In the movie Risky Business, Joel's father owns a Porsche 928. I've always wondered if the 928 in that movie was supposed to be a lemon or just have mechanical problems. In the movie, there are about three scenes I can think of where the 928 appears to have some problems.
- When Joel and his friend Barry take out the 928, the 928 stalls as they are backing out of the garage. Joel has to restart it giving it a lot of gas. Why did it stall?
- When Joel and Lana are confronted by Guido at the restaurant, Joel tries to start the 928, but it doesn't want to start. Finally, it starts after many attempts.
- During the scene where Joel, Lana, and Miles are being car chased by Guido, you see a fresh puddle of oil? left behind when they speed off at the red light.
Were 928's really that problematic?
