Auto Classica has a wine-red Targa for sale, but i dont thrust the company enough to buy one from them.

The list is former pcars...I have almost tryed them all by now...........964 C4 will always be the favorite!!
Since I´m 50 years old now....a Targa will suit an old man!

I agree, don't trust them at all... They also had a blue Targa with gray interior a while ago, it looked just like yours, thats why i asked.

Anyway, nice car! I love the 993 Targa!

-and I just hate those wheels, I have always done it....was the reason I dident bought a Targa before !!
I got two sets btw with the car, both in perfect condition. I have to sell 1 set, and save the other for next buyer off my car who might want a original car. Right now I´m looking for other wheels for my Targa. I have always been a Original freak, and I can´t tell why I hate the Targa wheels so mutch....just do it

Now the Iris Blue is looking like Iris Blue! It's an amazing paint color .. changes with the light. So, last year I saw this Targa for sale with SSR wheels on it and I thought it really looked like a nice re-design on the original Targa wheel in 18":

I think they would look too 'light' on a Coupe but they work with the Targa I think... not cheap, but a really well made and light 3 piece forged wheel

Very nice Targa, Iris Blue looks great!

Wheels? I vote for 18" hollow spoke/"Technology" (turbo twists) wheels. You don't see them often on Targas.
