The very FIRST Porsche 928

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

We traveled to Connecticut to see the very first Porsche ever produced. #001.
Now owned byAndrew Phinney we spent an afternoon drinking coffee, learning about the car the owner, and the amazing countryside as the leaves turn.
Steve Jobs owned a 928
Stanley Kubrick owned a 928
This was not a car for the masses. It was special.
A truly under appreciated and overlooked masterpiece of design.
A remastered edit from an earlier commission by Christophorous and 911 Magazine.

    My grandfather and I were walking in front of Hotel Gellért in Budapest, Hungary in '78 or '79. Klaus Maria Brandauer, the famous german actor, stepped out of a brand new, brown 928. The car looked like a spaceship.

    I feel your love for the 928. I have three, only to be eclipsed by an incredible friend who has 21 of them. Enjoy your spaceship friend.

    It been a slow burn with my GTS. Like all of them, mine had been neglected over the years but it’s slowly being brought back to life. What a car it must have been in the day compared with cars of the same era. It still shines bright.

    As a 16 year old in 1977 I saw this car and also a 924 in person for the first time and knew I was a Porsche guy. My first Porsche was a 924 turbo I bought in 1985 ($25 thousand). Then my first brand new 911 I bought in '88. I loved the 928 but never bought one and in 40 years I've had numerous Porsches and have 5 now. A couple of years ago I found an '89 GT with 16 thousand miles on it and had to buy it ($90 thousand). Totally mint, it's like the only owner bought it and parked it and waited for me to come along and buy it.

    When I was a teenager the Lamborghini Murrieta was my dream car but when I saw the 928 it reminded me of that dream and I placed a bid on the ebay auction for a used 1986 32valve 5speed in 1999 I was actually high when I placed the bid😂 still own it and don't regret it.

    I've watched your videos and just like you I have always admired the 928. But to me, being a 90's kid I think the GTS is the pinnacle. Any reason you're not that interested in newer 928's? Is it just this original bodystyle that ticks your boxes? I love the early cars as well but personally I think the GTS perfect the looks. Cheers. This number #1 is really something.
