I'm going to put another 'log' on the fire!! Yes, I fully agree, the e9 is far more BEAUTIFUL than the 928. And, the 928 is a far greater performance car than the e9. I've owned 3 of one and 6 of the other.
Now - a bit of my history, and why I bought my first 928 (I did not like the appearance of the cars when they were introduced) In the late '80's), I had a technical development business relationship with Porsche's Weissach Advanced Engine Development group. A man named Hans Mezger was the head of this group of engineers. Hans is generally regarded as one of the 2 or 3 top European engine designers of the 20th century. He had design responsibility for everything from the original air cooled 6 cylinder for the 911 up through the 12 cylinder 962 of LeMans fame and ultimately the early 2000's GT3 cars. Over the ~2 years of our cooperative program, Hans and I developed a good relationship, and he often asked me to join him for lunch at the Weissach dining room at the conclusion of our technical meetings.
One day, when having lunch with Hans and one of his associates - partially to make conversation, I said "Hans, I've never owned a Porsche and I do not buy new sports cars because they depreciate too fast. IF I were to buy a used Porsche, what should I buy?"
He started to answer, then he and his associate Gerhard broke into a conversation 'auf Deutsche', very little of which I understood. When they concluded, Hans said "it depends". So I asked "depends on what'? Hans said something like: If you want to have a car you can have a lot of fun with driving for short distances on twisty roads, then you should buy a 911SC like I have. But, if you want to travel longer distances at high speeds and be very comfortable and relaxed while driving, you should buy a 928 like Gerhard has. Those are the two best cars Porsche has built.
Gerhard then broke in, saying: "I have a ski chalet in Switzerland which is 250 miles from here. I can get in my car in the morning, drive to the ski chalet in less than 2 hours, and when I arrive I am very relaxed and can put on my skis and have a great time skiing for the rest of the day. IF Hans tries to follow me to the chalet, he will be exhausted when we get there and would need to rest at least until noon".
Hans replied with "Yah Wohl'. Then we went on to different topics.
About 5 years later, my wife and I were financially comfortable enough that I could consider buying a used sports car, and in starting that process I remembered my conversation with Hans and Gerhard. And, I remembered that I had never driven a rear engine car, and perhaps being in my late 50's, I might not want to find out what happens with a rear engine car when you lift the right foot as you are entering a curve a bit too fast. So I focused on and found a nice 5 year old '87 S4, bought it expecting to move to another marque in 2-3 years. But, I liked the performance so much, found the Porsche Club high performance driving program, and never looked back until I sold the '89 S4 track car and the '94 GTS. in 2015. That's when the beauty of the e9 seduced me one more time!! - ha.
