Model History: The Porsche 911 Targa was launched in 1967 in response to a regulatory challenge in the United States. At the time, safety standards threatened convertibles, prompting Porsche to design a model with a fixed stainless steel roll bar. This innovative concept, named 'Targa' after the iconic Targa Florio race in which Porsche had triumphed, offered a compromise between coupé and cabriolet. It was equipped with a removable hardtop and, initially, a plastic rear window that was also removable, later replaced by a glass version. The 911 Targa retained the fundamental characteristics of the 911, such as the rear-mounted flat-six engine. Early versions were powered by a 2. 0-litre engine developing between 110 and 160 bhp, depending on the variant. Combining 2+2 architecture with typical Porsche suspension, it offered precise handling despite the engine's rear-mounted position. The Targa quickly established itself as an icon, distinguished by its unique styling and its link with the world of racing. Even today, the Targa version is a pillar of the 911 range, embodying the innovation and heritage of Porsche for more than five decades.
