5Speed Manual LT1 Power: 1986 Porsche 928

The Porsche 928 was released into the wild in 1977 as the presumed replacement for the aging 911, but the complex mechanical design and less than thrilling driving experience meant it played second fiddle to the tail happy OG Porsche.  Today, prices for the 928 haven’t appreciated nearly in the same psychotic manner as the 911, so you can still pick one up for cheap and power it by an American V8.  Find this 1986 Porsche 928 offered for $15,900 in Charleston, SC via craigslist.
