Blond or Brunette....I love 'em both (but I own a Coupe)....there's no replacing the line of those rear side windows. Cabs look cool with the top down....Coupes look cool all the time.

Not a big fan of the cab. I guess it depends on where you live. Here in Washington, there is not a lot of opportunity to take advantage of the open top.

I own the cab, but struggled with the same choices. The coupe IMHO is better looking, but the thrill of top-down driving is hard to beat. The hardtop (for winter) adds some versatility, but doesn't look as good as the coupe. I wish they made a wide-body Targa....

From all the years when I was a non-Porsche fan, I always thought the cabs looked like a softened chick car... Besides, how many convertible days do you really have in Jersey?

Are you kidding? My top's down from April-October almost non-stop, as long as the weather is good.. When I first got my car, it was January, and it was snowing.. First clear day we had, people saw me on the freeway with the top down, seat warmers on and heater going strong..
