Up for sale is my 1990 Porsche 911 Targa Carerra 4. This is your chance to own one of 158 Targas built for the US
market in 1990! Porsche Club of America member. 100% + eBay seller since 1998. The car is a garage queen - no rain,
no salt, no snow. No title issues, not salvaged or in an accident. Never tracked or beaten on. Meticulous,
proactive maintenance. Doesn't burn oil and still pulls you into your seat all the way to redline like the day it
left Stuttgart. Check out the recent oil test report from Blackstone below (in service history).
