Default So I was at Porsche Beachwood today

And this had just come in. Looked amazing in Oak Green and brown with Espresso/Cognac and the houndstooth seat inserts. Eye popping MSRP but kudos to them for ordering it. They also have my Viper Green Targa still for sale.
Ask for Brad.

That price is truly obscene. Capitalism is alive and well. Someone with too much money will buy it.

217.5 actually.

Almosy $78k in options.

I sure hope it’s a ‘keeper.’

I had to look twice at the price. I thought my car had a high MSRP for a Targa 4S. I was wrong, I guess.
But this car sure is pretty. A few PTS Oak Green cars have popped up in the last couple years (hello, Pete) and I can see why. It’s a beautiful green.
The brown top can be a tough match (I had one on my 2013 Mahogany/Espresso Boxster S); I think it works well in this combo.
But don’t listen to me - I chickened out and went Jet Black/Black/black on my latest order.

Not anytime soon, I'll bet. That looks like a custom order that the customer noped out on when they saw it in person.

I agree, that’s not a vehicle one would order for inventory.

Very unusual colors. Not my choice, but I get tired of seeing 911s with the same basic black interiors. Just doesn't work for me. I think interesting color combinations really make the car. Of course, just my opinion!

Ouch! One of the least attractive 911s I've ever seen.

lmao. I’m thinking someone with just enough money.

That car is gorgeous.

I thought mine was painful. This one is going to give me nightmares.

WOW, that is gorgeous............They surely wouldn't have ordered that for inventory, would they?..........I bought my GTS from Steven Y. at Beachwood, very happy with the transaction.

Oak Green is a beautiful color. There is a Carrera GT that Porsche Classic recently restored in Oak Green. I was surprised by how much I like this color.

That brown top is bad enough, but the houndstooth inserts with browns is obscene. Someone is going to be getting a Targa 4 GTS at an obscene discount, that they will never be able to sell. Not sure who wins here, likely nobody.

I like the green but I think it would look better with black top and black targa bar.

They say new cars depreciate after you drive it off the lot. With all those options tacked on, I'd say this car started depreciating when it go off the boat. GLWS!
