Anyone want a 2014 991 Targa?
Pelicans usually don't buy new(ish) 911s, but it's worth passing along
2014 Carrera C4S Targa, PDK 2,650 miles Was $140K new and over a year wait $129K ![]() ![]() ![]()

Nah, it's really just a point of interest for you guys. No one here is going to buy it. Just a neat find

I really like the new targa, but it bugs me that its only offered in AWD. Why no RWD targa?

I know this is a special case (and car) but only $15K drop in a $140K car?

I will own that vintage Targa in exactly seven years should I still be upright and engaged on this mortal coil.
I am a Targa guy. It will be my 65th birthday present to me. I will buy one from Onewhippedpuppy albeit with different wheels.. ![]()

There was a good article in Pano about how they figured out Targa people drive them all year round. So they made an AWD version only to differentiate it from the Cab. Something like that.

I'm with you Java. Last Wednesday I experienced a $64,000 depreciation on my wife's 2007 997S. I'll NEVER do that again! No more Porsches under 30 years old for me.

The new targas look VERY sharp in person. I saw one when I picked up my boxster. If I had a lot more money, I might want one.

I have no doubt that most Pelicans *could* buy it, but reasonably assured that we wouldn't. At least not those of us who frequent PPOT. It's not an insult of any kind, quite the contrary.

That's a great looking 911, they nailed the styling on the Targa. People that can just piss away that much money in depreciation and barely drive the car amaze me.
