Porsche 928 S

Das Fahrzeug im Detail

The introduction of the Porsche 928 S in 1978 left the public confused, intended to replace the legendary 911. This complete 911 overhaul included a bulky V8 engine at the front, then suddenly no need to add extra weight in the front bumpers.

One of the striking features of the 928 is its exceptional weight distribution. The 928’s transmission is rear-mounted for better weight distribution, as is the transaxle. This features distinctive features of the 928: the well-known Weissach axle. This is the rear axle that gets its name from Porsche’s R&D center. The result creates solid biting grip and stability in cornering. This makes the 928 S a mid-corner killer that allows you to accelerate briskly with plenty of grip. Fun fact: The Weissach axle is a precursor to today’s active steering. Porsche never ceases to amaze us.

Above all, let’s not forget its looks. With its Porsche design and 80s lines, the 928 S is a real eye-catcher of its time.
