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. 🇨🇦
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 TH-cam series restoring mine.
Porsches have a real following for the 928 here in Denver. Quite frankly, I have never been in one. Just never had an opportunity, but I know they are fast! Congrats. Heidi
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.
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”
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.
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..
I've driven a couple of them and always wanted one too... they're muscle cars that can mostly handle, especially compared to cars of the period. Still love them, would love to have one some day too.
I would spend $36,000 on this car in a heartbeat. This remains the Porsche of my dreams ever since Risky Business. In fact, I screamed out in horror at the movie theater when the car plunged into the pond.
Nick, you Kiwi bastard! That's one sweet 928, Always loved that car starting with the last-series 944 S2's. Hope you'll have many safe miles with her and keep her safe 'n running!
I was in love with this car in 1986 but I was just out of high school,impossible to afford back then they were $50k,hoping one day I can find one in good shape.
Hey buddy, I watched a 3 minute advert on earwax removal IN FULL because I like you and you'll need the money to pay the bills on this one. Was looking forward to this. The low mileage is weird considering overall condition. Does it have a full history? the manual thing though is SUCH a plus. Makes it a completely different car to drive.
Owned a 82 and 89s4. Relays, vacuum lines, A/C/ cooling fans/ were the main gremlins. Rennlist's forum and 928 international will be your best friends soon.
This is so exciting! The 928 is my absolute fav car. I’d own one, but I’ve done my homework on them and it isn’t pretty from a financial perspective. BUT, since you said it’s temporary, why not live the 80’s dream 😎
Wow! Now that’s cool. In 1986 I purchased a white Peugeot 205GTi which was a fabulous car, a 1600cc engine with ..... drum roll ... 115bhp! So yes, 300bhp was a big deal back then. Enjoy it Nic!
I had an almost exact sister to that! Amazing! A 1983 one. Just a few differences : yours has the super air conditioning in the back, the nice looking speakers instead of the uglier grille mine had, and your interior is slightly more orangey; also, mine had the 1 inch smaller phone dial rims. Well, obviously the plate carrier bumpers that we didn't have here in Europe. That's one of the best specced cars around! Manual, dark green, open roof. Hold on to it, if you have the chance; you will always be envied. I had to sell mine for various reasons, but I miss it, sometimes.
Oh puhlease Nick! That condom fell out of your back pocket when you sat down...the same UNUSED one you've been carrying around for almost thirty years. 😜
Yep. If you look closely at his naked videos (plural), you'd notice that there is a ring mark on his left cheek. Note: A friend of mine told me that. Why would I zoom in on his naked vids?
Snicker...Remember when my dad got hold of my wallet and my trusty Trojan was presented with the line-“You don’t have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of”...Technicality Vern. Lol
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.
OMG! Congradulations! I LOVE the 928! I Graduated from high school in 1983... Risky Business... Weird Science... That was my fantasy car! Front end V8 and rear drive... All I got was a 1985 Pontiac Trans Am... Porsche... there is no substitute!
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.
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!
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
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!
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.
That’s truly been a dream car of mine for about 15 years now. I almost pulled the trigger on an auto last year, before coming to my senses and getting a Tesla. But I’d LOVE something like this. Let me know when you’re done with it.
Love the color and interior. Very unique. After driving both a few autos and one manual (and as a manual fan), I'd still have to say on the 928s its a bit of a "jump ball". The 928 didn't get very good manual trans. Funky layout and sort of clunky... Still a beautiful car Nick- those pop-up headlights own me.
Why does Porsche no longer offer their cars in the dark green colors--they are classic?? Thanks for taking us down memory lane Nick! Cool car and great video. Love your enthusiasm; it is infectious. Excited to see it after detailing.
Congratulations Nick! The 928S was a beautiful car and not appreciated as it should have been. Only minus it eats tires and brakes like none others. I made 100.000 km on mine in the late 80' early 90'
Welcome to the 928 world. These awesome cars are going up in value slowly. I’ve had my 84 for ten years. Find a mechanic who knows these fantastic cars inside out and you’ll love the experience. So over engineered it’s amazing. 🇦🇺🙃
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.
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
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!
Nice! I bought a 1986.5 2 years ago...2 owner, similar mileage...lots of deferred maintenance. I’ve just sorted out now. That head unit may be “ugly” but it’s one of the better single din units out there. It works with waze, had audio application for tuning the stereo, Bluetooth, etc...and the clamp holds your phone...you can pop the faceplate off and tuck it away...substance over style. Mine will probably be sold at auction when I die. Get Roger at 928Rus on speed dial. Join the forums on rennlist (all the answers are there friend!!!) and Facebook. They are great cars. Good luck with your ownership experience.
Welcome to the family! That's a great looking spec to be sure. Is your car an 86.5 model as that had some of the features of the S4 brought over like the larger brakes. They are a blast to drive and finding one with such low mileage is indeed rare. Also, I want that head unit for my car.
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.
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 🤙
If Nick ever needs to take the chicken out of the oven, take that to him mom (because she won't have eaten), run outside, hop in his 928, drive to Sheffield, arrive there while the chicken is still warm and his dad is still alive, he will succeed. Because he will have been driving a car that can sit quite happily at 170mph. So as far as I'm concerned, the 928, is alright.
The design still looks unique and modern. Incredible. You have such a cheeky sense of humour. Yes I am Canadian and I spell humour with a U. ;) The correct way....
Really nice! Like that optional extra of the Condom. There was a great episode of wheeler dealers - a UK show - where they restored a 928. I would check it out. Have fun driving it!
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’ll not reveal my thoughts on the monetary prospect of this, but NICK! You’ve gotten yourself a classic Porsche! Wowowowowow🤩🤩🤩 Forget the stone chips. Aluminum doesn’t rust. But get the interior sorted by a specialist. Please! Might want to reupholster the front seat(-s?). Actually I’m off to have a look at an old Porsche of mine today. Who knows...🙏🏻👌🏻❤️🍀
The first time I saw a 928 was in a movie called middle-aged crazies and thought it was the coolest looking car and wanted to get one when I could afford one. You will have to do a comparison between the 911 of the period. And this car to let us know which one is the better car.
My Dad bought a 928s in 1984, and 155mph and 310hp was considered truely bonkers...as 14 year old I was forced to do a stack road trips in the back and I can confirm it had approximately 1.5” for leg room more than his 911SC...but the luxury was the sunvisor for the back of my neck 🤣🤣
Lucky you! You're driving my dream car. I love the unique paint and interior leather color. Please take good care of it. I hope to be able to buy one some day. Thanks.
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!
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
I had a silver manual 928 and loved it, still miss it to this day. Sylvester 'Stallone got it as partial payment for a movie deal, my sister who is a producer bought it off of him and I off of her. Stallone had it modified to European standards with things like built in radar in the front and rear and a few other modifications to the engine. It was used in a few TJ Hooker tv series shows, it was the sound for the 928 in "Risky Business" and can be seen in the driveway in a party scene in a movie called "'Some Kind of Wonderful". I finally sold it to Columbia Studios for a Bill Cosby movie called "Lenard Part 6" where they painted it camo and mounted a tank gun on top. Still the best driving car I ever had, I even had an ETAK navigational system put in which was how we did it long before GPS, lol.
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. 🇨🇦
Nick, great buy on the 928S! I bought a 1984 928S March 30 after sitting for 16 years on blocks and under cover.

