Thanks for sharing this. Interesting read.

Do any of you think that the market value of these will ever rise?

Part of me says, "I sure hope so!"

... but another part says, "Only while they remain under-appreciated, do they remain cheap, and I can afford them."

Niiiice. I the particularly like this comment:

"With expensive parts and labor most 928s suffer from cheap owners rather than unreliability. I would go as far as to say that they are more reliable than early 911s."

When searching for my 928 there were many that had clearly sustained mistreatment by the owner and not properly maintained.

Good read.

If Porsche builds another V8 coupe, then the cat will be outta the bag regarding cheap 928's. I'm keeping mine the remainder of my life, so my grandson will be the one who makes out all the way around.

FWIW, like most of the owners on this forum, I spend what ever the car requires as far a maintenance. If I'm short of cash it sits till I have the money to buy what it needs.

Good read, wonder why it's taken 3 years for it to come to light here.
