The Targa has the best rearward visibility of the three models, just one more reason to make one yours.

...not if the rear window is tinted as dark as that one! When I drove it, I kept wanting to flip the rear view mirror to the "lighter" setting...

But tinting can be removed...

...getting a little specific now, aren't we? How 'bout the RSCTWF6x7NRSWDP? (Red SC Targa With Fuchs 6" and 7" and No Rear Spoiler World Domination Plan)

...although, that COULD still have a lot of members!

Dan, the color is Kiln Red Metallic, or Ziegelrot. It was offered 1983-1984. Not a color you'll see too often.

Thanks, Rick

A man walks into an old fashioned soda fountain and asks for a Cherry
Coke
; whereupon the waiter turns around and yells, "One virgin Coke, large".

Rather prudish, the man is taken aback, and says, "That was vulgar young man, I'll just have a regular Coke".

The young waiter, without more than two seconds thought, turns around and yells, "F**k that Coke".

You had a targa, now you have a Cabrio.

Remind me NOT to ride with you if it's going to rain and your top is down. It'd be hell getting it up in time to stay dry.

There is a frame that swings up behind the back seat, the targa top attaches there, then the top slips over the clam, just imagine a targa top with acab top on back, it folds and goes in the trunk, Kevin
