1979 Porsche 928 4.5l v8 5-speed Manual Transmission Thinking about selling my beautiful 928 in original kashmerebiege paint with bbs rims. 45 year old beast but cosmetically not perfect. Will consider some trades but mostly interested in cash obo. Not responding to ‘is this available’. Serious inquiries only. Cons: No A/c, no radio If you know anything about these, this one’s rare.

Our Take:
- Pioneering Spirit: The 1979 Porsche 928 was a bold move from Porsche, aiming to replace the legendary 911—though it never quite did. It was the first production car with an integrated polyurethane front bumper and the only mass-produced sports car to have won the European Car of the Year award in 1978. Guess what? It's this exact V8-powered model that carries the badge of history.
- V8 Powerhouse: The 4.5-liter V8 engine was a first for Porsche, known for its smooth power delivery and balanced performance. With a manual transmission, it offers the rare joy of feeling the raw connection between driver and machine—a sensation modern Porsches sometimes overlook in their pursuit of technological advancement.
- Iconic Styling: The original Kashmirebeige paint and BBS rims on this car are a nod to the era's aesthetic. While some might argue it's not a perfect finish, the imperfections in a 45-year-old car tell stories of its journey, much like a well-used tool that only gets better with age.
- Rarity of Condition: With the absence of A/C and radio, this 928 is stripped to the essentials—no distractions, just pure driving pleasure. For purists, this isn't a con; it's a salute to the days when driving was about connection, not convenience. Plus, try finding another 928 in such a configuration, and you'll see what rarity means!
