    Description

    If you can’t pony up the “millions" for the “Risky Business 928” at the Barrett Jackson’s Auction here is your opportunity to own the car that is just like it, only this 928 was produced 346 cars earlier. Each of the 1979 Porsche 928’s were individually hand built. Introduced as the replacement for Porsche’s iconic 911, the 928 was Porsche’s only front engine V-8 coupe. But if you have read this far than you probably already knew that. Most 1979 5-speeds were built without sunroof, body side moldings, or power seats. This 928 is so equipped.
    This particular car was obtained from a garage were it had lived untouched for over a decade, preserved for some lucky 928 enthusiast/collector to have and to hold.
    While Tom Cruise never drove this car, this 928 is nearly identical to the car he learned to drive stick shift in during the filming of the 80’s classic “Risky Business”.
    If you have not experienced the thrill of driving a 928 5-speed think acceleration, torque, and butter. When you settle into the cockpit it will remind you of your grandfather’s leather backgammon game. The precision of the balanced chassis makes this car feel like it is on rails. The torque makes it feel like the tires are grappling into the pavement. Driving this fine Porsche automobile is pure Zen. On the highway, downshift from 5th to 4th and mash the throttle you will feel like a Formula One driver. The timeless style of the 928’s lines will make you the envy of any gathering from frat party to the country club. It just turns heads, but if you are still reading this you probably already knew that.
    This car has
    not
    been restored or detailed. Other than the paint and radio this car is pretty much like it was purchased in 1979 in Santa Fe New Mexico. After recovery, It was professionally serviced and brought up to a safe running condition. The 928 was fitted with new tires and the entire fuel system was sanitized. Engine oil and coolant was serviced and the engine runs well for a car of it’s age and mileage. We have driven the car approximately 500 miles in all types of conditions. When you release the hood you will notice that hood release is perfectly intact and functional. If you turn on the A/C, the compressor cycles indicating there is still remaining r-12 refrigerant in the system. The dash is free of cracks accept one in the middle of the dash pod. The front sun visors are true and work flawlessly. The factory plastic tire change gloves and flat tire bag were with the spare. The warranty booklet shows the hand written ownership transfers and most of the services being performed at the dealership. These types of details indicate that this car has been very nicely cared for, but if you are still reading this you probably knew that.
    Here is a list of items we know do not operate properly; power antenna, cruise, mirror switch, vacuum door locks, fuel gauge, rear hatch latch, a/c charge (compressor is cycling). We are also aware of a small transmission gear box leak and an oil leak at or near the distributor base. All of the tools from the tool kit are missing, but the plastic carrier is in good shape. These are all very common issues with early 928's but again you probably knew that.
    The “Risky Business 928” is likely the most iconic movie car that has ever help push the sales of any single model of automobile. This was the 1983 version of going viral. When Tom Cruise looked at the  camera after the infamous chase scene through the streets of Chicago and echoed the phrase “Porsche there is no substitute” Porsche dealers all over the world jumped up and down with excitement, but if you are still reading this you probably knew that.
    Well now it seems that this particular 928 will also be making an appearance on the screen. This nearly famous 928 is going to appear in a few scenes of the final season of “ Better Call Sal” the prequel to “ Breaking Bad”.  Bonus, this 928 has never seen the wet side of Lake Michigan.
    So here is your chance to own a piece of history-almost.
    *** Note: AS WITH ANY USED CAR, THIS CAR IS BEING OFFERED "AS IS, WHERE IS"  THERE IS NO WARRANTY IMPLIED OR OTHERWISE. THE DESCRIPTION ABOVE IS AS ACCURATE AS POSSIBLE AT THE TIME OF THE POSTING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST IN THIS ITEM AND "Happy Bidding" ***
