The 928 debuted in 1977 as Porsche’s second water-cooled, front-engined model, following the earlier 924. Porsche executives might have hoped for better acclaim for the 928 while it was in production, with constant comparisons to the company’s air-cooled models, but later versions of the 928—notably the final GTS model, introduced in 1992—found appreciation as true driver’s cars. The 928’s driving dynamics were praised thanks to the transaxle arrangement that enabled a 50:50 weight distribution, offering sharp handling, while a 5.4-litre V-8 engine delivered an impressive 345 horsepower output.
The 928 GTS offered here was finished by the factory in Oak Green Metallic over a black leather interior, and further enhanced by the desirable optional extras including a manual gearbox, 17-inch Cup alloy wheels, air conditioning, heated seats, and a rear spoiler painted in a matching body colour. The 928 was delivered new to Spain in November 1992 to Miguel Angel de la Fuente del Real of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. The first owner later moved to the Costa del Sol and the car was maintained by C.S. Porsche Sportwagen Marbella (invoices available to view on file). The car remained with the first owner until 2016, when it was acquired by The Curated Collection. Accompanied by its service book, the car displayed 53,277 kilometres at the time of cataloguing.
Representing the pinnacle of 928s and offered in a timeless colour combination, this wonderful manual GTS should not be overlooked.
