Hi guys (and a few gals),

Well, the time has come for me to part with my beloved Targa.

Long story, and it has taken me months to get to this point. Long story short, my husband and I intend to get a dedicated track car. So alas, I am selling my Targa to make way. It's been a great car, and I miss it already. I just got the front turbo bumper, so it's all painted up nicely with not a single rock chip. She looks gorgeous and will make someone VERY happy, as I have been for the past 8 years.

So, if you know anyone looking, please send them my way.

Adrienne,
Say it ain't so! There are so few of us! ... I can feel the hormone balance of the forum shift as I write this ...

Enjoy the track car!
Best,

Adrienne, where is the car located?

Adrienne

The car is in Austin. Feel free to stop by and give it a look. PM me for details/directions.

Denise - I know! So few of us out there, it's a shame. Such a lovely car, there should be more lovely lady drivers!!

I thought I saw it up around Georgetown the other day ... maybe it's another silver Targa.

I have a friend in Boston who's looking, will pass the info on ... GLWS.

Wow, what a bummer! Truly a nice car this is! Love to see what you end up with in terms of a track car!!

WOW, sorry to hear this. What track cars are you looking into?
I've been a bit MIA around here. Logging back on to see this is a bit stunning.

This is an awesome car folks.

NNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

One step closer to complete sausage fest on here! She's a beauty and the cars not bad either. GLWS Adrienne!

Hi guys...it is with a heavy heart that my Targa is for sale. It's just time, and I really wish that she goes to a great owner like those here on Rennlist.

I've done my Rennlist homework, so I've done most of the fun upgrades to it. I tell ya, the Turbo bumper and MAShaw ducts I recebtly installed are the bomb!! Wow!! So the next owner will be pleased with it.

Adrienne

Oh and for track car, we are thinking spec Miata. Or perhaps a Cayman S. The Miata is hard to beat for price, durability, and the culture. Or should I say cult? We can relate to that here, right?!? If I had the space, I'd keep the Targa. I just got it like I wanted it!!

Good luck, Adrienne. We're gonna miss you on the board.
