About this Collectable

Porsche 928 GTS

The 928 had distinctive round, electrically operated folding headlights and was powered by a water-cooled V8 engine with a 90° block angle. In this first series the engine had a capacity of 4.5 liters, later growing to no less than 5.4 liters. The gearbox was located at the rear axle according to the transaxle principle, which was a revolutionary development with double wishbones (so-called Weissachas, Winkel einstellende, self-stabilizing Ausgleichs-Charakteristik) that behaved as a kind of passive rear-wheel steering. In this first basic version, the 928 has 240 hp under the hood. Modest by today's standards, but at the time well above what Porsche had to offer (except for the 911 Turbo). Completely constructed from aluminum-silicon alloy with 2 overhead camshafts, an engine by the book! The 928 was supposed to be "the" successor to the 911, but now we all know how things turned out.... The 928 was and is known as a great travel car for cruising through Europe at high speed. They are reliable, have little trouble with rust, fast and have excellent road holding, as you would expect from a real Porsche.In 1987, the Porsche 928 S4 was launched as the successor to the 928 S with improved technology such as a cylinder capacity of 5 liters, 32 valves and 320 hp. Furthermore, a new 4-speed automatic transmission and various cosmetic adjustments, such as a newly designed front with a modified front spoiler and a rear with different rear lights and a modified spoiler. From 1990 onwards, an electronically controlled differential lock (Porsche Limited-Slip Differential, PLSD) was fitted as standard, with a locking effect from 0 to 100 percent. The GT was again a better and faster version of the 928 and was built between 1989 and 1991. The real “über-928” came in 1992, the 928 GTS. The engine grew to 5.4 liters with 350 hp and a torque of no less than 500 NM. The top speed was 275 kmh and you went in 5.7 seconds. To the 100kmh.

One of the last GTSs produced is an original Dutch delivered 928 (code C20) and a so-called "werkslieferung". Immediately after collection, the 928 was registered in Switzerland by the only Dutch owner, who had it registered with a Dutch license plate in 2016. It was not his first 928, but his 7th (!!!!). The previous one (1992) was also a GTS. He used the car for what it was made for and had it properly maintained at Porsche Rotterdam. As a result, the car still feels fresh and you feel that this car is made to last. They don't make them like that anymore. Supplied in the cult color Aventuragrün Metallic combined with green leather with black piping. A combination that you rarely see, but the 928 looks great! The optional sports seats are still great and of course the GTS was already equipped with everything that was nice and tasty at that time.

Our opinion

The 928 is an icon that is slowly but surely gaining more and more appreciation. A GT that is on par with a Ferrari from that time. The GTS is the ultimate 928 and you notice that immediately. Almost all options are available as standard, the engine has a lot of torque and the performance is still impressive today. While the 928 used to seem like a large car, today it is a fairly compact sports car, especially if you see it next to a Panamera, for example. Less than 3,000 928 GTSs were built, so rare, especially as a well-maintained example that has not been left to languish under a cloth without maintenance.

About the seller

The 928 is offered by the son (also a Porsche enthusiast) of the 1st and only owner who recently died at the age of 91, a very loyal 928 driver. Both Sr. If Jr. known at PON. 3 weeks before his death, he drove the GTS to Porsche Rotterdam for the MOT. He ordered the 928 new as one of the last of the series, production of which stopped in 1995. He owned no fewer than 7 Porsche 928s, because he absolutely hated flying and therefore drove them all over Europe for work. Probably the only one in the entire world with over a million miles of 928 kilometers to his name!

Remarks

This 928 GTS is still in neat condition for its age and mileage. As far as is known, some parts have been repainted for cosmetic reasons, which is not surprising, of course, for a car that is now 31 years old. A few small hail dents mar the roof and window pillars. We recommend 2 new rear tires upon putting the car into service due to its age. The battery was replaced 1 month ago.
