Being a car guy, and having worked on 928's...
Here's my 2 cents:
A) I would not touch a 928, at any price, that's been screwed with. Those aftermarket wheels are a huge red flag to me. You need to remember that this was one of the fastest and most glamorous european cars of the era. All aluminum body, perfect front to rear balance ratio, and a power to weight ratio that was insane. This is absolute tire smoldering, traffic ticket getting, wrap yourself around a tree at 130mph German engineering at it's finest.
So you have to ask yourself, who purchased this originally, for $80,000 and then, 8 year later, when they were 5 grand, who do you think was buying them.......and how were they being driven.
No car has the potential for having the absolute bag run off it, like a 928. Needless to say, when I see the ganster wheels, I see a huge red flag.
B) As a teenager, and a guy, your chances of affording and surviving ownership of a car like this are on the extreme edge. I doubt you've ever, or will you ever, drive anything with this much power and this much potential. I don't know you, so don't take that the wrong way.....but honestly speaking, do you really think you can drive the speedlimit in a car like this? And honestly, how many traffic tickets do you think you'll get in the next 5 years...if you kept it that long?
C) Affording maintenance, and being able to find an actual skilled Porsche tech who knows how to work on a 928. Servicing Porsches is as expensive, or more so, then a Mercedes. Price a timing belt replacement on this car. You'll be doing that roughly every 5-6 years. Price a real set of tires......every 3 to 4 years. Price the brake job, front and rear, with rotors.
No my friend, get yourself some normal transportion, get into college and graduate with a career on track, and once you have your student loans handled, you'll have plenty of time for a 928 if that's still on your mind.
