Near Perfect Interior - Dash is perfect, Door Panels just gorgeous, Rear seats beautiful, Front seats have been redone in fine leather with little use and no visible wear, Leather smells and looks amazing, Freshly wrapped leather wheel. Carpets show use but no rip, tears or funky smells.
Fuchs wheels
Toyo Tires with plenty of tread.
Glass and seals are good.
Targa top has recently been restored.
Clean body - The left rear quarter shows sign of repair. The second owner noted that it had been hit prior to his purchase in '82 Also note that there is a small ding on the left front quarter - see photos and video
Paint - Depending on use it could use a repaint. If you are looking for a fun car to drive that might include sloppy or dusty roads, I would leave it and have fun. Let the outside get dirty and enjoy the amazing drive and superb interior. Otherwise yes it could use paint. Some egg shelling is apparent and the front cowl has rock chips but hood is clean. Not a stretch to say it needs paint but certainly doesn't require it.
Why it doesn't have a engine. This Targa was our clients pride and joy and a car he loved for over thirty years. Last fall the engine suffered catastrophic failure. The #5 valve was sucked clean through the piston causing a massive amount of damage. We sent the engine off to a specialist and our client lost interest in the car due to cost and his age. Hopefully you have a engine or perhaps wrecked your Targa and you have the engine and are looking for a new body to get back on the road.

Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion
Mon, 17 Feb 2014Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?
Revel in the glory of the Porsche 911 engine factory
Fri, Jan 2 2015A flat-six engine pumping away behind the driver defines the Porsche brand for many people, whether they are buying a Boxster, Cayman or 911. If you want to appreciate the sound and fury concentrated in the rear of these German sports cars even more, then take a tour of the company's 911 engine factory in Zuffenhausen, Germany, to see the work that goes into each one. We're long past the days of automotive assembly lines being deafening, dirty affairs, but it's still somewhat shocking to see just how sterile the plant in Zuffenhausen is. Each person wears a matching gray jumpsuit and gloves, and there's not a drop of grease of them. While the components are constantly coming down the line, there doesn't appear to be much of a rush. It's just a slow, steady movement that gives workers time to complete their appointed tasks. At least in this video, the employees don't even seem to talk to each other; the only sound is the hum of the plant or whir of tools. It's transfixing to watch these famous engine slowly come together largely from human hands. News Source: Cars via YouTube Plants/Manufacturing Porsche Technology Performance Videos engine
The 2014 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S brings 50 extra ponies to Detroit
Mon, 14 Jan 2013Porsche has announced a new version of its popular SUV today at the Detroit Auto Show: the 550-horsepower 2014 Cayenne Turbo S.
This newly minted "flagship" of the Cayenne lineup is powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.8-liter V8 engine, and offers 50 hp more than the Cayenne Turbo. Performance figures are impressive for the sleek utility vehicle: 0-60 miles per hour can be dashed off in 4.3 seconds, while maximum speed is rated at 175 mph. The Turbo S also gets dynamic chassis control, torque vectoring and Porsche's Sport Chrono package - all standard equipment.
Visually the Cayenne Turbo S differentiates itself from the lesser models in pretty subtle ways. Gloss black trim decorates the gawping front air intakes, as well as rear-view mirror trim panel. The SUV also wears 21-inch Turbo II wheels, a la the 911 Turbo.
