Porsche just held the world premier of the all new 911 Targa and while the car itself is beautiful in my eyes, the operation of the top is out of this world. No more oversized glass sunroof and no more fiddling with a top you need to put in the trunk. Simply push a button and the rear greenhouse area unhinges while the top itself lifts up and folds into place. When you’re done you’re left with one of the best looking Porsche profiles since the early ’70s. See for yourself in the video below. Pictures, pricing and info to follow.
UPDATE: Pictures, pricing and specs of the 2014 Porsche 911 Targa.
Special thanks to photographer Marc Urbano for the raw video. You can check out more of Marc’s work on his site or his Facebook page.

None of the videos I have seen do a good job of showing how the roll bar mechanism works? Is it two moving elements in motion?
