The 1983-1986 Porsche 928S

Overview

The 911 Targa introduced open-roof motoring to the 911 platform, combining mid-roof removal capability with safety-focused rollover protection. Introduced in 1967 alongside the original fixed-roof coupe, the Targa variant employed a removable roof panel and a prominent roll bar integrated into the body structure. The designation "Targa" referenced the dangerous Targa Florio endurance race, deliberately evoking racing heritage while emphasizing safety through integrated rollover protection.
