Porsche (with Doug DeMuro) · Acquired
- ▶ 1:25:38 David Rosenthal Even more concerning is the nine 28.
- ▶ 1:27:15 David Rosenthal Porsche nine, 28 with the stated intention that this is going to eventually replace the nine, 11.
- ▶ 1:27:29 David Rosenthal But you know, once the nine, 20 eight's on the market and demand dips for the nine, 11, we'll stop making them.
- ▶ 1:27:34 Doug DeMuro Now I want to defend the nine, 28 a little bit here because it was a, this is an important moment in Porsche's history.
- ▶ 1:28:02 Doug DeMuro The crazy thing about the nine 28 in the Porsche world is that it was a front engine V eight
- ▶ 1:29:16 David Rosenthal So the nine 28 comes out in 1978.
- ▶ 1:29:52 David Rosenthal Seems like a good time for fast cars, and indeed it was, including for the nine 28 and the nine 24, succeeded by the nine 44, and still the nine 11 people still wanted them.
- ▶ 1:30:41 Doug DeMuro The nine 28, though I just provided an impassioned defense for it, um, it never felt like the right car to Porsche.
- ▶ 1:31:04 Doug DeMuro And the fact that it was going to get replaced by the nine 28 was this sad thing.
- ▶ 1:32:03 Doug DeMuro I mean, the nine 28 is on sale.
- ▶ 1:34:12 David Rosenthal So they kept making, I think they made the nine 28 until 1995.
- ▶ 1:35:02 David Rosenthal And on the back of, you know, these go-go years and success, they're selling the nine 11, they're selling the nine 20, they're selling a lot of nine 44.
- ▶ 1:36:26 David Rosenthal I think the same is again true here at the end of the eighties, but they've still got the nine 28 and the nine 44 on the market.
- ▶ 1:38:33 Doug DeMuro And the nine-twenty-eight by then was so old that sales were a trickle.
- ▶ 1:38:50 Doug DeMuro And then there was the nine-twenty-eight, which was the front-engine V-eight, like, flagship car.
- ▶ 1:51:39 David Rosenthal He kills the nine 28.
