911 Targa 4S Heritage Design Edition

2020–2021Targa

The first car in Porsche's Heritage Design strategy, revealed on 2 June 2020 and limited to 992 units — a number chosen to match the type code. Underneath it is a Targa 4S, with 331 kW (450 PS; 443 hp) and 530 Nm (391 lb-ft), unchanged chassis and the option of the seven-speed manual. Over the top are cues from the 1950s and early 1960s: Cherry Metallic paint with a white livery and spear-shaped motorsports graphics on the front wings, gold badging, a 1963 crest on the bonnet and wheel centres, 20/21-inch Carrera Exclusive Design wheels in gloss black, Bordeaux Red and Atacama Beige two-tone leather with corduroy, a perforated microfibre roof lining and green-backlit dials. Buyers also received a numbered Porsche Design chronograph.
