naples991 is infamous around these parts

The black paint and those wheels look great with the silver Targa bar. Enjoy!

Congrats! Love the Targa -- I have to agree with you that IMHO the Targa has nicer lines than the cabs.

Look forward to seeing more!

I haven't been a fan of the sport techno wheels in general but they look really good on your targa!

I cant imagine swapping a car just for "style" - a targa 4S is far from a 991 turbo cab, I wonder how you took this important decision in an hour

but nice looking car, I am yet to see one in person

I am sure I will like it?

"I cant imagine swapping a car just for "style" .Another one....
The launch targa 4S here in Knoxville was bought on a trade for a 991CS coupe.

I feel the same way. I wanted to replace them ASAP but I'm going to run them a few months and see how i feel.

How do you like your CLS? My 12 is below.

I picked up a launch car boxster s just about 2 years ago. I was looking to replace it with the turbo cab or turbo s cab. The Targa in person just has something that got me and sucked me in. with the CLS being just as fast as the turbo or turbo s I wouldn't be missing anything.

CONGRATS!! It's gorgeous. Just saw the same color combo launch car at my dealer. It's better looking in person than I expected and I loved it from the photos, enough to order one site unseen. Can't wait 'til mine arrives in August! Enjoy!
