The perfect mix of coupe and cabriolet: The 911 Carrera 3.0 Targa. The silver metallic exterior color combined with the leatherette/fabric combination with the center panels in grey-black tweed fabric is a contemporary witness to the timeless elegance of the 80s. Nothing disturbs the puristic shapes of the 911 silhouette. The perfect look and the open driving pleasure is a combination that you can get excited about again and again.
The very original, authentic flair makes this example a very rare "survivor", since the body was only fully galvanized from model year 1981. The underbody does not show any untypical oil deposits, but is very dry, clean and undeformed. The interplay of documented history, classic and sought-after color combination, as well as the exceptional state of preservation gives this car an impressive overall picture that is worth collecting.
The state is like time travel. One almost forgets that this vehicle was built more than 40 years ago. The fact check gets the pulse of every collector racing: German delivery, traceable history and many years of previous ownership, full checkbook maintenance and overall can only be described as immaculate. Only rarely do we find such an early G model as a Targa, which is in such good condition and has survived the test of time with constant professional maintenance. This specimen is a special opportunity, especially for the connoisseur and lover of vehicles that are true to the original.
The body was recently repainted according to factory specifications, as the previous paintwork did not meet our requirements. In this context, many rubbers and seals were renewed. The rust prevention ensured that the bodywork is very well protected for the future.
The original on-board folder is part of this collector's item, including the neat original checkbook, operating instructions and complete set of keys, as well as a complete tool set.

Conclusion: This 911 3.0 SC Targa from model year 1980 is one of the few remaining vehicles on the market that is available in this condition and with this history. Only rarely is there a combination of a sought-after color scheme and such an outstanding condition – and with low mileage at that. This vehicle is in an exhibition-worthy condition and yet you can move it in a relaxed or sporty manner, depending on your individual preference. According to the Porsche motto: "A 911 doesn't age, it just matures", this Targa will continue to develop its potential as an investment in the future and, above all, give the new owner a lot of joy.
