Sadly I must sell my loved Porsche 996 Targa. An upcoming move to NYC and no parking means I must sell, but I hope it goes to another enthusiast who will take care of the car. It took me a long time to find the color combination of Black over Savannah Beige interior especially in a Targa. I choose the Targa because I wanted an open air feel car with out the soft top convertible and also because the Targa's are the only 996 with the open rear hatchback style window.

In summary the car is a 2003 Porsche 996 Targa with approximately 80k miles on the chassis. Recently due to an overheating issue the original motor was pulled and a brand new '07 build year 997 3.6L crate motor direct from Porsche was installed by Roock Motorsports. When you buy a new motor from Porsche it comes with everything new attached to the motor so it is a complete swap, not just a bare longblock. The chassis has approximately 80k miles and the new motor has approx. 1500 miles, just broken in! As you would expect with a new motor the engine bay is very clean and the best part is that since it's a newer 997 motor you don't have to worry about the dreaded IMS issue. The interior is exceptionally clean as well.
Brakes and tires have plenty of life and there are no issues with the car. I would not hesitate to drive this car across the country.
Car is accident free and I can provide an Autocheck by request.
The beautiful Targa top works perfect and is great on sunny days.

Was a new clutch installed at the same time?
heated seats? any other nice options? How many owners? How firm is your price?
What is the condition of the tires and brakes?

Are there any scratches on the body or rims?

 

Seats are non-heated sport seats.
I believe I'm the 3rd owner, but I"ll have to double check that for you.
Brakes have plenty of life as well do the tires. If you want I can measure the tread depth and take a picture of the brake pads.
No scratches or dings on the body and wheels are clean. Very minor and typical rock chips on the front bumper from highway driving.
I'm a little flexible on the price, shoot me an offer.

 

GLWS. I'm tempted but really looking for a coupe. Car looks great...very clean. Out of interest, did Porsche cover the cost of the new engine?

 

Well it is a coupe And no Porsche didn't cover it since it was out of warranty. Replacement was to the tune of $20k with the motor, labor, and transportation.
