You don't see a SY Targa 4S every day. In fact I have never seen one in person. The yellow unicorn. Beautiful car congrats.

Seriously great car. Love me some speed yellow. Too bad my wife used her veto power on a speed yellow car. You got yourself a keeper!

I feel for you. My wife insisted that if I was gonna get a midlife crisis mobile, it had to be in a bright color. I went Guards Red, but Speed Yellow was so close, but finding one with a beige interior & the specs I wanted was a bit too much of a unicorn hunt even for me...T

I'm not a fan of Speed Yellow for myself - but that is a beautiful car and a Targa to boot. Enjoy!!!!

Welcome and it looks great. I'm with you on the PCCBs, not low dust - No dust and no rusty rotor hubs either. If you're doing work on it yourself, make sure to pick-up a couple of these Wheel Mounting Guide Bolts https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/99957107430.html

Remove two opposing lug bolts first and thread these pins in. They allow you to slide the wheel away from the car on the pins so you don't drop one on the PCCB rotor and chip it - that would make for a miserable day. One isn't enough - you need two to prevent the wheel from rotating by accident and hitting the rotor anyway. Don't get the knurled ones that they say are easier to screw in - the knurls will scratch the inside of the wheel bolt holes.
