FactA loaded 928 GTS could crest $100,000 in 1995 — among the priciest cars on the road — which is exactly why Porsche shipped only 77 of them to the US.
From the second half of 1986 the 928 S4 (a 1987 model) brought a 5.0 L 32-valve V8 to all markets at 320 PS (316 bhp), with a single-disc clutch, a larger torque converter and a cleaner, rounded nose with the front spoiler integrated and a separate rear wing. A Club Sport up to 100 kg lighter came to continental Europe and the US in 1988 (19 built), the UK got the SE, and the GT (from about February 1989, manual only, a 40% limited-slip, 330 PS) replaced the slow-selling CS and SE. From 1990 the S4 was automatic only, with the 959-derived PSD variable-ratio limited slip and RDK tyre-pressure monitoring standard. The S4 and GT ended after 1991, making way for the final 928 GTS (late 1991 in Europe as a 1992 model, spring 1992 in North America) with new bodywork, bigger front brakes and a 5.4 L, 350 PS engine, but loaded examples topped US$100,000 by 1995 and it was discontinued that year after only 77 were shipped to the US. Production: S4 15,682 (1987–91), GT 2,078 and GTS 2,904.

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.

The 928 bowed out quietly: when the flagship GTS was finally discontinued in 1995, only 77 of them had ever been shipped to American buyers.
The 928's shark-nosed pop-up headlights weren't a Porsche original — they were based directly on the units from a Lamborghini.
Rivals
Same body, same money, other badges — tap any card to flip.
The Celica XX, Japan's name for the A60 Supra, introduced the world's first in-car navigation computer.
The CTR Anniversary looks like a 911 but Ruf built its carbon monocoque from scratch, no Porsche body underneath.
The 228's coupe styling hides a sedan underneath: Maserati stretched it onto the longer four-door Biturbo chassis to make room for its biggest V6, which is literally where the name comes from — 2-door, 2.8 litre.
Switching to fuel injection let this V8 finally shed its trademark bonnet bulge — and only 405 of these flat-hooded Series 5 cars were built before the whole model retired in 1989.
Japanese buyers got a secret weapon in their MX-6 — the JDM-only KL-ZE V6 made about 40 more horsepower than the engine sold in the exact same car in North America.
An American tuner, Callaway Cars, built twin-turbo conversions of the GTV6 that boosted its V6 by fifty percent to 230 hp — turning Alfa's grand tourer into something far quicker than the factory ever intended.
