Started missing the 997 S that I sold, miss the manual transmission and overall performance. Always liked the looks of the older air cooled cars. Looked at this 83 Targa. Took it for a test drive and wasn't impressed by its handling . ride or shifting. It was a well cared for car with a well documented service history and recent work done. Nothing wrong with it. In fact it was a really well sorted honest daily driver, just not a concourse car.
I know its not fair to compare it to a modern 911, but that's the choice to be made when looking for a new ride at this price point.
After driving the 83 Targa I did not think it was the better choice over a 997. Ok Air cooled guys, the what am I missing?
