In 1986, I was visiting the UK with my girlfriend (Claire). We walked by a dealership in Folkestone that had a 928 on display through the glass. I went in like a excited little kid (19) and sat in it. I loved that car. I still have a photo of that experience. 🇨🇦

Even after all these years I still think 928s are beautiful looking cars.

Congratulations. One of the coolest Porsche’s, and something a bit different. Enjoy!

A 928 ! My branch manager drove a 928 back in late 80’s when I was a stockbroker in Sacramento . Back then it was quite the car, front V8 non air cooled Porsche ! Who ever expected that ? I knew another guy back then that had a 911 but traded it in for a 928 because he thought he was settled down now & a 911 made the impression with clients that he was too sporty . Reminds me of the period in my life Nick when life was carefree and seems like it was just yesterday. Thanks for the memories Nick, reminds me of the song “When I Was Young”

Called it! Congratulations and I'm glad you were able to find such a beautiful example of a manual 928.

Love the 928s, still a good looking car.

One of the most underrated Porsches ever! I absolutely love that pop up headlights!!!😍

Give it some love, make it a rolling restauration and, please, keep it, Nick!

The 928 was my dream car growing up. I always wanted a silver one!

I’ve always loved the design of the 928. It was supposed to replace the 911 but turns out Porsche enthusiasts are a little resistant to change.

Love the 928 especially with the checkered fabric upholstery, spaceship from a different time

Congrats!! My Dad had a 928 (with manual) which was brought into the USA from Germany and it was my favorite Porsche. We had a 911SC and 911 and 912 over the years but I loved the 928. Enjoy it! It handles really well by the way

In all seriousness, this takes me back to my all-time, eighth grade crush in glorious 1986. My crush's dad had the same 928 as this, in black. It was the neatest thing I'd ever seen. I kept imagining my crush as Jake, from Sixteen Candles, hopping out each morning before class. I've never forgotten that car.

Nice car!! This was one of my favorite cars growing up in the 80’s, especially after the movie Risky Business and later Scarface. Love the dealership scene. “And get me a phone with one of those scramblers!”

Love it man! My dad had a black 86 928 when new. He passed away a couple years after that.. always wanted to pick one up, but the maintenance cost on the cheaper basket case ones has always kept me away. It was the car that inspired me to be a car designer!

The 928 is my favorite Porsche-model. Congratulations Nick, and good luck with the plans you have for it. I'm certainly looking forward to following along.

Awesome purchase Nick! Being an 80s kid I always loved this model and test drove one years ago but couldnt find a manual. Love the spec of green with the caramel interior. I'm so jealous.

I’ve had a couple dozen 928’s and they are wonderful, quirky, rewarding cars ❤️

ScarFace “Al Pacino “ just called he wants his Porsche back . You don’t want him to ask twice as he carries his little friend.

Congratulations Nick! That’s a great buy and a fun car to own. It was one of my dream cars when i was a kid along with the Alpina B5 Biturbo of the era 🤙

The dark greens are some of my favorite colors on Porsches. Beautiful car nick!

You’re a brave man Nick. Love the vids.

This dude seems so genuinely happy with his Porsche you cannot but give the video a like

Hey Nick! Love the purchase I’ve been dailying my 1986.5 928s for almost 2 years now! She’s Prussian Blue with the automatic box. Luckily like you I was able to get mine with 32k on the clock and I’ve put well over 15k miles on it myself :) She doesn’t skip a beat and I hope yours does as well and honestly couldn’t recommend these cars more

Nick, great buy on the 928S! I bought a 1984 928S March 30 after sitting for 16 years on blocks and under cover. I have been detailing it the last 3 months and just got the a/c charged and now ready for road trips! Always wanted one and pulled the trigger. I walk past my Huracan and Corvette to get to the 928 on Saturday morning Lotto and paper runs! Great buy! See ny KZread series restoring mine.

Love the color! Porsche’s look great in that green

I haven’t even watched the video yet, but I am chuffed to mint balls! I couldn’t be more excited that you’ve got a 928. I love them and can’t wait to see Nick Murray videos about one of these wonderful machines. They’ve even got sun visors in the back!

In the early noughties I used to see a midnight blue 928 GTS parked on the street in a smart area of London. It just looked so F-ing cool and it kickstarted my love for these cars. One day, one day.

