Hi all. I am the new owner of this car, purchased last week on "Bring-a-Trailer". I have not seen the car in person yet, but it should arrive here in Chicago in the next day or two. I have wanted a 928 for a long time and really, really hard to pass up this one. I can't say what my exact plans are with the car, but it will no doubt see an increase in its roughly 120 mile/year historic usage.
This will be my fourth blue Porsche, in addition to a dark blue PTS 1986 911, a "Midnight Blue Metallic" 1991 964 Turbo (with Bahamas Yellow powder coated brake calipers!) and a new "Gentian Blue" Taycan 4s.
I am going to have a friend of mine who is a really talented photographer shoot the car soon, and I will be sure to post here as well as to his Instagram page. Look forward to updating everyone on the Arrow Blue 928.

Congrats!! It's a beautiful car!!
Here's a pic of the car with my son and my nephew with it at the 2009 OCIC over in Arlington.
My nephew just graduated from college, my son will be a junior at Texas Tech this year.
The boys are older, but the Blue 82 probably hasn't aged a bit..

Ahh, Blue 82
Kai find.
Back in the days of firemed. And whitefox, in an unrelated but epic Kai saga.
Any idea what it last sold for?

IIRC $67k in July of 2020.
Should easily clear that figure if it meets reserve.

Car sold yesterday for $95,000 on BaT. A tremendous result and great to see 928's finally getting long-overdue respect and valuations. I really enjoyed owning the car for a bit, getting to show it twice and also read the overwhelmingly positive comments on BaT. This is a special car and was great to share with others that also appreciate it. A special thanks to Kie and others who know the car and vouched for its quality and condition.

yes. very good result. With buyer's premium, just a slight hair under 100K. Do you know where it is going?

We had the pleasure of seeing Blue82 in person, and photographing the car, when Kie had it in Seattle-- a few hundred posts ago.
The car is absolutely stunning, a perfect time capsule!
The buyer on BAT was "robbss"-- not a handle here, no comments on BAT and first serious bidding. If you have contact, encourage them to stop by and introduce themselves!