I walk past my Huracan and Corvette to get to the 928 on Saturday morning Lotto and paper runs! Great buy! See ny TH-cam series restoring mine.
Even after all these years I still think 928s are beautiful looking cars.
You have the most calm pups! Nice to hear your take on the 928...was thinking of one.....but.....probably not any more.......
Porsches have a real following for the 928 here in Denver. Quite frankly, I have never been in one. Just never had an opportunity, but I know they are fast! Congrats. Heidi
That quirks and features overview was like watching Doug on 6x speed.
doug tries too hard and his humor falls flat 98% of the time... Nick knows who he is and so does the audience
I'd rather watch a quirks and features with Nick instead of Doug any day.
@@fisherh9111 completely agree, I prefer Doug's older style from like 3 years ago, but Nick's style of car presentation over both
That goes to show that Doug's videos are overly long. Nick keeps his videos packed with info without overstretching the run time.
And all the better for it.
I have an 81 manual 928 in charcoal black which looks more like a metallic gray. I love it
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.
1980s coke snorting executives. 😄 It's going to be right at home in southwestern Connecticut.
3:46 ;-/
Where in CT is he? I’m in Danbury/Newtown :)
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.
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”
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.
"It has a rear wiper!" This could be some kind of New Zealand euphemism...
Haha yeah we are known for them
Working pop-up headlights! Thanks for showing the quirks. How cool.
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..
I've driven a couple of them and always wanted one too... they're muscle cars that can mostly handle, especially compared to cars of the period. Still love them, would love to have one some day too.

