The Porsche 928 was intended to replace the 911, that obviously didnt happen and by the late '80s had evolved into an incredible GT.

For me this is a most appealing continent crosser of a GT. In fact, I find it considerably more appealing than the current front-engined Porsches - excellent as they may be. The first 928 I ever saw was in Swaziland - it was finished in pearlescent white, which suited those flowing lines so well and I thought then it was the most beautiful car I'd ever seen. I'd even forgive the 928 its lack of any tea shelf arrangements. I haven't noticed before how far back within the wheelbase the engine actually sits - getting on for being a front mid-engined configuration. I still think that the rear end treatment echoes one of the Pegaso coupes from times past. I had to chuckle when you had a go at pronouncing the word 'timbre', after your insistence on avoiding the Germanic voicing of Porsche! Terrific car (I wish it were mine) and, as always, a great video. Thanks, Matt!

My absolute dream car since it came out. Unfortunately my wallet never matched my dreams. When the 928s came out ,I saw a red (guards red?) one come past me in London ,with a full on red braces wearing yuppie driving , the number plate was THE 928S,. I assume a Porsche GB demonstrator of the time? Nice to see it's covered 188'000 miles,so no garage queen 👍👍up to the owners for using it.

@gosportjamie 3 года назад

You're right, THE 928S was a Porsche UK demonstrator and press fleet car number plate for pretty much the entire life of the 928. Needless to say it's pretty famous from road tests in magazines and the like...

It was the cheapest one in the UK when I got it about 18mths ago, in that time they have doubled in price, glad I bought when I did as even a very poor example is now out of my budget.

I also have a 1987 928 S4, but mines in Grand Prix White, not Guards Red like the one in your video. I was going to ask you if you wanted to do a video on it when I've finished, but I guess I'm too late now! They are amazing cars. You missed mentioning the controls for the electric memory seats. The unknown toggle switch is non-standard. Probably something to do with an after-market alarm. The numbers on the gear shift are not gear indicators, but modes. If you want maximum acceleration from a standing start you need to move the gear selector to '2'. By default the car will set off in second, switching it to mode 2 will cause the car to set off in first and only change up to second when you hit the redline or manually shift to 3. Also, the 928 has something called a Weissach rear axle which allows for a degree of passive rear wheel steer and this is one of the reasons the 928 is so utterly stable at ridiculous speeds.

My dad had 928s in the 80s. A 928S2 in 1986 and a 928S4 in 1989. His 928S2 he only kept for 6 months as did not like as had a XJS V12 before and found the 928 basic and not quicker, so in 1986 got a another XJS but a 3.6 manual which did not keep long it was built on a Friday changed to a BMW 7. The magazines at the time said from 320 to 330 BHP for the S4

@detonator2112 2 года назад

That car design is so timeless. S4 is seriously undervalued car right now compared to the absolutely bonkers prices that air-cooled 911's go for. It's a genuine bargain and the prices WILL go up. Buy them now!!!!

@detonator2112 2 года назад

Only one thing to add: 1987 facelift changed the looks quite dramatically. So visually the S4/GT/GTS facelift wasn't quite the same looking car that was released back in 1977. To my eye, it was much more dramatic change than say, 964 -> 993 which are actually quite difficult to tell apart if you're not a Porsche enthusiast.

Love your channel, great review! Just a tip for standing starts in the 928S4, it uses a 4 speed Merc slush box. Whilst it’s bullet proof, the box starts off in 2nd gear when D is selected! To get the big lump to start in first you have to select 2nd! Very Porsche, an oxymoron just like the Taycan ‘turbo’ lol. Anyway, car really takes off briskly when you start in 1st. Manual is better. I am a lucky boy and own both an S4 and GT. Keep up the great work! Cheers from down under!

Shame you didn't get to try a manual version.. My mother, yes really, had a 928 and then a 928S both in manual and they're a totally different car to those with automatic gearboxes. I well remember borrowing the 928S for a road trip around the UK back in the mid-90s... Wheelspin in 3rd gear but so stable with it. She now contents herself with an early- 2000s WRX. She is 78 after all. Needless to say I borrowed that a few years ago to do a similar trip - couldn't get over how busy the roads were after 15 years overseas.

@mattw8332 3 года назад

WOW! One of my favourite cars of all time. Nice one Matt. Launched in the same year I was born, I first remember seeing these in the 1980s, love everything about them from the exposed pop up headlights to....well just the unique styling of them that has not dated at all imo. This S4 looks fantastic in red. I kinda appreciate a GT car like this rather than something with outright performance and handling anyway.

@BertramSFegg 3 года назад

I love my S4 - when they designed it, they locked the accountants out of the room and let the engineers run riot. It was years ahead of the competition, and I can drive for hours in it with no discomfort. and try do a tip run in a Countach or 328......

