Before you buy a Porsche, you should learn how to spell Porsche.

Joking aside, there's a number of reasons why I would never buy a 928, or any old vehicle for that matter. Yes, I wanted one too. I think they're beautifully designed vehicles. But the problem with bleeding edge performance and technology is that it tends to not stand the test of time. Most of the 928's that were parked outside for extended periods now have cracked dashes, leather seats are cracked too.

Oil leaks on those old Porsches are super common and insanely expensive to fix. Generally speaking, they're too expensive to own for what they give you.

And they're not exactly fast compared to today's vehicles.

Have you seen the new Porsche 991? Now that's something I'd love to own.
