Car Lust–Porsche 928 It is inconceivable to me that the Porsche 928 doesn’t have a more glorious reputation than it does. What was one of the all-time great cars of the 1980s (with some spillover from the 1970s and into the 1990s) is remarkably often regarded as a bloated, fat, ugly failure of a car, somehow barely worthy of the Porsche name.

The 928 had such an embarrassment of ability that it captured the imagination. Considering the standard of its time, it had incredible top speed and high-speed cruising ability; married to its ...

Drive Design Rather than keeping to the famous rear-wheel drive and engine positioning of the 911, it was considered that combining rear-wheel drive with a frontal engine would be the best possible option for ...