Oh, Nick. You've bought the most beautiful car ever made. That's what I thought back in 1986 and I'm quite possibly still right. I was, and continue to be, obsessed with the 1983-1986 Porsche 928 S. I lusted after that car. I can't believe you found one with a manual transmission-they're so rare. My favorite color interior from that time is the color leather you have (which was a special order-I can't remember the name though I want to say it might be "Champagne") or the light beige along with Prussian Blue paint (which was also a special order). I remember that a local dealer would take the wheels you have, chrome them-yes CHROME them, and paint the crests in the center-WOW! At the time, the car was in high demand here in Silicon Valley, so the dealer slapped on a second sticker in the window that read, "Additional Dealer Markup: $5,000", At the time, the cars were going for around $50,000 before the dealer's price gouging, Thank you for rescuing that pretty lady and getting her dolled up. Please make sure she goes to a good and appreciative home when it comes time to say goodbye. You're living my dream-have lots of fun!

Very cool, Nick! I'm a fan of the 928 so I look forward to seeing how this plays out for you. I hope you enjoy it!

Excellent choice ya crazy kiwi! It’s looks as if it smells inside 😂😂😂

Man congrats this thing is beautiful! Condition, color combo, everything! Around 2012 my dad had a beige 85.5' 928s manual that was a bit of project. Learned to drive stick in that car, was able to borrow it for the night driving to and from high school prom. Hope to have a 928 in similar condition to yours one day. Seeing this is so cool, many many fond memories in this car.

“I’m a double douchebag” caused me to spit out my drink - I love it!

A timeless design even after 43 years . BAUHAUS style.

Love it welcome to the club. I own a ‘87 928 S4 and love it - gets looks all the time I take it out. Rides sporty soft. And good V-8 power sound. Looking forward to subsequent reviews

I love it! I think the 928 was the first Porsche that I took notice of when I was very young - it just looked so different from other cars. I had a little gold Matchbox car that the doors opened and I remember it being one of my favorites.

Working pop-up headlights! Thanks for showing the quirks. How cool.

Very cool car nick, I drove a 928 in the 80s before I drove my first 911 and fell in love, great experience for you.

LoveLoveLove our ‘89 S4. Dove Blue/ Marine Blue. Welcome to the club, Nick!

Super cool nick. I wasn't even close to being alive when these were new but do appreciate them as kind of an odd model in the otherwise 911 filled history of Porsche. Enjoy!

Great idea, I look forward to seeing more of its time with you

Pop up lights worth the $$$. Love the 928 Nick. It is like rear wiper was free.

$36K for a 86! That is a lot of money, Nick.

"Who's the U-boat commender?" (Risky Business). Great car, I had one for many years. Wish Porsche would make a 928 successor (Panamera Coupe)!

Well done that man. Great car I had an S4 for 8 years in the bush in WA. FANTASTIC CAR

Very cool Nick! Congrats! The 928 market seems crazier than ever if you bought it right. Love the color combo and this ride will have me start watching your channel again. Tired of newer cars!

Congrats Nick. A manual 928 is a sweet ride.

Great choice, one of the most beautiful cars ever made.

Verrry lovely color combination. Congrats Nick!

I love the 928! Such a interesting car with an iconic design. Good choice!

I have an 81 manual 928 in charcoal black which looks more like a metallic gray. I love it

Brilliant car Nick - lovely engine too and Car of the Year when launched!

Looking forward to future videos of the new acquisition! Congrats.

Always loved 928s. Could've bought one of several back in the 90s for less than £5k..I will be definitely looking into buying one in the not too distant future..

Congrats, Nick!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it! I love 928's. I am considering a 928 or 944 as my next Porsche.

One of my favorite vids of yours. Your passion comes through. I'm not so sure you will be giving up this MANUAL. Dammit, I'm on auto trader now. :-)

Congrats Nick! If it makes you happy, that's all that matters!

I had a Corgi version of one of these in a sort of bronze colour as a kid in the early 80s and dreamed of owning one, so I completely get why you purchased one.

You done good, Nick, and Tui and Smudge agree. One of my favorite cars and the best GT of its era. Finally getting the respect it deserves; however, your buying one could end that...

Didn't see that one coming! Really nice! An early 928 is on my own to do list! Pre facelift rear lights are much nicer. Look forward to seeing this little project develop. Congrats, Cowan

Cool project. I'm looking forward to following this progress

Well done Nick! looking forward to see some videos!

I love this channel, this guys makes good videos

Love the green and tan. Needs to be driven wearing 80's clothes or hasselhoff style, sunglasses and chest hair!

Love it Nick! You are a witty entertainer!

I don't know if it was seeing Risky Business as a youth or what...but the 928 was the Porsche I always wanted. Good Stuff! 👍😎

What a cool car! and the color is awesome too. I hope you’ll enjoy it

So happy for you Nick!

A great project! I often get tempted by a 928. Enjoy 😊

Congrats - one of the best ever!

You kept me on my toes waiting for an exhaust note! But now I feel like acquiring a Durex product...what just happened.

With the problems you’ve had with new Porsches, one can only imagine how much fun this car would be.
