This is the car the world was waiting for - the 5.0 liter 32-valve 928 Series 4. Boasting 316HP, redesigned front and rear fascia’s (it takes a very sharp eye to see the rear section was elongated slightly to improve airflow) , as well as updated interior trim, the 928 S4 was the fastest 928 yet. Numerous other aerodynamic subtilizes were employed to lower the body's coefficient of drag - the front spoiler was redesigned to allow air to pass smoothly under the car with the aid of a new aero belly pan; a set of grill flaps opened and closed depending upon speed and drive line temp. Radiator cooling was serviced by a dual, infinitely adjustable electric fan set. Porsche created controversy again with the S4's foldable matte-black rear wing spoiler. On later cars the spoiler was fixed in place. Astute observers will note the S4 features wider rear rims than before measuring 16 x 8.

The S4 drive line was upgraded with a larger-diameter single disc clutch replacing the sometimes-problematic twin-disc unit of the 928 and 928 S. The 928 S4 also featured upgraded brakes using four-piston Brembo calipers, even larger rotors and pads, as well as ABS. One ride in an S4 and you'll see the need for such massive stoppers!

As testament to the S4's super car status, Al Holbert set two FIA world land speed records of 171+mph in a stock, catalytic converter equipped 928 at Bonneville - the same car which could be bought at any Porsche authorized dealer!

The S4 is an excellent starting point for the serious 928 enthusiast - 32v big HP engine, matching S4 'big-brakes', ABS, etc. The original list price of over $60k+ this car is a great value in today’s marketplace.