@marklawton5753 3 года назад

I was never a fan of Porsche, but the 928 was something else when it arrived. I was in my early teens when it was launched and it was like something from out of space , it still looks modern and fantastic today. The problem this car had was it was born of Porsche. Porsche was 911 end of story at that time which polarises opinion love them or loathe them! It would be interesting if a car of this type had been launched now that Porsche is more than the 911 would it have more accepted? I think so. In my opinion this is one of if not the greatest car designs because it set a whole new path for car design that followed.

@drpaulcampbell188 3 года назад

I used to love seeing these back in the 80s. My doctor always had one as she loved them. Those seats though, they do look really comfy. They probably are my favourite GT car. Great video as always

@roygardiner4002 3 года назад

The bodyshell DID change actually. The GT/GTS had flared rear wheel arches to cover wider rear wheels/tytres. Also the seat adjustments are customised for up to three drivers, memory selection on driver's door. You could have mentioned the reason why a 928 handles so well - the Weissach back axle which optimises the rear castor in corners.

@maxidyne 3 года назад

This car was such a modern design when it was introduced: integrated and aerodynamic bumpers, almost flush windows with the body etc. A family member of mine had a GTS for over 12 years. Sadly the car was written off by a mechanic... Great review Matt!

Always loved the 928. Some used to call it an old man's car compared with the 911 but they were wrong. Great little details like the pantograph rear wiper and extra sunvisors over the back window. I think the instrument binnacle adjusted with the steering wheel to keep it always in the right field of view. Agree on single syllable pronunciation of the name in English, unless you buy one and then you can pronounce it how you like. For the same reason the Countach is "Count-ash".

I've always loved the 928 since the first time I saw one on the late 70s. That gorgeous V8 rumble was so in keeping with the nature of the car. Too bad Porsche, Volkswagen, and Audi have lost the knowledge of how to tune an appropriate exhaust note. Louder and rortier does not equal sporty, and is certainly very much out of keeping with a Bentley. I do wonder why Porsche engineers had to go to the effort of a rear transaxle. After all, the old Volvo 240 with its cast iron Red Block manages to distribute the weight 51% front and 49% rear. With me in the driver's seat and two beagles on the way back, and the weight distribution was exactly 50/50. Even fully laden, the weight distribution changes slightly to 49/51 front to rear as long as you know how to pack properly.

But Porsche actually developed the 924 for Audi, they used the design when VAG decided not to build it. And the VW beetle was designed by Ferdinand Porsche, so all those cars were defacto Porsche in-house designs, plus it's hard to separate VAG and Porsche because VW group is largely owned and managed by the Porsche family

The 911 was somewhat of an icon. An almost unique layout and spec. and beautiful styling too. The 928 might have been a great GT with stunning looks, but with front engine and rear wheel drive, it was essentially a similar product to many other manufacturers offerings. If you love an air-cooled flat six sitting out behind, it's going to be a very big ask to change your mind, and leave behind a product which made Porsche unique. Love this car, BTW, and thank you for showing us around. :-)

Ahhh purists... Perhaps an interesting little story. I tend to fall into that trap myself. Bought myself a late XM as daily driver. It drove splendidly, yet also lived up to its reputation: it leaked all fluids an XM can leak. After a short discussion with the Citroen garage that sold it to me, they agreed to take the XM back, provided I would purchase another car from them. The only car they had that was acceptable to me was a 2007 C4 Grand Picasso. I like MPVs, drove a Voyager in the past, but I never ever would have bought this car if I had a free choice. Two months on I really start to appreciate the modern features of the C4. Compared to my '98 Omega it drives very easy, is quiet, comfortable. Ok the robot gearbox is an aqcuired taste, but overall an easy car to drive. As a daily driver absolutely better than the 15+ year old cars I have driven (as daily drivers) over the past 10+ years...

My SLK has this, I've had a puncture in a front and a rear and luckily Iboth times I was alone so the punctured wheel could go on the passenger seat because it wouldn't fit in the boot! If you're with someone it's a recovery job which irks for a puncture!

Lapine wasn't "...American born..." He is of Lithuanian descent and started his career in the US in 1951 at General Motors. In 1965, Lapine came back to Europe and worked for OPEL. Lapine designed all transaxles cars (924, 944, and the most beautiful car ever, the 928 at Porsche) Anatole Carl Lapine (* 23. Mai 1930 in Riga, Lettland; † 29. April 2012 in Baden-Baden) Wikipedia

I’ve never clicked on a RU-vid video so quickly. The 928 has always been my dream car 😍

I have to confess that, when you showed the trim I was trying to work out why it said 826. I'll close the door on my way out...

If they'd left Clarkson in South America instead, it would certainly not have been a loss, more a masterstroke.

Totally agree about the pronunciation of Porsche I like to remind people who trip me up that the reason they don’t change the way they say Renault or Citroen is because there not french.
