new 911 targa

[BIGJake111]

what do you think of the new 911 Targa?

I love it. Open top when you want it . Hard top coupe when you don't. Balisimo bile

Jury's out on this one...I like the retro concept, but the back just looks too bloated to my eyes. Must have been the same design team as the Panamera.

Huge looking grand touring car, but not bad.

I'll certainly take a Targa over the bath tub with big butt a.ka. 991 Cabriolet.

Watching the conversion videos I think it's clear that the best design would be to keep the support and loose the bubble.. Mid conversion looks way too sexy and Paul walker killer reminiscent

911's look best by far in Coupe form. IMO the targas were ugly in the 70's and 80's, this one isn't much better either. They simply butcher the iconic 911 silhouette. Porsche should leave the top down motoring to the Boxster, it does it best.

The only Targas I ever like we're the first ones with the fold down rear window.

I am a Targa fan! I would love to own one. But I agree the first softw windows are my favorite!

They need to put a wing on the back.

An late-model 80's Carrera Widebody Targa is by far a favorite look of mine. Its busy, but somehow it all balances out nicely highlighting some of the period bests for those 911s. Make that a '89 Turbo Targa with Whale Tale and I'd consider it perfect.

With all that said, I'm not a fan of the new targa. Look at the wheel well size, then look at the glass window height. The proportions are too skewed.

I agree fully with both statements. A wing on the back and that function would be fantastic. Quite frankly I was left in awe of what they did deliver.

That is sofa king awesome!! You gotta be nuts to pass on this for a Cabriolet!

[Porsche9]

Never was a fan and this one isn't changing my mind.

On a side note, the building is the Calatrava extension to the Milwaukee Art Museum.

I think the hoop would look better black.

+1 I think they should offer it in choice of color. Black would look nice. I'm not sure the brushed aluminum works with all main car paint colors.

What kind of weight has this added?
