One of the rarest and most unique models of the 997 generation, the 911 Targa features a sliding glass roof system and an opening rear hatch window. This 2008 Porsche 911 Targa 4S is finished in Meteor Grey Metallic over a black interior. It comes equipped with a 3.8-liter flat-six engine, a 5-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission, bi-xenon headlamps, 19” Carrera S wheels, heated front seats, the Bose High-End Sound Package, and Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with navigation. A lifelong California car, this 997 was purchased by the seller, its second owner, from Porsche San Diego in 2021 and is now being offered for auction with less than 97k miles on the odometer.
Available exclusively in all-wheel-drive configuration, the 997 Targa models feature wider fenders than a standard Carrera and are distinguished by a chrome accent along the roofline. This Targa 4S is finished in Meteor Grey Metallic. Equipment includes bi-xenon headlights, a headlamp washer system, fog lights, clear side marker lenses, a power-operated sliding glass roof, an opening rear hatch window, black stone guard decals, a speed-activated rear spoiler, quad exhaust tips, red brake calipers, and 19” Carrera S wheels. The seller notes a few paint touch-ups around the exterior and some imperfections on the front hood and bumper cover. Detailed images are provided in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
The black interior includes heated leather seats with red stitching, a leather-wrapped three-spoke steering wheel with Tiptronic shift buttons, automatic climate control, cruise control, the Bose Surround Sound System, Porshe Communication Management (PCM) with navigation, and black floor mats with red edging. The seller notes signs of wear in the cabin including creases on the seating surfaces.
A naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six engine delivers up to 355 HP and 295 lb.-ft of torque to all four wheels through a 5-speed Tiptronic S automatic transaxle. Standard equipment includes Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), Porsche Stability Management (PSM), and fixed 4-piston brakes with 330mm cross-drilled rotors at each corner. The seller indicates the car has been serviced with new front struts, brake pads, rotors, a starter motor, and sliding glass roof motors during their ownership.
This sale will include owner’s manuals, a car cover, and a clean title (lien).
The seller would like you to know: “Kept in garage since owning.”

Smogged last year.
When last smogged?
@TomSesto Hi, yes registration is current and there are no problems with the car. I had brand new motors installed for the roof so yes it works flawlessly. The car is in great shape and driving to LA is no problem. Thanks!
Greetings. Is it currently licensed, this year, and registered in CA? Smogged last when? Top works flawlessly I presume. What are the major problems with the car, if any? Drivable, I also presume, from where you are at back to L.A.?

@mjcalderone3 I bought the car from San Diego Porsche with the hole in it. There is no evidence of a smoking or pets in the car. I will post a close up shot of the hole. Thanks!

Hello! Thank you for your interest in my Targa. It has been awesome to own a 911 and I am looking forward to owning another one. I am selling because I need to free up some money for a remodel on my house. I have kept it in my garage since owning. Please feel free to ask any questions or if you want more detail on photos. Good luck!
