Finally! ...

... after so many years they produce a other real Targa.
Not that joke with the glass top which they called Targa.
I'd like to see it without the disguise.
I think I'd like it. My second Porsche was a Targa.
Happy Porsche'ing

It'd be amazing if it has a zip-out soft rear window.

Although an electrically operated soft piece with a heated glass window is more "logical."

It looks like it has a clam shell, so that back half must be able to lower and raise, as well, leaving the middle the only thing standing, doubling as a roll bar.
I didn't see a clamshell...

... to me it looks like the rear is a fixed, curved glass window and you only remove the t-top.
We'll have to wait and see.
Happy Porsche'ing

At the 22 second and 37 second markers, there appears to be a seam that runs from the rear of the car (just above the fender) and up the "rollbar" of the car. Maybe it's the access panel for the engine bay, but it looks like a clamshell seam to me.

Other than looks (which is pretty subjective), what advantage does a Targo offer over a Cab?

... of the interior (harder to break in) and of the passengers (in case of a rollover).
Happy Porscheing,
