Default Targa Production and Sales Figures?

Where on the web might one go to discover how many 996 Targas have been manfactured and/or sold in any given calendar year or calendar quarter?

2002 = 692
2003 = 450
2004 through June = 71
(These are calendar year figures, not model year, PCNA sales)

Funny thing happened to me today. I parked my 04 Arctic Silver Targa a half a block from my meeting. When I came out a few hours later, I started walking to "my car" and found another 04 Arctic Silver Targa, and realized mine was another 100 feet away. Pretty unusual with such a rare car!

That's the info I was looking for, thanks. Do you have inside access or is there some place I can go occasionally to get updated information?

Also - pretty bizarre occurrance re: your car!

PCNA issues news releases monthly with this info and you should be able to find it by searching the web. Some end up on germancarfans.com but I have seen it on other sites. Also, the numbers above are U.S. sales.

I is a great car and will have its place in history...personally thought it drove heavy,could not see out the the rear window when the top fully retracted and had the fishbowl effect but did have some great street races withit and won them all.....

PCNA issues sales figures on via a monthly press release. You can find it at www.prnewswire.com and then search on "Porsche". They used to show inventory but no longer.
