    V8, Leather, And Hoonage: The '84 Porsche 928S Knows No Other Way

    The Porsche 928 may well be the most expensive car ever to get major TV advertising airplay, with the '84 928 listed at $44,000 (that's about 90 Gs in 2008 dollars). It seems wrong that the car in this ad has an automatic, but we can't argue with the sound of roaring engine and squealing tires. However, the 944 Turbo ad of the same era gets a higher rating on the Hoon-O-Meter.
