It makes sense to resurrect the " real " Targa per this image - most folks prob couldn't tell the difference between the recent ones and a coupe anyway and it couldn't sell any worse than recent ones - perhaps more as the boomers could want one for nostalgia - ( my first 911 was an '87 triple black Targa ) . But with today's miniscule front trunk space, don't know where they would stow the fold-up top - hope they don't elim the rear seat to use as its storage space - that would be a deal breaker for most buyers.IMO.
Plus, with Porsche never missing an opportunity to gouge its loyal 911 customers , this style Targa gives them the ability to charge $$$ options for hoop and mirrors in carbon look , flat black , Basalt black, brushed stainless steel, white vinyl for Jersey Shore , Tiger skin -look for Chinese mkt, gold-plated for Middle East , etc.. .

Richmaverick:
Was what you saw similar to the spy shots out there?
Yup, same as the spy shots. What finally confirmed it was the spoiler and how they hid it, same as the spy shots. I should have tried to turn around and try to follow it.

Wow! This is a perfect example of how tastes are such a personal thing.
The Portuguese (and I'm sure others) have a saying that declares that " Tastes should never be discussed/argued".
To me, the Autocar rendering is far too much Ford GT rather than Porsche. Also - really don't like the roof-line (far too flat).
Finally, the last thing a modern mid-engined Porsche needs are those horrible decals!
They look OK on a 70's inspired GT3, not a future 9XX that will have to not only match , but beat the likes of McLaren and Ferrari 458.
