    My dream car

    I've always loved the porsche targa. I was looking through the used car section on porsche's canadian website and happened upon this beauty. If only i was 50,000 dollars richer and could use the 10 grand i have now on a car instead of tuition. I hope to evenutally own one of these, the exact model that the link below shows. Feel free to revel in it's glory..just timeless.

    A true beauty

    It is a very glorious machine. I agree that the design of the 996 is timeless. Its great.

    Er... dude... 993

    I love the 993's styling the best. As a Turbo, it's immensely voluptuous...

    993 is the best looking of the modern 911's. A standard Carrera Coupe for me.

    The best looking targa would be the Ferrari Superamerica.

    Rice abit, the Supra Targa's awesome as well.

    It's nice, but I don't like what they did to the bootlid (standard 575M bootlid looks better).

    TVR Tuscan S Mk1 FTW!!! *Attachment later, I'm @ college now*

    Carrera RS perhaps?

    I have to disagree here. The Ferrari Superamerica, targa or not, is a bad looking car, especially compared with its predecesor, the 550 Barchetta.

    Low, low, low standards

    I have to agree with Clivey that the TVR Tuscan was my favourite targa. But honourable mention goes to the Maserati MC12 and Porsche Carrera GT for awkwardness, and the Toyota MR2 for simplicity using a proper T-bar to retain structural ridgidity.

    in all seriousness:

    In the words of JC " the supra may be a super car, but its not a supercar" I like the supra too, but for some reason i feel ashamed to say. Maybe its the japanese soullessness or the street racing image that gets to me. Still the 993 is real pretty and one model everybody will still relate too most in time to come.
