The 968 was mainly a restyled evolution of the 944, introduced in 1991, with design links visible to its predecessor. Design work was done by Harm Lagaay who had previously penned the 944 and 928 The front of the car largely resembled the top-of-the line 928, sharing its exposed pop-up headlamps and the integrated front bumper This frontal design would eventually appear on the 911 (993) two years later. While the exterior of the car was rounded and smoothed, the interior was largely unchanged and mostly shared with the preceding 944 S2 with the exception of switches and control knobs
From 1993 through 1995, Porsche offered a lighter-weight Club Sport version of the 968 Much of the 968's luxury-oriented equipment was removed or taken off the options list; less sound deadening material was used, electrical windows were replaced with crank-driven units, upgraded stereo systems, A/C and sunroof were still optional as on the standard Coupe and Convertible models. In addition, Porsche installed manually adjustable lightweight Recaro racing seats rather than the standard power-operated leather buckets (also manufactured by Recaro), a revised suspension system optimized and lowered by 20 mm for possible track use, 17-inch wheels. The 4-spoke airbag steering wheel was replaced with a thicker-rimmed 3-spoke steering wheel with no airbag, heated washer jets were replaced with non heated, vanity covers in the engine bay were deleted, as was the rear wiper. The Club Sport has no rear seats, unlike the 2+2 Coupe. Club Sports were only available in Grand Prix White, black, Speed yellow, Guards red, Riviera blue or Maritime blue. Seat backs were colour-coded to the body. Club Sport decals were standard in either black, red or white but there was a 'delete' option.

Designed by Wolfgang Mobius under the guidance of Anatole Lapine was mainly galvanized steel, but the doors, front wing, front fenders, and hood were made of aluminium in order to make the car lighter. It had a substantial luggage area accessed via a large hatchback. The new polyurethane elastic bumpers were integrated into the nose and tail and covered in body-coloured plastic The 928 was originally intended to replace the 911, with a wider appeal and more of a Grand Tourer than out and out sports car. The 928 is also the companies first mass produced car to be powered by a V8 engine. During the cars 17 year span (1978-95) it evolved considerably and has been powered by V8 engines of 4.5, 4.7 5.0 and 5.4ltrs.
The 928 S4 variant debuted in the second half of 1986 as a 1987 model, an updated version of the 5.0 L V8 for all markets producing 316bhp (320PS) sporting a new single-disc clutch in manual transmission cars, larger torque converter in cars equipped with automatic transmission. Styling updates gave the car a cleaner, sleeker look.. Differences between European and North American market cars were reduced, with the only major differences being instrumentation in either kilometers or miles, lighting, front and rear bumper shocks, and the availability of catalytic converters in many other markets.
