Default 992 Targa

Thought I would start a thread to keep everyone that’s interested updated on the new Targa.

This info has been out there for some time. The 992 Targa looks like it is ready for release at anytime.

Any news on prospective announcement and arrival dates?

Regards,
Mark

For me the hard part will be waiting for the Targa GTS. I just hope they release a non 4wd version, unlike this gen. If they don't, I may wind up in a GTS Cab. I really prefer the RWD.

Unfortunately not that I've heard/seen and I keep a fairly close watch. All signs point towards Turbo/Turbo S or GT3 Variants being the next up.

Early on there was a report (can't remember who but it was a magazine) that said their sources said there would be Targa Turbo variants this time... I give it a 1.9% chance of being true.

Rumors indicate Geneva, especially given that media preview ride-alongs were already done in November. Next up would be the GT3, and rumors say an announcement might be made at Goodwood.

Given GTS test mules are out and about can we at least hope the targa 4S is getting closer?

I like the mismatched rims. Maybe that will become a thing.

What color is that mule? And why is it so darn clean?! I still have 59 more days until I get my C4S, but I'm already thinking about my next one. I assume that's normal....

I like the back ones better, and hopefully the GTS will have a manual option when released: row, row row your Targa, not gently down the road...
