
1986 928 S
75,000 miles, no wreck history found, Texas car, Silver exterior, black interior, stock. Suppose all records and maintenance is up to date and I have a complete PPI and all checks out. What would be a fair purchase price for such a car? Thanks in advance!

it depends, is the last 4 of the VIN higher than 1000? if it is, then it's an 86.5, which S4 brakes and suspension. I would pay around $8,500 for this car if it's an 86.5 with an okay int/ext and good mechanically. it also depends on your personal taste. Is it 5spd or Auto. Rub strips? If it's a regular 86 I would say $7,500

I agree with Borys' position, with regards to price points for you.
I think the car in question could go for more than $8.5K, but since your ideal car would be an S4, I don't think you should pay a premium for this one.
That said, if you've capped your budget at, say, $10K, you're not likely to find a good S4 at that price; I'd say you'd need to to bump $3k to start finding a selection of comparable S4s.
Good cars always pop up, so patience is a virtue when shopping for a 928.

I've had my shark for about two years now. Before that I had a black 944 NA with 18" Turbo Twists for about 7 years. I sold it to a guy I work with and is still in town also. We really need to hook up sometime. I've never got a closeup of a 951.
