1985 Porsche 928S Coupe, V8, Auto, Sunroof, Premium Sound, BBS Wheels
Here is a
absolutely drop dead gorgeous, 1985 Porsche 928S that is in very
nice condition inside and out.
This is a very solid Arizona car that is a
blast to drive, so much so the original owner nick named it "Red Jet" as seen on the original front plate. It is a very clean, unmolested car that has been
very well kept over the years. This car has always lived in Arizona although the car fax shows it has been registered in Colorado- the owner had a home there. This car is a true Arizona car. Bought new at Scottsdale Porsche by original and only owner Mr. Ron Mcgee on January 28th, 1986. Everything is dry and clean! This 928S had an original MSRP
of $54,029 all the back in 1985! The 928 was made forever famous by Tom Cruise in the blockbuster Risky Business. There is nothing cooler then a driving vintage Porsche!

The exterior of the 928S is finished in the absolute best color of Guards Red and underwent a show quality repaint about 5 years ago according to the original owner. This was a no expense spared refinish and it looks better now that it did when painted from the factory. The entire car was pulled apart and not a tape line or over spray mark can be found anywhere. The beautiful re-paint was finished off with a hand painted gold pinstripe which compliments the beautiful BBS multi piece wheels and new tires. The
body is totally solid and is as straight as an Arizona arrow, with no dings dents or bumps EVER. All door gaps appear to be factory
original and correct.
Overall the underside is completely solid and rust free as any AZ car should be. All the weather stripping on the car
is soft and supple. The factory electric sunroof seals up nicely
and headliner is perfect, and is in excellent condition with no rips or ware.
The very nice Palomino interior
looks excellent. The seats, door panels, carpet, and headliner all
look very nice and really set the car off. The special order leather interior was always protected by sheep skin seat covers, and a nice pair will come with the car! The gauges are all
in excellent condition and work correctly. There are a couple hairline cracks on the cluster cover, a common issue and as to be expected from a lifelong Arizona car! All the gauges and lights work as
they should. The original radio and speakers were factory upgraded to the centrally balanced Porsche Loudspeaker system that sounds great. All the
courtesy lights as well as all the running lights work as they
should. Also the lights, horn, turn signals, defroster work. Glass remains in tact with no cracks or chips.
Mechanically, this 928s is in excellent condition! Anyone who knows
Porsche knows that these early 80's Porsche's are regarded as the
best years to own. The engine compartment is clean as a whistle
and shows how well this car was kept. Both the Engine and Trans
are factory numbers matching. The car was just serviced and oil
changed at a local Porsche specialist and was given a clean bill of
health (Stuttgart Southwest). The suspension is tight and true and handles as a Porsche
should. The car easily cruises at Autobahn speeds well over
100mph. The odometer reads a bit under 45,260 miles, which is AutoCheck certified to be original. This car was dealer maintained under the warranty until right around 23,000 miles (Major Service Completed). From there the car was taken care of religiously via oil changes and fluid flushes prior to their due date. All
systems work and the car does not over heat and is a true pleasure
to drive. The Air Conditioning was just serviced and blows Ice
Cold. This little diamond and is ready for the next cruise
night or car show.
The
bonnet is in excellent condition and still retains all of its
factory carpeting as well as the space saver
spare with the original jack and compressor in box. Also all the gas
struts have been replaced on the rear hatch as well as the engine
compartment. The documentation on this car is as good as yo...
