How many purists?

No affiliation. I jog past his house every day, never talked to him.

N-

Confused about this listing.

If a 1982 and not a Competition Package 82, it didn't come with the S spoilers. So the "spoiler delete" doesn't make sense.

"Last year of the 928"? Meaning last year before it became a S?

"2+ condition vehicle"? Meaning a 2 + 2 seat configuration vehicle?

I didn't even read the ad Rick... It is plain and simple a regular '82 car. PERIOD. 2+ may refer to the actual condition of the car cosmetically with a 1 being a like new or fully restored car...perhaps... I doubt they mean 2+2 in that context. "last year of the 928" MUST refer to the fact that all 928's AFTER '82 were 928S's and then S4's and then GTS's, so technically they are not wrong... LOL!

OK-

Well, I have run past this guys house for the past two years that he has had this car for sale, and have never actually looked at it up close. Why? Because I KNOW myself, and I don't want it to follow me home that's why! I have too many projects and not enough garage/driveway space as it is!

From what I can tell about the car, it is in VERY good shape. I do NOT know the seller. I've never driven the car, but it appears to be in perfect condition, with no paint issues whatsoever. I was of the opinion [perhaps wrong] that Porsche sold ALL the US model 928's starting in 1982 with the "S" spoilers. If you wanted a "pure" 928 you could have it, Porsche simply had an option code for the spoiler delete. I have never seen a 928 later than 1981 without all the spoilers. Again, I could be wrong.

N!

Thought about this a few minutes later-

The person that owns this car seems to run his "dealership" out of his house in a wealthy neighborhood in Fort Lauderdale. His neighbor kitty-corner across the street and down one is none other than Chuck Panozzo, who was the bass guitarist from the '80's metal group Styx. '80's car....'80's singer. One stop shopping!
