The Porsche 928 is a grand touring coupe that was produced by Porsche from 1977 to 1995. It was designed as a potential successor to the iconic 911, offering a more practical and luxurious driving experience. The 928's distinctive design was a departure from the traditional Porsche formula, featuring a front-mounted engine and a transaxle rear drive system. This configuration provided a smooth and balanced ride, with a low center of gravity that contributed to its impressive handling. The 928 was also powered by a range of powerful V8 engines, ranging from 4.5 liters to 5.4 liters in displacement. This combined with its advanced technology, including a sophisticated Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection system and a 4-speed automatic transmission, made the 928 a performance powerhouse.
Despite its impressive performance and innovative design, the 928 never quite lived up to the expectations of a 911 successor. Its front-engine layout was initially met with skepticism by purist Porsche fans, and the 911 remained the brand's flagship model. However, the 928 garnered a devoted following for its luxurious comfort, smooth handling, and impressive performance. The 928 also became known for its reliability and durability, thanks to its well-engineered design and robust components. Today, the Porsche 928 is considered a classic sports car and a highly desirable collectible. Its distinct design, powerful engine, and comfortable interior have made it a popular choice among car enthusiasts and collectors. While often overshadowed by the 911, the 928 holds its own as a unique and compelling sports car with a rich history and a dedicated following.
