My 928 S-4 is really frustrating me lately. I love it, but I am starting to hate it too. This past winter I installed a powder coated intake manifold because the old one was looking shabby. When I got the car out I noticed unpleasant changes. It idled a little roughly and it slammed into…
Last month a frustrated 928 owner was considering selling his Porsche since he could not count on it.
