New member here. Looking to buy a 997 Targa 4 or 4S with a manual transmission. Preference is for a 997.2 (2009-2012) but I will consider a 997.1. Under 50,000 miles. Preferably under 40,000 miles. Will consider most colors.
Previous car ownership includes manual Datsun 280Z, manual Dodge Neon R/T, manual Subaru WRX and currently a manual VW GTI. Looking to step up to a Porsche. If you sell to me you can rest assured that it will go to a good home, be well taken care of and be driven regularly.
I'm still looking! Not many manual 997.2s. that's what I'm leaning towards (over a 997.1) but I haven't seen more than a couple in the last six months...
GLWS(earch)! Once you go Pcar you'll never turn back. Just be sure to do a thorough PPI by an indie shop and check paint thickness to minimize surprises.
2009 Targa 4S in Macadamia Metallic. 27k miiles, PDK non sport chrono.
I called for the price and he said he could do mid forties. If so, this is the best price i've seen on a 997.2 targa 4s. I like the color and wheel combo too.
They just updated the listing. $47,500. That's a damn good price for a low-miles T4S.

yes, I saw that one and it ticks all the boxes except for being manual and that's a deal breaker unfortunately. If I would go with a pdk I'd have many more options. Thanks for passing this on though!
Was warned finding a low mileage manual Targa would be like "finding a unicorn". They're rare and sell quickly.
I would suggest checking all the usual sources in the US (craigslist, autotrader, etc) and look in Canada also. Back when the Canadian dollar was more favorable, the cars were shipped north. Now that USD is back on top, the opposite is happening.
Some of these cars were originally born in the USA and still have all the certs, speedo cluster i miles versus kilometers, etc you'll need or want n the process. One of the Targa's I was looking at was originally purchased in Texas, moved to California and then Canada. You'll save a few shekels on duty too at the border.
