Default 85-88 porsche 928S4 or e60?

long story short I lost my car about 2 months ago..........Now Im in the process of getting another car. when I get a car I usually get what I want as long as it has 4 seats that's all that matters......if people have to squeeze Im really not concerned. What does concern me when I get a car is power and handling E60 with sport suspension, active steering is a great handling car but would you go for an older Porsche in place of it?? the 928 has a great engine 8 cylinder 288-300 hp and performance chip gives 30hp not sure of the handling? I would think it would be pretty good but would you say that the handling of an older Porsche can be comparable or better to a newer more advanced E60? is it possible for a car that's lets say 18 years older can have equal handling to a E60 sport? I haven't driven a 928 yet maybe some of you have........any opinions is cool!

Please don't start with the "they not in the same class" or "you cant compare a 4 door to a 2 door" nonsense because the e60 is a very good car and in my mind Im giving the e60 the advantage in handling and performance even though its the bigger car am I wrong for doing that?.......just a fun conversation on what you guys think

The 928 is a great looking car, and has a wonderful engine, but I was never too keen on their handling. They can be finessed, but take more work through the twisties, which is why you don't see too many tracked. An older 911 would be a better fit handling wise IMO, and you should be able to find a nice clean example for what you'd pay for an E60.
