What does it mean? I'm asking on this forum because I've heard of a Porsche Targa.

BTW is the Porsche Targa just a 911 with a targa roof?

Targas in the 70's and 80's had a lift off roof between the windscreen edge and the roll bar.

In in 96 they bought out a Targa 993 which was different. It had a fixed roof but made of glass, which slides down over the rear window to give a huge great hole !

This design has been continued with the current 996. Check out the Porsche website.

If you want a look at a 993 Targa, check out my homepage at

This is, of course, the glass topped roof that slides back - very nice, too!
