Just poking around

My wife says it's out of the question to get a 928 since we have a 996 TT already, but I can't get this childhood dream car out of my thoughts since seeing one up in Marin.

Seems now is a good time to get a 928 with the economy down. Are prices depressed? What would represent a good value? Are there some years/versions that are lower maintenance than others? Is it possible to get into a base model relatively cheaply?

Thanks in advance!

Yes but be careful, do your homework, the parts can get expensive. I had that problem a few years ago on my 951.

David,

Thanks. I found an active 928 group over on Rennlist. It does seem that these are going for cheap. If I were to buy an enthusiast's car, it sounds like it would be a good deal, but I would still have 1-2k/yr. in maintenance.

I did get to ride in one recently, and it's very plush ride in comparison to a 996TT, although the interior is obviously dated.

If I could sell my 996, I would probably buy a well-sorted 928.

Early.
