It was a car no one wanted then and it's still terrible.

The 1987 Porsche 928 S4 is probably a car Porsche would be happy to forget about. Engineered to corner the American market for high-price, high-performance German sports cars, it miserably failed to put numbers on the board in a year where the newest Corvette was setting world records for production...
