Despite gaining a polyurethane rear wing and new front spoiler, the revised “S” variant of the Porsche 928 remained true to the the original 2+2 coupé’s classic and clean silhouette. The updated front-engined grand tourer was also handed an additional 200 cc to round the V-8 engine up to a brawny 4.7 litres for an output just shy of 300 horsepower.
Delivered new in March 1983, the example offered here is presented in its fabulous factory colour of Rauchqaurz (smoke grey) metallic while the interior is trimmed with cream hide. The 16-inch, forged alloy wheels by Fuchs complete the authentic, period appearance.
This Porsche remained in Northern Italy from new through to the 2010s before being acquired by The Curated Collection via the August SA dealer of Ohain, Belgium in June 2016. Then noted as showing 46,400 kilometres, the 928 S has been very sparingly driven since as it displayed only 46,646 kilometres at the time of cataloguing. It further benefits from a space saver spare wheel, jack, tyre inflator kit, plus owner’s guides. A wonderful example of Porsche’s flagship front-engined sportscar, this would be a fine addition to any Porsche collection.
