In This Segment, Keith And Jay Discuss Why The 1979 Porsche 928 "Risky Business" Car Driven By TOM CRUISE In The Movie Sets A WORLD RECORD Selling For $1.98 Million At The Barrett Jackson Houston Auction. The Reason... The "Tom Cruise" Porsche 928 Was One Of Three Used In The Movie And Considered The "HERO CAR". Tom Cruise Didn't Know How To Drive A Manual Transmission So The Movie's Producer Jon Avnet Taught Him In This Very Car! Behind The Passenger Side Visor You Will Find The Signatures Of Fellow Actors Bronson Pinchot (Barry), Curtis Armstrong (Miles) And Joe Pantoliano (Guido). This Car Bears The VIN 9289201213 And Was Originally Green, Not Gold. The 1979 Porsche 928 Came Equipped With A 4.5-liter V-8 Sending Around 219 HP To The Rear Wheels By The Five Speed Manual Gearbox. That Combo Gives You Enough To Go 0-60 mph in 6.8 Seconds And Gives You A Top Speed Of 143 mph. This Car Was Used To Shoot All Of The Scenes With Tom Driving Including The Famous Chase Scene. After The Shooting Of The Movie, The Car Was Sold But Went Missing. On A Mission To Find The Car, In The Mid 2000's Lewis Johnsen Found And Documented His Search In The Documentary "The Quest For RB928" (Risky Business 928). This Is Why IT SET A RECORD At Auction. Just Think...If The New Owner Can Get Tom Cruise To Sign And Write "Porsche There Is No Substitute" Somewhere In The Car What It Might Add To The Value !!
