Default 965 Targa ?

I spotted a black 964 wide body Turbo Targa on the way to work this morning.

Anyone here own one?

Are you sure it wasn't a pre-964 with a 964 (conversion) bodykit?

It looks like a 964 wide body Targa but, I didn't think they ever was one.... or perhaps a 964 Targa with flares added????

Good looking motor!

Twin Exhausts, and a 'turbo' badge, but no turbo spoiler to house an intercooler?!! Has some sort of wide cill kit too, and a great stance.

Probably a 964 targa with turbo arches given the auto spoiler? but could be an earlier widebody car with the 964 conversion?!

There were widebody cabrio 964s but I have never heard of widebody Targa 964s. Regardless, if you pay attention to the wheel offsets, you can tell it is not a factory widebody or turbo 964 chassis, too much negative offset to compensate for the added widebody.

Looks pretty and mean though, I like it.

That's what I thought.

Thanks for the info.
