The Porsche 928, a grand tourer produced by Porsche from 1977 to 1995, was a revolutionary model that aimed to replace the iconic 911 as the company’s flagship. The 1980 USA model, specifically, represents a significant point in the 928's evolution. Unlike its European counterparts, it faced stringent US emission regulations, requiring modifications to its powertrain. The 928's front-mounted, 4.5-liter V8 engine, originally producing 240 hp in Europe, was detuned to 220 hp in the USA. This adjustment, coupled with a catalytic converter and other emission control components, resulted in a slightly less powerful but more environmentally compliant version of the 928. The overall design remained largely unchanged, showcasing the 928's sleek and elegant lines, featuring distinctive pop-up headlights, a low-slung stance, and a luxurious interior.

Despite the power reduction, the 1980 928 USA continued to offer a thrilling driving experience. Its sophisticated suspension system, combined with the precise steering, provided a balance of comfort and agility. The car's impressive handling and smooth power delivery made it a capable performer on both winding roads and highways. The 928's spacious interior, featuring leather upholstery and a comprehensive dashboard, provided a luxurious and comfortable environment for driver and passengers alike. The 928 USA represented a compelling alternative to the 911, offering a more practical and refined driving experience. Its combination of performance, luxury, and practicality made it a popular choice among discerning drivers, solidifying the 928's position as a classic Porsche model that continues to be admired and sought after today.
