This is a 3.2 liter Carrera Targa. I looked for more than 10 years to find one in this color. It's very rare to find "Summer yellow" on a Targa model. The Targa refers to the Targa Florio, an Italian road race that Porsche won several times. The top is made so that the center section is removable, and foldable.
I found the car through an ad in Porsche Panorama. It lived in Whidby Island, Washington until it was shipped to me in the spring of 2004.
