Mine is halfway across the Atlantic on the Rcc Asia and a little late to worry about windshield reflections. I liked the red steering look - so I took a leap of faith and took the all red interior with the chalk stitching.

I have a Panamera with a “dipped” beige interior so the dash is beige also and I had to put a dark blue dash cover because the daytime windshield reflections were so annoying.

my salesman said he had never seen the all red “dipped” interior only the black/ red.

I wish I had checked the box for the upgraded stitching - looks more finished on your car.

I am specking a nee base Taycon and this time ordering all the goodies I want and hope to find I over ordered options rather than regretting having not ordered a few options.

TYD says March 5 mine will be at the dealer.

my wife is getting tired of my showing her where the ship is several times a day. She shows me videos of grandchildren and ai show her videos of Targa reviews. I plan on making some videos of grandkids in the Targa.

I am now on the list for a Targa 4S. I am number 20, and the dealer said I might have an allocation next year.

I contacted another dealer and they will bump me up for an early trade, but they valued my C2S $15K under trade-in value. I have another dealer that I’ve worked with before that will let me know next month about an allocation when they get their new ones in. It’s not easy right now, is it?

I would like a Targa, but not going to do a nutty deal to get one. I have a beautiful coupe that I also love, so no worries about riding it out until a fair deal comes along.

Right now, I am on a python green kick. I think that could look awesome on a Targa.

I was lucky to get one of the first Targa's. I took delivery on Jan 2nd, haven't seen any others here is the Phoenix area yet. There was one that came into the dealer a week or so after mine. They are definitely rare, I went from a 991.2 GTS to the Targa 4S and I'm really happy with it.It has exceeded all my expectations. Good luck.

Lol, maybe! But really, I have always had sports cars since my first car at 17 - bought and paid for with my own money. A few years back, I had to have reconstruction surgery on my nose due to skin cancer. My surgeon was excellent and you could never tell, but I was advised to be more careful in the sun. So every time that I went out for a ride, I slathered in greasy sunblock. I became tired of that, so decided to go to a coupe. The last three Porsches have been coupes. I miss the open air weekend drives, and just think the Targa might be a good compromise. My last SA was always heavily advising me against a Targa every time that I came in to order. He said that they are a complete pain - always creaking and having to hunt down issues. I am now wondering if he just couldn’t get Targa allocations easily and maneuvered me. On the last deal he really took advantage of me, so done with that effer. So, let’s see what happens.

Not a 992 and not python, but yes green looks great on Targas!

I don't mind this British racing green color on the 911 in the background.

Viper green on the 991.2 vs. Python green on the 992.

Interesting to see they’ve covered up the interior. I wonder if they already have a cabin redesign set up to make this essentially a 992.2

My Targa allocation for next year might be timed just right...

...unfortunately, I don’t see Homelink buttons on the mirror.
