1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Targa review from North America
"Fun Car To Own!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Original Blaupunkt stereo stopped working in 2004.
Front windshield pits easily.
Side pockets (plastic part) cracked by the door.
General comments?
This car is like the first pretty girl you dated in High School. The only difference is the car looks the same today as it looked 23 years ago - the girl???. - Timeless look.
Great on corners.
The high school girls still look at you when I pick up my oldest son from a high school event. Reality = they are admiring the car and or my son.
I manage around 25 MPG, as I never race around.
