Default How do you like the 928 compared to other Porsche models?

Anything particular you like better in other models?

Or just random thoughts.

Not really. There was a series of prototypes, I think they were usually numbered 911's but the engineers finally figured out they had the engine too small and in the wrong place and that liquid cools better than air and so they built the 928.

For the 80's I like the 928 the best hands down. Once the 996 came out the 911 was much more appealing to me. The 944/924 doesn't look like a Porsche in my opinion. I don't mind the Boxster, but I prefer a 2+2.

Wow. What a question. Cayenne is a spicy meataball. "Like better in other models" ?? In a word - no.

[Edit - I see now from your handle you HAD a 928. Never mind.]

Of course there are other models such as the fancy beetle known as the 911. but for some reason they keep their value better than the 928.

You are asking too early. Try again when the two-door version of the Panamera comes out.

930 factory slant nose - only car I would give up one of my 928's for.
