Just sold my 928 for $125 :(

Here's one last shot of me with my "speed" yellow 928... it was one of my favorite vehicles of all time. Not that fast, but it sure could move a lot of weight effortlessly!

It was all-original too. Well, I did have the hydraulics rebuilt once, but replacement parts were straight from the factory.

The only upside is that I sold it for $25 more than I paid for it fifteen years ago

Thanks for the chuckle, Randall. I'll admit to getting got and doing a "Who-What-When-Why" when I saw your name and "928".
:dance: Thought you were holding out on us...

It looks more comfortable than a 911 for long trips...

I was gonna respray it a couple of years ago and then realized it would destroy the value of the vehicle, so I left it with the original paint and the "patina" that comes with use

Its also nice that it doesn't have the "chick car" stigma that the Boxster does.

Manolo, you are so right! Well, unless she was from Alaska... where men are men and the women are too.

Very funny. You got my attention. I am looking for a nice low priced 928. However, I'd like mine to say Porsche on it.
