Porsche 991 Targa Turbo

I don't know if this subject has been beat to death yet but I found a rendering online of a Porsche 991 Targa Turbo. I think that it is absolutely gorgeous and I know that Porsche previously made a Targa Turbo in the 80's. What do you guys think of the Targa Turbo? Would you prefer that over a cabriolet or coupe, even though it sacrifices performance for a classic retro style? Would you be interested in purchasing or trading off your current 991 to get one of these? Again sorry if the topic has been mentioned previously..

The rendering that I found online is below

I have a TTS cab. Not interested at all in the Targa. The cab roof with magnesium panels is like a semi-hardtop and is excellent, almost like the coupe when raised. Perhaps if it weren't so good.

SpyderVancouver is on a distinguished road
Turbo spoiler is not compatible with targa roof opening it seems, so not gonna happen I guess. For targa 4/4s now, cannot add ducktail/sport design/etc. either.

I have been a fan of Targas since I was young. I do understand that some don't like it.


I hope it looks as good in person as it is in the pic.

I'm sure Porsche could figure out a way to make something work. Maybe a retractable spoiler that extends outward ala panamera turbo.
