The 993 and 996 Targas were not offered with the four wheel drive system, due to the high weight of the roof system. It was felt that the heaviest body style (targa) with the heaviest drive system (4WD) would have too significant of an accellerative performance drop over the rest of the C2 and C4 range.

Cheers Dazren,

I guess if they had a sufficiently light-weight roofing system we'd have the best of both worlds...

Simple, the C4 Targa Turbo X50

Oops, I forgot, I think Turbo cabriolets are for celebrity hair stylists.
