1985 Porsche 928S 5.0L V8 VIN # WP0JB0925FS862131
I have always wanted one of these cars ever since I saw one in the movie Weird Science in 1985. I finally bought one on E-Bay from a guy in Florida after I retired from the Army in 2006. It only took me 21 years but I finally got it. I paid $3,550.00 for it which isn't bad for a car that sold for $50,000.00 in 1985. Buying this car for $50,000.00 in 1985 would have been equivalent to spending $102,000.00 for a car today.
The car was built in Germany of course, but I'm not sure where the car entered the U.S. or where it was located until 1993 when the Autocheck report shows it in Massachusetts until 1996. From 1996 to 1999 it was in New York and from 2000 to 2002 it was in New Jersey. From 2002 until I bought it in 2006 the car was in Florida, now it lives in Louisiana with me. If you have any questions or comments about my 928 or the website, my email address is [email protected].
