Now apart from thinking it looks lovely, does anyone know anything about this generation targa?

Is this one too expensive? Anyone add anything?

Porsche Newport have been offering this one about, a friend looked at it last week but said it wasn’t for them.

That doesn’t seem anywhere near as nice for some reason.

It’s a lovely spec and I know that Targa’s have been holding their money, a friend sold his 1 year old car for pretty much what he paid last year, but this looks strong money to me. I’m a manual fan, but not sure it’s the box of choice for most Targa owners. While I’m not wedded to OPC’s, it looks a premium price for a car outside the dealer network. Just my observations.

It’s the interior spec/options and exterior colour which is doing it. I think it’s circa £10k strong or so

Although it wouldn’t be my choice, there’s a lot to like, and can see the appeal.
And, in a world of autos, the relative rarity of the Manual gearbox should make it increasingly desirable.

I’ve actually thought of moving from a 992s to a manual targa. At first glance this example may seem expensive but in decent colour combo targa manuals are rare, hence the price. You can buy a 992 turbo for similar money but I think this is just “more 911”

I think it’s much cooler than a turbo, while also being a very classy spec.

That interior is exceptionally rare, be amazed if he isn't in for a very very long wait.
