Porsche 911 S Targa – An Iconic Classic with Character
This stunning black Porsche 911 S Targa with a beautiful cream interior is one of the most desirable classic sports cars ever produced. Featuring the iconic stainless steel Targa roll bar, this model perfectly combines open-top driving pleasure with the comfort and security of a coupé. Porsche originally described the Targa as a car that offers “the protection and safety of a coupé together with the freedom of driving in fresh air and sunlight.”
Powered by a matching-numbers 2.7-litre six-cylinder boxer engine, this 911 S benefits from a rebuilt engine and delivers the unmistakable driving experience that has made the air-cooled Porsche 911 legendary among enthusiasts worldwide. The car drives exactly as it should and remains a true driver’s classic.
The elegant black exterior is complemented by a well-preserved cream interior, creating a timeless specification. Sitting on beautiful Fuchs alloy wheels, a feature that was exclusive to the 911 S model in period, this Targa presents the perfect blend of sportiness and refinement. Porsche equipped the original 911 S with a range of performance-oriented upgrades, including lightweight alloy wheels, a leather steering wheel and ventilated disc brakes, underlining its position as the flagship model of the range.
One of the most appealing features of the Targa is its versatility. The removable roof panel allows the car to be enjoyed in several configurations, transforming it from a secure grand tourer into an open-air sports car within moments. The clever design was revolutionary when introduced and remains one of Porsche’s most iconic innovations.
The paintwork shows some age-related imperfections and would benefit from cosmetic attention in the future. However, these minor flaws do not detract from the overall appeal of the car and contribute to its honest, authentic character. This is not an over-restored showpiece, but a genuine classic Porsche that can be driven and enjoyed immediately.
Imported and ready for its next custodian, this Porsche 911 S Targa represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a highly desirable air-cooled classic with matching numbers, a rebuilt engine, beautiful specifications and excellent driving manners. A true collector’s car that perfectly captures the spirit of Porsche’s golden era.
