The 1987 model year saw one of the most significant evolutions for Porsche’s iconic 928 grand tourer with the introduction of the S4, updated with an aerodynamically improved body and a new 5.0-liter V8 engine with four valves per cylinder. This launch-year example is finished in Guards Red over Mahogany partial leather upholstery. Reportedly stored inside a climate-controlled environment for nearly 10 years, this S4 is accompanied by a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and is now being offered for auction out of Nevada with approximately 68k miles showing on the odometer.
Distinguished from earlier 928 models, the S4 variant features a more aerodynamically optimized rounded nose and a black polyurethane rear spoiler. This example is finished in the traditional Porsche shade of Guards Red. Accessories include side protection moldings, an electric sunroof, and 16” forged aluminum flat disc wheels wrapped in Kumho Ecsta tires from 2003. The seller notes some minor paint imperfections, including hardly noticeable scratches and a small area of peeling clear coat on the rear hatch. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Inside, the cabin is trimmed in Mahogany partial leather upholstery with a color-coordinated headliner and matching carpets. Amenities include air conditioning, central locking, 8-way power-adjustable front seats, power windows, and an upgraded Alpine stereo. A raised steering wheel hub, left-seat lumbar support, an amplifier system, and a high-output air conditioner were also selected.
The aluminum 5.0-liter DOHC V8 engine is factory-rated at 316 HP and 317 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transaxle, and power-assisted ventilated discs facilitate braking. Optional Sport Shock Absorbers are also equipped. The seller notes that a recent oil change was performed.
This sale will include a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “Fresh from long-term storage, this 1987 Porsche 928 S4 has been stored in a climate-controlled facility for over a decade without regular road use. Recently uncovered, it presents nicely while not being perfect, and makes a great candidate for a driver-quality car. While not driven regularly in 10+ years, it offers an exciting opportunity to service and enjoy one of the era’s quirkier Porsches.”
