The 928 was the model Porsche intended to use as a replacement for the 911, but thankfully the Porsche 911 is still here with us today. Anyway, the 928 is not the best of Porsches, but it's still a decent car; unlike the 911, it is mid-engine and powered by a naturally aspirated V8 that makes anywhere from 229 to 326 HP. I believe it accelerates from 0-60 mph in the 7-second range, similar to the Scion FR-S/Toyota GT86/Subaru BRZ. Its interior is like that of a typical car from the '80s (except it may not have a ton of plastic and other cheap materials): bland and somewhat simplistic. The 928 also has many buttons in the dashboard and center console, just like every other Porsche. Right now, a used 928 in excellent condition has an estimated value of less than $20k. I think its value may climb years later. Overall, the Porsche 928 is a cool car, but it doesn't have the guts to be a worthy 911 successor (if it actually replaced the 911).
