The Appeal
The 928 was originally conceived as a successor to the 911, but found its true calling in a segment above, in the rarified world of grand touring. Magnificently built, unmistakable among other GTs, and with a perfect 50:50 weight distribution and remarkable agility, these front-engine V8 Porsches are simply among the greatest sports GTs of all time.
In metallic forest green over beige leather, this low-mileage car is one of the last upgraded S4s with the 320hp 5L V8. It spent its entire life on salt-free roads in Japan until arriving in France in 2013. It was stored dry until 2021, when a lengthy and costly recommissioning process began.
Since the seller purchased it in February 2023, over €7,000 has been invested in maintenance and restoration at specialist shops. The car presents beautifully thanks to this recent investment and moderate use. There are a few minor points to note, detailed below. Registered on French collector plates with matching serial numbers and equipped with a valid inspection through March 2028, this 928 S4 appears to be a well-prepared example of the Porsche grand touring icon.
The seller states:
"Drives perfectly, with steering as precise as a good 928 should have! An excellent high-performance GT, perfect for long-distance cruising in complete comfort."
