Which one would you pick? Both are extremely clean. I have driven both of these cars which is a 2017 Targa 4S with auto transmissions and like both. Both have somewhat similar options but the major difference is the red top versus black top. Does the red top look out of place or is it just different that others? Both have red interiors so the red top does match that. The mileage difference is also huge. I plan to keep the car for a while. If I chose the red top, I would get a 3rd party warranty which would cost around $4k for 5-years after the factory warranty since this car is not being sold at a Porsche dealership and is not CPO'd. Just trying to pick the best options package and top color. I asked my wife and daughters but they are a mixed bag. Thought I would run it past the Porsche enthusiasts and gurus.... Thanks guys.

Funny, I have been looking at these two cars. I'm going to test drive the Red top this week. I like the one from Porsche Austin because it has lane departure but I really don't like the wheels plus the interior was really banged up. Is there a reason you didn't get either one?
I love my Targa...... I like the Black/Red interior, which I had only Cayenne. I always drive with the top down, so the top color is really not the issue for me
