I believe the rear wiper option is pretty rare on the Targa. This only the second one I am aware of.
As for the cleanliness of your wheel wells and lower engine (in my best Yosemite Sam voice), I hate you... Looks like this car is headed for the concour competition.

Thank you guys! This car looks way better in person than pictures, the PO was a 78 year old man, he was the second owner, the first owner is now 95 years old spoke to him and he is still sharp, I hope when I turned 95 I will be as sharp as he is, the car had never been pushed to over 60mph in its life, until last night I pushed this puppy to 110mph and the engine started to sound better if you k ow what I mean..

Lol, that reminds me of the time I went to go see a 1988 coupe I wanted to buy, me and the seller came to a agreement on price and on that sat I drove to go see the car, when I got there I started to check the car out and when I got on the floor to see the engine there was a big puddle if oil on the floor so I told the seller, dude this car is leaking some serious oil , he said! All this cars leak oil and if they don't is because they don't have any oil in the engine
