Default 1978 928 Euro 5Speed

I tried posting in the classified section....it would not let me. I have the above car for sale....about 70k miles, very clean. I'll try and post a picture. P/M me if interested.

You need to be a paid member to post "for sale" messages.

nice looking no rub strips or sunroof, the P7 tires are how old ??? Not posting a price or location makes it real hard to stir up any interest. It would also be nice to know the vin # , and is the odometer in miles or KM ?

That's awesome! Euro car without aftermarket side-markers. Beautiful!!! Hope you can find a good home for it.

Where is the car located?

When, why, and which parts of the car were repainted? Was anything removed for the job, or was it just masked off? Please tell us more about the paint work that was done.

From an older post by geffen...

1978 euro 928 s/n 9288100579

Would be ultra cool if it had the pasha interior...but from the one pic ...looks like black leather..either way...sneak in a price before the mods lock you down..

A '78 w/ P7's is interesting. How old is that pic? What is the VIN? Which Ferrari is that?

And, yeah, cough up the whole $20.00.

Gawd Jim- your avatar!

You must pride yourself on how cheap and ugly a 928 can be!

I know, I know...

At least it has blue plates.

You do realize that I only use it as a track car. I get great satisfaction when my lap times are better than those with MUCH MUCH nicer newer model Porsche cars. Last event the guy pitted next to me ...after chasing me around the track and passing me... offered to let me drive his car.....New GT2 RS the $250,000 sticker 911 Turbo hotrod 602 HP, 202 MPH top speed. I do not think he wanted to drive mine
If I painted it it would NOT go any faster and I am really not one who cares much what other people think...besides if the motor blows the car probably gets parted out. It did cost me $1,800 about eleven years ago so it "owes" me nothing
Which is part of the reason I auditioned for the new T V show Whipped where you drive the "autocross" with things you could hit rather than cones....things like florescent tubes, panes of glass, cinder blocks. 55 gallon plastic drums full of water....If I run faster than the other 3 contestants I will win $25,000 worth of upgrades to the old very brown 1980. I still have a shot at being on the show. Filming begins in about one month.

The speedo is in Kph....Also, all of the control wording is in German. Dash is almost perfect...interior could just use a good cleaning. I also have a spare 5Speed trans that comes with the deal. I bought it in 1994 for $7,400.00.....I'd take the same today. I also have the 8 volume repair manual, and the shipping papers from when it was brought to the States in 1984.
