What Changed

Porsche's iconic 911 variant returns for the 2014 model year. Unlike the prior generation, the new Targa roof is an automated convertible top that fully opens the roof between the a- and b-pillars. Compared to the prior model, the 911 has grown slightly in size adding 1-2 inches in wheelbase and track. The 911 Targa is only offered in all-wheel-drive "4" models with either a 3.4l horizontal six or larger 3.8l horizontal six (4S). Pricing starts at over $100,000.
