Classic GT Styling
This HW Turbo variant features a deep black body with striking red and black stripe graphics running along the lower flanks.

The silver multi-spoke wheels with chrome trim provide a period-correct finishing touch that complements the black bodywork perfectly.
HW Turbo – 8 of 10
This release holds position 8/10 in the HW Turbo segment series, with collector card number 171/250.

Browse the complete HW Turbo collection to assemble the full 10-car set of forced-induction and high-performance legends.
Real Car Heritage
The Porsche 928 was conceived as a potential successor to the 911, designed to combine supercar performance with grand touring comfort. The 928S variant debuted in 1980 for European markets, but 1983 was the watershed year when the S finally reached North American shores — bringing with it a host of upgrades that transformed the already-capable 928 into a genuine continent-crossing weapon.
For the 1983 model year, the 928S received a larger 4.7-litre all-aluminium V8 (up from 4.5 litres), producing 234 hp at 5,500 rpm and 263 lb-ft of torque at 4,000 rpm in US specification. European models were even more potent, with 300 hp on tap thanks to higher compression and less restrictive emissions equipment. The engine was paired with a 5-speed manual transaxle or an optional 4-speed automatic, delivering power to the rear wheels via Porsche’s trademark transaxle layout for near-perfect 50/50 weight distribution.
Performance was exceptional for the era: 0–60 mph in 6.2 seconds and a top speed of 144 mph for the US manual version. The 928S also received revised aerodynamics including a front chin spoiler and deck-lid spoiler that reduced the drag coefficient from 0.41 to 0.38, plus larger 16-inch wheels, upgraded brakes, and sport-tuned suspension. Inside, leather upholstery, air conditioning, cruise control, and central locking were standard — making the 928S one of the most comprehensively equipped sports cars of its generation.
