Popping bottles or is it tops. Some 911s are iconic like the speedster...930 slant nose... the carrera 4s and of course the gt3 and Turbo. But the only 911 I want is the targa. Since 1967 the targa was considered a stop gap model....due to the lack of convertible models in the U.S market. Porsche has had success in many races... and most of them become a moniker on 911 models..... The Targa Florio Was a race where Porsche had 7 victories since 1956....and 4 more until 1973. Hence the name 911 targa. The 911 Targa was a rare and expensive model in 1996....it lasted till 1998 and was one of the last air cooled models in 993 guise... its roof operation was epic to say the least....at a touch of a button a large glass roof would retract behind the back glass giving this 911 a distinctive green house amongst other models. The Targa was re released in 2015 with the amazing rear hatch operation that neatly tucks in the top in the middle of the car. The new targa has the Retro stainless steel roll bar something that was missed in the much earlier 993 air cooled models. The 991 targa is equipped with Porsches active engine mounts.... pdk paddle shift gearbox or a rare 7 speed manual.... all targas have all wheel drive wether in base 4 trim or 4s trim. The targa is the only 911 I would personally buy as it has the most charisma in my eyes.... fast.... gorgeous... and a coupe on days where the weather isnt the best....a convertible when the weather is. The targas duality make it an amazing car to own..... and it worth every penny just to pop the top.
