The asking price for the first eight is EUR480,000. Deliveries will begin in 2024.
Nardone Automotive unveils its Porsche 928 Restomod, which gives the V8-powered grand touring car retro-modern styling and a significant power boost. The company will build eight Launch Edition examples at a price of EUR480,000, excluding VAT and a donor car. In 2024, the company expects to deliver its first customer orders.
Nardone used a 928 S4 to be its donor vehicle. While the coupe retains its original look, the carbon-fiber body panels are replaced by the modified version. There are subtle styling changes, too. The front fascia has a rectangular driving light and small inlets at the tip of your nose. Although the pop-up headlights still exist, LEDs with exposed carbon-fiber surrounds replace them.
The 928 ride on forged 18 inch wheels. This is an improvement over the original 16-inch diameter. However, they have a similar design. They are wrapped with Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tires.
The V8’s naturally aspirated V8 continues to produce power, but Nardone increases the output to 400 horses (298 kilowatts). The most powerful 928 ever made in America had 350 horsepower (261 kW). This manual has a six speed manual instead of the original five-speed manual. It also features a limited slip differential.
You can also upgrade your mechanical components with new axles, active dampers and upgraded brakes.
Nardone reupholsters 928’s cabin using a mixture of Alcantara and Foglizzo leather. The bottom of the center console features a contrast, brushed metal appearance and a Porsche Classic Management infotainment device. Retrofuturistic dashboard with digital speedometer and pixel display.
The 928 Nardone is currently on display at Milan Design Week. The company will then display it at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
The production of the 928 began in 1977. Porsche considered the V8-powered grand touringer as a possible replacement for the 911. Although Porsche never succeeded in stealing its most iconic creation, the 928 was still available until 1995.