I was just starting high school in 1986 and the 928 was one a favorite of mine. It still has quirky appeal today...and it's got 8 cylinders.
Nick, you Kiwi bastard!
That's one sweet 928, Always loved that car starting with the last-series 944 S2's.
Hope you'll have many safe miles with her and keep her safe 'n running!

Very rare, manual transmission. Love it. Lucky dog.
Actually always liked the 928. Classic for sure. You didn’t steal it, but price seems fair for a working example, with low miles.
This is so exciting! The 928 is my absolute fav car. I’d own one, but I’ve done my homework on them and it isn’t pretty from a financial perspective. BUT, since you said it’s temporary, why not live the 80’s dream 😎
Pop up lights worth the $$$. Love the 928 Nick. It is like rear wiper was free.
Wow! Now that’s cool. In 1986 I purchased a white Peugeot 205GTi which was a fabulous car, a 1600cc engine with ..... drum roll ... 115bhp! So yes, 300bhp was a big deal back then. Enjoy it Nic!
I had an almost exact sister to that! Amazing! A 1983 one.

What was that movie, Risky business ?

Oh puhlease Nick! That condom fell out of your back pocket when you sat down...the same UNUSED one you've been carrying around for almost thirty years. 😜
That’s a terrible thing to say 🤣🤣🤪🤣
Yep. If you look closely at his naked videos (plural), you'd notice that there is a ring mark on his left cheek.
Note: A friend of mine told me that. Why would I zoom in on his naked vids?
Snicker...Remember when my dad got hold of my wallet and my trusty Trojan was presented with the line-“You don’t have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out of”...Technicality Vern. Lol
We all thought it 😂
Test Drive Scotland yeah obviously I thought it ,but I didn’t bloody well say it did I, anyway I’m sure it’s only a small thing, no big deal 🤣🤣🤪🤣
You got the right year, the 1986.5 - you get the old-school looks with the big 5.0L engine. Only produced them in this spec for half a year
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.
Color combination is in my opinion spot on... It Will shine like a Diamond after some work. 💖
Nice buy Nick. 👍
OMG! Congradulations! I LOVE the 928! I Graduated from high school in 1983... Risky Business... Weird Science... That was my fantasy car! Front end V8 and rear drive... All I got was a 1985 Pontiac Trans Am... Porsche... there is no substitute!
Love the 928 especially with the checkered fabric upholstery, spaceship from a different time
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.
Called it! Congratulations and I'm glad you were able to find such a beautiful example of a manual 928.
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 928s, still a good looking car.
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 was my dream car growing up. I always wanted a silver one!
Nick is mad as box of frogs. Love it
Anyone else think of "Risky Buisness" when they see the 928? That car was so iconic in the movie. 2 thumbs up.
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! 👍😎
Love the color and interior. Very unique. After driving both a few autos and one manual (and as a manual fan), I'd still have to say on the 928s its a bit of a "jump ball".

