That classic roll bar is still there, but the 992.2 now unfolds the roof in a ballet performance of glass and mechanics that almost makes you want to applaud. Fifteen seconds of theater, every single time. There are people who open it just for the audience on a terrace. I don’t condemn that. I understand it completely.
Well, back to the car that’s currently gleaming here. The 911 Targa 4S we’re offering is a 2026 model year, delivered by the Porsche Center Hagen on March 16 of that year, and finished in Aventurine Green Metallic. And I’d like to dwell on that for a moment, because this color is no mere shade of green. Aventurine is that deep, forest-like green that looks almost black in the shade and suddenly turns emerald in the sun.
It’s the color that says: I know exactly who I am; I don’t need to shout. Red is for people who want attention. Aventurine Green is for people who already have it and don’t need to do anything with it.
Under the rear hood lies the familiar twin-turbo six-cylinder boxer engine, delivering a solid 480 PS here, paired with the PDK and all-wheel drive—the combination that makes the 4S such a deceptively effortless, fast car. Deceptive, because with this 992 generation, you only realize how fast you’re going when you glance at the speedometer and catch your breath. The boxer engine still roars with that typical Porsche tone—somewhere between a growling organ and an attacking swarm of bumblebees—only now it does so with a touch more refinement than before.
It’s come of age, but the mischief is still there.
This one is brand-new in the truest sense of the word. Delivered by the Porsche dealer in Hagen, with the standard pre-delivery inspection thoroughly completed before delivery, and otherwise a blank slate. No wear and tear, no history, no previous owner who crammed three dogs and a trailer hitch into it. What you’re getting here is a 911 that has seen little more than the transport truck and our showroom floor.
Four seats, so theoretically a family car. In practice, those back seats are mainly intended for your coat, your weekend bag, and the idea that you’re actually quite responsible. But let’s be honest: You don’t buy a Targa to be sensible. You buy it because you want to open the roof on a Saturday morning, head toward the coast near Zandvoort, and feel along the way that a car can simply be a pleasure.
What I appreciate so much about this particular model is its understated elegance. No fluorescent accents, no circus. A green 911 Targa with that steel roll bar is the car you’ll still be happily driving out of the garage thirty years from now, while the flashy configurations will have long since seemed outdated. That’s the taste of someone who knows that a 911 doesn’t have to make a statement. The 911 is the statement.
Green, reserved in character, open-top. This is the 911 you buy when you’ve already seen it all.
