German Camaro: 1983 Porsche 928S
The Porsche 928 was introduced to the world in 1978 as the shape of things to come for Porsche. The sleek-in-the-front and bulbous-in-the-rear design was penned by Wolfgang Möbius and was one of the first cars to offer a polyurethane front bumper that survived the USA 5 mph impact requirements introduced in the mid 1970s. A V8 up front mated to a trans-axle finished the design that was decidedly non-911 and very much a luxury grand tourer. Today the prices for a vintage 911 is through the roof, but a decent running 928 is cheap. Find this 1983 Porsche 928S offered for $4000 in Alvin, TX via craigslist. Tip from SecondMouse.

“Runs but needs work” really means runs but needs trust fund.
Camaro, eh Jefe?
Why not a Firebird?
Can you imagine this 928, painted black, with a GOLD screaming chicken on the hood?
I can.
Der beschissene deutsche Feuervogel.
-Stan (who speaks fluent German, but only to non-German speakers…)
Ohhhh, I like that better. A 928 with a thunderchicken an a turbo 301 swap would NOT be invited to the next lufthegfuliktult show.
-Stan (yeah….)
actually, you need the GERMAN bird from coat of arms… not sure how to attach an image, but here is a link… make a german version of a firebird