The u boat commder
Love the film and car
The girl too!
Nice 👍🏾
One of the most underrated Porsches ever! I absolutely love that pop up headlights!!!😍
Congrats Nick. A manual 928 is a sweet ride.
Why does Porsche no longer offer their cars in the dark green colors--they are classic?? Thanks for taking us down memory lane Nick! Cool car and great video. Love your enthusiasm; it is infectious. Excited to see it after detailing.
ScarFace “Al Pacino “ just called he wants his Porsche back .
You don’t want him to ask twice as he carries his little friend.
I’ve had a couple dozen 928’s and they are wonderful, quirky, rewarding cars ❤️
Verrry lovely color combination.
Congrats Nick!
The dark greens are some of my favorite colors on Porsches. Beautiful car nick!
Congratulations Nick! The 928S was a beautiful car and not appreciated as it should have been. Only minus it eats tires and brakes like none others. I made 100.000 km on mine in the late 80' early 90'
I was a fan of the 928 from the moment I saw the 80’s movie Weird Science. I so wanted to have a black 928 with a Kelly LeBroke? passenger seat cover!
It'll be fun to see how this 928 develops. And what kind of stereo head unit you go for.
Welcome to the 928 world. These awesome cars are going up in value slowly. I’ve had my 84 for ten years. Find a mechanic who knows these fantastic cars inside out and you’ll love the experience. So over engineered it’s amazing. 🇦🇺🙃

Man, you got a rare gem there. Congratulations.
Congratulations !! It’s a lot of fun driving an old classic Porsche. I own a 1989 930. Enjoy !!
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.

I love it. This is 1 of the few cars I’ve wanted to buy but never have. I look forward to future videos!
Should be a keeper with that mileage, spec. Thx Nick one of the best ‘tubers on here. Need a road trip next ?

The design still looks unique and modern. Incredible. You have such a cheeky sense of humour. Yes I am Canadian and I spell humour with a U. ;) The correct way....
Really nice! Like that optional extra of the Condom. There was a great episode of wheeler dealers - a UK show - where they restored a 928. I would check it out. Have fun driving it!
Yep..this car was on my wall in the 80's! ❤
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
Love the color! Porsche’s look great in that green
I’ll not reveal my thoughts on the monetary prospect of this, but NICK! You’ve gotten yourself a classic Porsche! Wowowowowow🤩🤩🤩 Forget the stone chips. Aluminum doesn’t rust. But get the interior sorted by a specialist. Please! Might want to reupholster the front seat(-s?). Actually I’m off to have a look at an old Porsche of mine today. Who knows...🙏🏻👌🏻❤️🍀
LoveLoveLove our ‘89 S4. Dove Blue/ Marine Blue. Welcome to the club, Nick!
The first time I saw a 928 was in a movie called middle-aged crazies and thought it was the coolest looking car and wanted to get one when I could afford one. You will have to do a comparison between the 911 of the period. And this car to let us know which one is the better car.
Omg this is fantastic, I can't wait to see more from this series, thank you
My Dad bought a 928s in 1984, and 155mph and 310hp was considered truely bonkers...as 14 year old I was forced to do a stack road trips in the back and I can confirm it had approximately 1.5” for leg room more than his 911SC...but the luxury was the sunvisor for the back of my neck 🤣🤣
Lucky you! You're driving my dream car. I love the unique paint and interior leather color. Please take good care of it. I hope to be able to buy one some day. Thanks.
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!
I love the 928! Such a interesting car with an iconic design. Good choice!
“I’m a double douchebag” caused me to spit out my drink - I love it!
You’re a brave man Nick. Love the vids.
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...
I'm with you. Keep it stock and replace all the missing trims.
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

Great car, I had one for many years. Wish Porsche would make a 928 successor (Panamera Coupe)!
I had a silver manual 928 and loved it, still miss it to this day. Sylvester 'Stallone got it as partial payment for a movie deal, my sister who is a producer bought it off of him and I off of her. Stallone had it modified to European standards with things like built in radar in the front and rear and a few other modifications to the engine.
It was used in a few TJ Hooker tv series shows, it was the sound for the 928 in "Risky Business" and can be seen in the driveway in a party scene in a movie called "'Some Kind of Wonderful". I finally sold it to Columbia Studios for a Bill Cosby movie called "Lenard Part 6" where they painted it camo and mounted a tank gun on top.
Still the best driving car I ever had, I even had an ETAK navigational system put in which was how we did it long before GPS, lol.
I used to have an '86.5 928S. You have one in a dogleg manual transmission- that is the one to get!
congrats on finally getting a green Porsche. I would love to see what the detailer did, once its completed.
