I know Targas are polarizing, some people love them some people don't, but I found it to be a really neat car. Again, it's too nice to take to the track in my opinion so it makes a great nice weather driver, at least that's how I've used it, and being topless without being a Cabrio is the best of both worlds. It always gets compliments and thumbs up as you can imagine and people love the color. If you're not familiar with Amazon green, it sort of transitions between emerald green and blue. Very 1990s and in fantastic condition.
I don't know for sure but I know there were a limited amount of Targas made and most of them were C2's. This one being a C4 with low mileage would probably make it a very rare/collectible car that you can actually enjoy without worrying about racking up mileage.
Anyway, I'm not sure what the actual value would be but I'm guessing somewhere around $50,000 considering most I see online are in the 40s with much higher mileage, paint corrections, etc. I would also be interested in a trade for another 911 or something interesting like a Noble.
Issues with the car:
CD player does not work. Radio works fine, speakers have seen better days but still work for cruising around.
Struts on the frunk are worn out, you'll need to replace them or get a prop. Of course, you're not under it very often.
Steering wheel is off about 1 degree to the left. Not bothersome and I figured it would be best to adjust it next time it is aligned (though the car drives straight as an arrow now).
Oil sender unit - I've never seen oil under the car, but I got it up on a rack this morning at my mechanic's and there was some oil on the muffler/exhaust. He looked around and said his guess is the oil sender unit. It's about a $90 unit, but it would be a few hours in labor to remove muffler. Nothing major, I haven't noticed any drop in oil level.
Seats, particularly driver, shows the cracks which isn't too surprising considering the color.
Please PM me if interested and I will share dozens more photos.

Porsche 964 Carrera 2 cabriolet
The 964 was considered to be 85% new as compared to its predecessor, the Carrera 3.2. The first 964s available in 1989 were all wheel drive equipped "Carrera 4" models; Porsche added the rear wheel drive Carrera 2 variant to the range in 1990. Both variants were available as a coupe, Targa or Cabriolet. The 964 Carrera was the last generation sold with the traditional removable Targa roof until the 2011 991 (993, 996, and 997 versions used instead a complex glass-roof "greenhouse" system). A new naturally aspirated engine called the M64 was used for 964 models, with a flat-6 displacement of 3.6 litres. Porsche substantially revised the suspension, replacing torsion bars with coil springs and shock absorbers.[2] Power steering and ABS brakes were added to the 911 for the first time; both were standard. The exterior bumpers and fog lamps became flush with the car for better aerodynamics. A new electric rear spoiler raised at speeds above 50 mph (80 km/h) and lowered down flush with the rear engine lid at lower speeds. A revised interior featured standard dual airbags beginning in 1990 for all North American production cars. A new automatic climate control system provided improved heating and cooling. Revised instrumentation housed a large set of warning lights that were tied into the car's central warning system, alerting the driver to a possible problem or malfunction.
