Pics of New Targa 4S

[Perfectlap]

I don't mind retro...as long as it doesn't look like a $15K car that only chicks buy.
Have you ever seen the brochure for a VW bug? It's 100% geared towards a woman buyer, I think there are even flowers on the dash!
The new 911 looks like a higher powereed VW bug sports coupe model.

I'm not sure I could confuse a 993 with a VW bug in the same way I think the 997 and the VW looks similar today. I think someone posted pics of some VW's bugs with Porsche wheels and they didn't even look that out of place. Something is wrong with that...

Yeah...I try not to think about that.

My friend says the gt3 looks exactly like a bug.

Kind of makes me mad. But think of it like this: If bugs didn't exist, would you still think your porsche didn't look good?

the 987 has a tear drop which is somewhat CarreraGT-esque.
THe 911 is just full on round, those lights are like Michael Richards aka Kramer, no matter how hard you try you will always see a lunatic/VW bug.

I know I'm a really bad photographer and can't hold the camera straight but here's some pics I took of it when I picked up my car.







Looks the same as the OP's.


So yeah the top doesn't open that much really...I dunno, that's just for looks. How about how it feels? I think that's more important.

That color on that car spells: S-P-E-E-D-I-N-G T-I-C-K-E-T

I still love it but too pricey for me

[AUDIOGUY]

I love it! Love the wheels and of course the targa. Definately better than the 911 cab!

I think it's a good looking car, but I must agree with Perfectlap, the top is just a big sunroof. Porsche needs to bring back the classic Targa.

Also, I must concur that it looks a lot like a Bug. I was watching onboard track footage of an Enzo. He was coming up on a car and I thought, "what is a bug doing out there." It was a 997...... which promptly got passed.
