Is the Porsche 928 a front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive?

porsche


I would have thought it would be rwd but when I was looking at specs on various sites, some sites said front and some said rear. What’s the deal? Can anyone give a definitive answer? (Please provide something to back it up, if you can.)

Thanks!
–Ok, thanks to you guys for answering!
Yeah, I also thought it would be kind of ridiculous to have a Porsche with fwd, almost as ridiculous as a Porsche SUV… oh wait.
Anyway that’s good news, now I’ll definitely look into getting one.

    rear wheel drive. I’ve just had a look in my book on Porche’s, and the 928 had a rear transaxle for even weight distribution, i.e. the gearbox over the rear wheels. Porsche would never make a front wheel drive car!

    Definitely rear wheel drive — better power, control, and handling.

    RWD, Front engine, with the transmission mounted at the back for better weight distribution. No serious sports car is FWD.
