2nd 928 S4 In 5 Years, Do I Have Issues?
Yeah, saw a 1989 928 S4 with 80,000 miles on sale in OKC. Decided to pull trigger and had a friend who ironically lived there. He checked it out and said it was okay. Sent me a few pictures and they looked good. Rented a car and left Thursday morning at 5:15 from El Paso with my good friend Andre. Stopped for a 18 ounce steak at The Big Texan in Amarillo, stuffed at the stomach we head to OKC and got to destination at 6:30 PM.
At first car didn't look like it did in pictures, looked weathered and tired. I hesitated about pulling trigger and then took it out for a drive with owner. Felt good and strong. Came back, haggled on price after pointing out some things it had. Got $1,000 off the price( I won't mention price).
Drove away to Twin Peaks in Edmond, OK and watched Bears get spanked by Packers. Having had some beers I started thinking if I had made a bad choice. Went to bed at a friends house who happened to live in Edmond, and I went mimi's thinking about my doubts.
Next morning(Friday) had breakfast and then headed out by 10 AM. Once on the open highway things completely changed in my eyes! WOW! What a beast! Thing has ridiculous amount of power! I would open it up a few times here and there and thing doesn't hesitate to get to 135 at all! Made it home last night at 10:15 tired and ready for bed by 11 after a good shower.
Car has been owned by 3 people including me. Original owner purchased in 1988 from Dallas, kept it till 2014. Then sold it to owner I purchased from and now its my turn. I have original window sticker, manuals and some extra items.
Car is a bit beat up from Sun. Leather is dry and will be taking care of that in the next day or two. Will buy a car cover for it and just have it sit for a while till I'm done doing my 87's engine rebuild. Just decided to get this one since I liked it.
Here are some pictures.
