That’s an excellent specification of a Porsche 911 with all the essential spec items or Porsche Sports Exhaust, Sports Chrono Plus, Sports Seats and a few other big op items. I loved hearing the Targa history and the reason for these being so few
I owned a 997.2 Targa 4 for 2.5 years and I would not buy again because it was (top) heavy and when you opened the glass roof you couldnt see out the back due to large lower roof frame.
TBH, Porsche's never really appealed to me, but I am now won over and would now seriously consider this over a big AMG Merc, Audi or Jag (V8's!) as a GT car.
This was the car in nfs hp that I always struggled to win against in the performance series races in nfs hot pursuit 2010 when I was younger and I would grind just to get that car and win all the golds with it 😅
For 2 years now (997.1 targa 4s). I cant find any better 911 (something else is not considered anyway) for less than twice the value of mine. Which I consider being too much of a price gap. So I Will just keep on going and enjoying.

The 2010/11/12 Targa 4 or 4S is a very very rare 997 in 2023 for exactly the reasons you give, fantastic cars.
Thank you 😊
Wow such a collectible car
Agreed it's so rare
The 997 Targa is indeed a rare breed.
A 997.2 T4S PowerKit is the holy grail of 911s. Forget the GT3… It’s a shame Porsche never offered a 997 Targa 4 GTS.
Does that power kit work on 6 speed manual Targa 4s?

How heavy is “heavy”?
It’s heavy 😂
I have a targa 4s wls package x51. Its a wonderful ride. My biggest pride next to my kids :)😅
That’s a beautiful car, hold on it. You won’t lose any money on it

Give it a go and you won’t regret it. Many people end up driving multiple Gen of 911

That’s very interesting in to hear. In the targa version or normal coupe?
The targa version
I have a targa 4s. It is a incredible vehicle
Also rare in 997 so hold on it as long as you can
There's a reason it's rare. Raising the center of gravity for a car with a slightly larger sunroof doesn't make much sense.
For older people…? 😅 I love mine. 😅
Haha, have you had yours long?
