89GT, $9K, hmm. It sure looks like a project, but priced right, this could be a good one.

Any GT deserves to, and will be saved... But the economics are questionable today. None-the-less, these cars are rare and eventually will be worth substantial $$$'s in any condition.

That said:

If restored professionally, in todays market, this car is $110,000+ dollars from being a #1 $70,000 car.

If restored by a qualified and knowledgeable enthusiast, this car is ??? $$$'s from being a #2 $50,000 car. (it is super variable because of skills and ability to control costs)

Projected 10 years down the road, it really does not matter because the ten year trend on these cars has been a doubling every four years or so.

With classic Porsches: "You can not pay too much, you can only buy too soon" is an adage worth considering.

So for my popcorn money, this is a great deal (for someone that does not already have a garage full of them and a ten + year timeline for enjoying the car and some decent appreciation).

Enjoy the chase!


P.S. I really need to build that garage...

With some ankle biter maintenance; I think this one could be something special! Probably need a closer look at that paint. The guy is asking just shy of 9000, but again, if the price was just negotiated a little lower, this one checks a lot of boxes.

I've gotten a driving video of this. It's pretty nice. Anyone else talked to him?

Default Need help with the right price

Hi - Hoping to get some help with pricing a car.
I'm looking at buying a1988 928 S4 in very good condition. Auto. Guards Red. 82K KM, which is about 55K miles. Everything works. Well serviced. Not tracked. Everything checks out. It's not perfect, but very good and a straight car. Looking for the acceptable price range for this car. Thanks in advance!

I almost pulled the trigger on this. Talked with the guy quite a bit. Seemed legit. The paint is not original; but that is a competition package car. Love the interior. I think the exterior original color was brown; so that turned me off on the red paint; and if you look around the front emblem; you can see the paint job. Great driver though and almost reasonably priced in my opinion if he would come down a bit.I believe all the major work is done.

the only reason I didn’t buy it was because a certain cancan Prussian splashed into view here, and that was all she wrote for my willpower.

Anyone with a barn and 9k could buy this car, park it under a tarp and double their money in 5 years.

if I didn’t already own two project cars; I’d buy this one. GTs are getting to be super rare in any condition.

dammit all to hell!!

Has it been confirmed to be a GT? 1989 had S4 5 speeds.

Good point. During inspection; First check would be for that M28/47 block stamp.
but again; if it’s legit, someone needs to snag this.

Regrettably, I absolutely don’t have room for this car. I just said it again out loud in front of a mirror.

It does say '928GT' on the rear bumper cover, and it has the dual outlet exhaust.

I'm going to check this out at 2PM CDT today. Let me know if anyone wants to talk about it first, and I'll ask some questions for you. It's too big of a project for me, i think.

Cool, look forward to the report back. Like everyone, too far for me, too many other projects etc...but lets hope someone can save this one!
P.S. It has the jump post cover and rain shield so it can't be all that bad
