Brian,
What size tires are you running? That is a beautiful car.
Thanks,

I was driving mine in the snow, because we normally get an inch or so and then it melts the next day. But a few 100 mile trips to Denver International Airport without a windshield washer motor, non-melting snow, and a few more rust spots that I don't need. To top it all off any collision place will not take it because I "need to take it to a restorations place." Left me a little sad, but I washed it off and placed it in the garage, and I start it up and drove it yesterday because it was 60 degrees out. Today it is supposed to snow so I can't take it out for an evening spin when I get home. Blah. I might tho on Wed and Thurs.

Speaking of which, anyone know a good restoration place for P-cars?

The Targa was the only model I wanted. I like having a choice of driving a coupe or a convert depending on the weather.

I will second that RC. I was happy to actually have somewhat decent weather here today in Seattle. So... the top came off.

Just joined the Targa club! You're right, Targas are the best!

Early 6 Tacoma Targa: Nice ride. I am in Seattle and have an 88 Targa, Nougat paint, and am ready to release it from the garage now, at last.

I will be driving my 87 targa from florida to the tail of the dragon run in two week about 2000 miles round trip hope to be topless most of the time.

Yeah, took the top off both yesterday and today...as I was driving into work today I just could not believe how nice it was. Clear skies, incredible view of Mt. Rainier, sun beading down, cool air flowing into the cab, it was amazing. I cannot wait to leave the office and get back on the road (in about half an hour!). I am very, very, very happy to be a Targa owner.

2nd that emotion........where else can you find a coupe and a cab all rolled into one? the best of both worlds

Thanks jwt996. Maybe we can meet up somewhere when the weather turns. A Mt. Rainier or St. Helens drive???

Yes the targa can be enjoyable, and yes everything will fly out the window when you get her unwound!
