    My Newly Acquired 535i Just Didn't Cut It For Me...

    So...when I find one of my dream cars for sale at the right price, its a done deal.



    You're looking at a 1986 Porsche 928S. One owner car from Mount Vernon, Texas. It was originally sold at Forest Lane Porsche in Dallas, so its been a TX car all its life. It has 132,000 Miles, cosmetically, its a 10 foot car. Mechanically, the motor is strong.

    There are little things wrong with this car (i.e. - passenger power window, sunroof, & mirrors don't work. A/C Compressor kicks in, but has a bad clutch, alarm goes off if door is unlocked from the outside, etc...)

    Sweet. A friend in H.S.'s Dad had a 79 (in 79) We did the risky business at midnight regulary (minus the sub commander)

    Man what a sweet car to flog on Mulholland when you are young dumb & you know the rest.

            it is infact an auto tranny. sadly more automatics where put in those cars than manual trannys.

              I prefer a manual as well, but with a car this old, its hard finding the one you want.

                      928s are in my top 3 cars of all time. I am jealous... You are lucky, you got the old body and the 32v motor... I love you.

                              best thing you can do with that is what Tom Cruise did with his dad's in "Risky Business" - Drive it into a Lake.
