Absolutely stunning! very well executed... Congratulations !!


as you get settled in with all the technology, I would be curious to hear if the MyScreen on the PCM actually stores your speed dials for an extended period of time for you...

Sooooo.........no Lexus? LOL

Sweet Targa. The brown is unique and I am sure will be a conversation starter. Gotta love the smell of all that leather. Looking forward to some more close up shots of the interior work. The rims tie in nice with the car too. Cheers!

Noticed the rear wiper trend continues with the Targa.

I really appreciate the silver + brown combo and think it will age well. Enjoy it in good health

I think the dial colour works well w/ your colour palette and gives this new Targa a vintage 'patina'.

Very unusual color combination. But it grows on you.

Why did it take so long from order date until delivery?

I think PCM is the automotive equivalent of Photoshop. I can do everything I want while only using 1% of the capabilities. Not sure what the "Favorites" list with the satellite radio; is there a way to store favorite satellite channels or is it just if you mark a specific program or song as a favorite? Sometimes my traffic channel shows up there, sometimes it doesn't. I was wondering if it only shows up when it's playing Chicago traffic. At this point, I don't even know what the MyScreen is.

Is it just me, or is Sirius a technology company with awful technology? Every time I get a new car the lengthiest part of the process is transferring satellite radio service. It's ridiculous.

Thanks to all. Will attempt better shots of the interior in the next week or so.

I think it took some time to get a Targa allocation, although ostensibly I had the first one at my dealer. Who knows?

Fantastic car! I'm so glad I ordered those wheels. I love the brown with beige gauges. Enjoy!

Beautiful Targa! Love the color combo and the wheels look interesting. Amazing how a couple of options here and there can completely transform the look of a 911.
