Now up for auction is this 2018 Porsche 991 Targa 4S presented in Racing Yellow over a Black leather interior with Adaptive 18-way Sport Seats. Having been specially configured by its original owner with exclusive options including Rear Axle Steering, Sport Exhaust and the Burmester High-End Surround Sound System, this Targa 4S commanded an original sticker price of over $159k. Preserved in outstanding overall condition with full ceramic coating, this one-owner 2018 example is now being offered out of Irvine, California with approximately 13k miles shown on the odometer.
Reported to have undergone regular professional detailing while always being garage-kept, the Racing Yellow finish is said to be in excellent condition (detailed images are provided in the photo gallery). Clear side marker lenses were installed and the seller also notes that full ceramic coating was applied to the car in December of 2019. Features include a distinctive stainless-steel Targa bar with wraparound rear glass as well as factory optioned SportDesign side mirrors, tinted taillights, LED headlights, a “911” rear model designation and the exterior package painted in high-gloss black. Factory wheels are also equipped which are finished in Black and dressed in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.
The cabin is appointed in Black full leather with 18-way Adaptive Sport Seats Plus featuring heating and ventilation. The interior is reported to be in superb condition with the only modification being OEM Porsche sun visors in leather without airbag warning stickers. Optional equipment selected for this example includes the following:
This second-generation 991 Targa is powered by a 3.0 L twin turbocharged flat-six engine which is paired with a 7-speed dual clutch PDK transmission. 420 HP is distributed to all four wheels allowing this 991 to accelerate from 0-60 MPH in as little as 3.3 seconds. Optional performance features equipped on this model include the Sport Exhaust System, Power Steering Plus, Porsche Dynamic Classic Control (PDCC) and Rear Axle Steering which provides for superior maneuverability at any speed. All scheduled service has been carried out and this Targa is ready to be enjoyed.
This sale will include a set of 2 keys and original books. Finished in eye-catching Speed Yellow while showcasing some must-have options, this Targa 4S presents an incredible value.

@az911 The new SC2 tires were put on by the local Porsche dealership at 8500 miles and are in great shape. Yes, to your point, the factory tires were 4S's, I had them removed just as fast as could be :).
RE: clear bra, I had paint protection film installed on the front bumper, and, the rear diffuser & door sills (both of which are high gloss black). I have receipts of that as well. In my opinion, there is no cosmetic wear nor damage anywhere on the car; I don't want to call it a garage queen but it has been well cared for and never damaged, eaten in, smoked in, etc.

When were the tires last replaced? (I'm guessing that the original 4S Michelins were replaced with the Cup 2s that you specified in the listing?) Also, does the car have any clear-bra coverage in the front? Any prior paintwork or damage history? Thank you.

@geb217 Unfortunately, I have no means to offer anything like CPO, something only a Porsche dealer can do (as far as I know). I can attest the car has no mechanical issues and am providing on paper (invoice/receipts) all the service records from my Porsche dealership with the sale; that of course is simply the oil change I had done when the engine was broken in (3000 miles), the 1 yr service (oil filter, A/C cabin filter, etc), and, the 2 year service (oil change, brake fluid, etc) - all Porsche recommended "by the book" stuff.
@geb217 Regarding CPO, I understand from Porsche that the car's factory warranty will transfer as is from me, the first & only owner and private seller, to the buyer.
Regarding videos, you bet, I have some and would love to share that here. Let me contact PCARMarket real quick and see if they can get it here before the auction ends.

Thx

Hi spatrol,
I love every single thing about this car, as does my wife. But, I have on order a 2021 model of the exact same spec that delivers in Jan. But for my switch to the 7 speed manual & PCCBs in the 2021, the cars will be about identical, including the Racing Yellow paint. :)
David
David,
Why are you selling the car?
Bid in the amount of $75,000
Molly63,
No, the car is not equipped with the Sport Chrono Package. To note, this car has the 7-speed PDK transmission and does a fabulous job in both Normal and Sport mode with both up & down gear changes.
David

I notice the targa does not have sports Chrono pkg, does that mean it does not have rev matching/auto blip and launch control?
