Some Porsches stand out not only because of their design, but especially because of the story they carry with them. This 997-generation Porsche 911 Targa 4S is a particularly fine example of that. Newly delivered in Belgium, from its first owner and accompanied by an exceptionally comprehensive historical record dating back to the original order in 2007.
The story begins on October 12, 2007, when the first owner configured his new 911 Targa 4S at the Porsche Center in Geel. He opts for a particularly stylish configuration in Atlas Gray Metallic, combined with an all-black leather interior and black leather sport seats. The final order was placed on January 8, 2008, and the car was first registered in Belgium on April 2, 2008.
The Targa 4S holds a special place within the 997 generation. It combines the wide body and all-wheel drive of the Carrera 4S with the distinctive glass Targa roof. The large glass roof panel gives the interior a particularly spacious feel and creates a unique driving experience, while preserving the 911’s elegant silhouette. Under the hood is a naturally aspirated 3.8-liter six-cylinder boxer engine producing 355 pk, mated to a five-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission.
The original owner carefully assembled his Porsche. In addition to the exclusive body color, he opted for 19-inch Carrera S wheels, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), leather sport seats, a multifunction leather steering wheel, ParkAssist, a rear window wiper, and the comprehensive Porsche Communication Management system with navigation and a phone module. The Chrono Plus Sport Package is also included as standard equipment.
What makes this Targa 4S particularly interesting is its history. The original order form and purchase invoice have been preserved. Even the correspondence regarding the installation of the alarm system upon delivery is part of the file.
Maintenance was also monitored with great care. The car was serviced throughout its entire life within the official Porsche network. The original service manual is included, along with an impressive collection of invoices that provide a detailed overview of the work performed.
In the years that followed, no corners were cut when it came to maintenance. Among other things, the brakes were replaced, various chassis components were replaced, and numerous preventive maintenance tasks were performed. The invoices show that the owner consistently had the car serviced and repaired whenever necessary.
In August 2026, another comprehensive service was performed at Porsche Center Paal, including work on the automatic transmission and the replacement of various seals. The invoice totaled just over €6,100, which underscores the importance placed on the technical maintenance of this car.
As of today, this Porsche has 146,146 kilometers on the odometer, as documented by a Belgian Car-Pass with mileage records dating back to 2008.
This Targa 4S is therefore a particularly attractive option for anyone looking for an original Porsche 997 delivered in Belgium with a transparent history. Its elegant color combination, the unique Targa concept, and—above all—the exceptionally comprehensive documentation make this a Porsche with a history that can be traced from the initial order to the present day.
