The 996 generation marked a pivotal moment for the Porsche 911, ushering in water-cooling and a thoroughly modernized design language while retaining the iconic rear-engine layout. Introduced for the 2002 model year, the 996 Targa brought back a beloved body style after a hiatus. Unlike its classic predecessors with their removable roof sections and fixed roll hoops, the 996 Targa featured an innovative, large glass roof that slid back beneath the rear window, offering an open-air experience akin to a panoramic sunroof while maintaining the coupe's structural rigidity and sleek profile. This clever design provided the best of both worlds: the refinement of a coupe with the airy feel of a convertible, making it a distinctive and practical choice within the 911 lineup. This particular 2002 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa, finished in classic Black over a sophisticated Graphite Grey leather interior, exemplifies the model's unique appeal. Power comes from the robust 3.6L water-cooled flat-six engine, paired with a desirable 6-speed manual transmission, offering an engaging driving experience. With 64,830 miles on the odometer, this Targa has been thoughtfully maintained, evidenced by the critical IMS bearing, clutch, and rear main seal services already completed—a significant peace of mind for any prospective owner. The expansive sliding glass roof operates flawlessly, ready to flood the cabin with light or provide an invigorating open-air drive. This is an exceptional opportunity to acquire a well-maintained and highly sought-after 996 Targa, ready for its next enthusiast owner.
