This Porsche is more like a Volkswagen
Thinking that I would get a great performing car for the money, boy I was wrong. Last week I came up to a light next to a corvette z06. When it turned green, the Z06 took off and I could not catch him. Even around the winding roads. I should have opted for the ZO6,and saved myself 40,000. Porsche is a waste of money.
Go With the Ferrari Instead
Service and reliability and Porsche NA are not worth the price of admission at any level. Save the money and go with the Infiniti G35 or bypass the lack of German workmanship and go with Italian craftsmanship.
What's Not to Like
Having had the pleasure of owning a few special cars, this is my first Porsche...whoa. The engine hanging off the rear end makes this the best feeling and handling car I've driven. The exhaust note announces your arrival without being intrusive. Running through the gears of this fast, quick, beautiful car makes the commute something to look forward to. It is simply a great car. It makes me happy.
Timeless Targa
Surprisingly easy to do basic maintenance. Almost as easy as my 2004 Miata. After three owners and 65,000 miles, looks great, drives great and is fun at autocross too. OEM parts such as brake rotors, pumps, clutch are expensive but last at least 50,000 miles.

911 Targa
Although I do not actually own a targa I did have the pleasure of driving one during a 5 month period before I purchased my turbo. Althought the targa can not be compared to the turbo it is also a lot cheaper and for a car that is not at all that expensive, I'm really happy with it. I don't know what's wrong with the other guy that rated the targa.
