From one slantnose Targa owner to another, a beautiful car you have. The details look great. What rear wing is that?. I wish my car would look so good, but I just waxed it today and so far so good.

C'mon man be gracious...if you have nothing nice to say keep it to yourself. kekumu is posting because he is proud of his car and is sharing it with the community.

I think the car looks great! But be warned about only 3months of driving it, it will do more damage than good to the car - these cars are meant to be driven and you will not do the car any service by being pareked up 9months of the year.

What mods are done to the car exactly?

Aloha from a pineapple living in Kentucky. Ray, your car is beautiful man! What part of the Islands you from? Their is a Bradda in Hawaii Kai that has or use to own a black turbo, I don't know him but I know people who knows him.
Oh yea, when I saw the post subject I laughed alittle because their is a song about a Hawaiian cah.
Anyway, beautiful car!

What gave it away to you, Columbo? The 5 spoke pattern? The silver paint?

Or when he posted above "They are racing dynamic wheels." ?

(Just kiddin' with ya, although the last sentence is true).

Neat looking car. That must be one of the most rare 80s porsches ever made, a factory Turbo Targa slope. There were certainly 10X more '89 speedsters made, and probably even more Club Sport models made.

Beautiful, Kekumu. I'm a sucker for turbo targas, just couldn't wait long enough for one to come along for me. Looks like aftermarket headers and exhaust so you should look into swapping out that IC if you can.

From another thread you posted - My son has the same little porsche as yours, except we had to revive an abused one. It's now guards red, 12 volts and twice as fast!

Cheers,
Maxx

Awesome, I love your car . . . . but I don't recall that rear wing. Did you just add that on?
