Silver is pretty common. Finding Silver/Black is harder. There is a Silver S3 at a dealer in North Jersey right now and a Silver Euro in the Carolinas that could be a nice car. I know, because I am looking for an 85 or 86 or a Euro and I HATE silver.


Your color combo in Wisconsin: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Porsc...item2573a8a1ad

New Jersey: http://www.giordanoautosales.com/inventory.aspx


Florida: http://www.eliteautofla.com/1324/1986-Porsche-928-S

Use Auto Tempest. You will find a bunch of silver cars. They won't be in your backyard, but they are out there.

Otto, sounds like you and Joey can help each other out! Joey can send you all the cars he finds that aren't silver and you can send him all the ones you find that ARE!

Thumbs up

Yes it is.

I forgot to mention in the ad that it has Bilstein shocks, and I have just put in a new battery. I rebuild the sunroof, works perfectly. I have all the receipts for work done, going back ~10 years.

You can run 16" Phone Dials on an 86.5 also...

I thought so too. Where you cannot run the phone dials is with the adapters and the S4 brakes.
