The impressive Porsche 911 Targa returns today with its official debut at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.
With a huge wrap around glass window and a small convertible roof, the Targa allows drivers to experience the airy feeling of a drop top. Like past 911 Targas this new model features a wide bar in place of the B-pillars and a stunning wraparound rear glass panel, ditching the need for C-Pillars.
The large glass segment and convertible segment on the new Targa is now motorized and can be opened and closed at the push of a button. The top is stowed behind the rear seats for portability.

The Targa also features all-wheel drive, making the Porsche all-weather ready. All models are equipped with Porsche’s seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission, and are available with two engine options. There’s the 3.4-liter 350 hp flat-six engine which will hit 60 mph in 4.8 seconds when equipped with the sport chrono package. The Targa 4S sports the 3.8-liter flat six engine which makes 400-hp and can make the sprint in 4.4 seconds.
Pricing starts at $101,600 while the 911 Targa 4S model will sell for $116,200 (not including $995 destination). Deliveries of the 911 Targa in the U.S. are scheduled to begin this summer.
