Huge leap forward in cinematography in this video. The first minutes contain very good visual work. The overlap of the roof diagram and the real one opening was outstanding. Back to the car, I would have a coupe to be fair, but I reckon that the Targa looks much nicer than the cabriolet and has way more personality.

Damen and Jason you are spot on, in your reviews. Every film is a must watch. Keep up the great work! My quest to find the right targa continues... cheers Rich

Great video. I own this car with a manual transmission since June 2016 and happy to report after 20k miles and countless of targa roof use, the wobbly roof is still functioning reliably and as wobbly as ever but is still working after almost 3 yrs. Great car and do prefer it as my daily driver to my 2017 Macan GTS, my 991.2 GT3, 991.2 GT3 RS, 991.2 GT2 RS, And my GT4 and I drive on all weather conditions including heavy snow and of course on track and autocross. Shortly after I got it, I remember shattering the egos of few GT3 991.1 owners as this car beat them both on track and on autocross on standard P zero tires and with a manual transmission. Imagine if this beast wore cup 2 tires like my other GT Porsches... Lovely Lovely car. Only complain the exhausts note. Mark

I think Porsche should make a special "RS" version of the Targa 4S by deleting the mechanism of the roof top and use a manual hop-on T-top and possibly going through a 'GT3' light weighted treatment to make it a more desirable sports car with Targa top. Tks for the video!

Well done gents. The overall length of a 991.1 compared even to a 2004 Carrera 4S is very similar. A significant difference is in the length of the wheel base and this is what I believe makes the 991.1 models feel more un-Porsche-like. I believe what improves the sensation is more lower -end torque via the turbos in the 991.2 models. Great channel.

A regular fixed roof car is metal all around and the roof part probably has electronics going through it for luxuries and extra materials for sound proofing. A convertible actually puts the most weight on a car the folding soft top frame being the culprit. The Targa roof mechanism looks really thin probably used of lightweight metals. Idk if it is but the targa top is probably fiberglass and not metal

What year was your 911 C4S Targa? I watched your KZitem video and I have a 2018 911 Targa 4S and it does not have headlight washers while your model had them. I know mine was made for the U. S. market but the elimination of such an iconic item was disappointing because I previously owned a 1984 911 Targa and it had this feature. Also, your concern about the functioning of the roof may be of concern, but I am not worried about it as an owner. My dealer tried to get me to upgrade to a GTS but I chose to keep it simple since I was not intending to race the car and there are only certain areas where one can open this car up and I have felt that the 4S has plenty of power in those instances. Thanks for the review, and by the way, I have tired the LAUNCH CONTROL but not the instant acceleration from the center button. I will try it on my next trip later this month.

Think you will find that there is one company in Germany that make the roof mechanisms for all cabriolets and convertibles irrespective of the manufacturer and have done for decades, so it should be perfectly reliable. BTW if you think that roof mech is heavy and cumbersome then you should check out the ones Mercedes use on the SL... 😀
