'82 Platin Metallic 5 spd FS
Time to sell one of my 928s so I have room to work on the other in my garage. Bought this guy back in 2012, and no bones about it, she’s far from perfect. That said, she’ll be a good driver once the brakes are fixed (If I get time before it sells, I’ll be doing the repair).

Price: $4,000 until I get the brakes fixed, then $4,500. Firm.
Issues:

Interior- Needs TLC (See pics), passenger side hatch panel is a vinyl replacement. pd cracked, tear in passenger seat lower cushion.
Mech- slight grind shifting between 1st and 2nd.
HVAC- AC needs drier replaced, vacuumed, and recharged with r134, wire to compressor broken.
Electrical- rear passenger side marker occasional goes out
Brakes- pedals is soft and goes straight to floor- believed to be master cylinder
Center Console- Ashtray needs replaced.
Windshield cracked (not change in the two years I’ve owned)

That's alot of 928 for the bucks... and competition optioned as well!
Might I suggest you may be selling your 928 short? However I may be completely wack on the 928 market.

That does look good for a low price.

That is a very nice car for not a lot of money and should be snapped up.

You are right re the sport seats.
First time reading that re the 3-spoke however. Curious on that one for sure... love the 3-spoke wheel!

Front & rear spoilers were part of the Comp. package or someone had them fitted. In 82 they were only available with the Comp. package.

Yes, it is a comp package with comfort seats. As for the steering wheel, I can't speak to whether it is original. Could be a replacement if the comp came with a three spoke.
Driver's bolster pic as requested.

Porsche could have made things a lot easier if they had just added an option code to include spoilers on the US cars.
Let's face it, since the EuroS motor wasn't on the table, most US buyers only cared about the appearance of the spoiler look.
Calling an appearance upgrade "Competition Package" has sure misled a few of us over the years.

Why are you keeping the auto and selling the five speed?
If I was only able to keep one of mine, I'd keep my manual.
So just curious if there's a story behind that decision...
How many miles are on it? (didn't see that mentioned anywhere).
We're looking for an affordable manual (project) for my son...
