Being a California car for most of its life, this Targa is said to be completely rust-free and is being offered in excellent condition by the current seller out of Naples, FL.

This Targa was special ordered with the desirable 911 S package, providing an OEM 911 S steel front bumper, upgraded brake calipers, and a set of Koni shocks.

@Eknoors Our understanding is that only a couple of items are listed on the COA from that S package (Koni Shocks and Stabilizer bars) But the vehicle is physically equipped with an S steel front spoiler, S front Brake Calipers, S Front and Rear sway bars, S Koni shocks. Along with no evidence of any of these items ever being installed after the fact on any of the substantial service records.
Bid in the amount of $12,250
Thanks for the extra info and pictures provided. Can you please explain your claim that the car was originally ordered with an S package, including bumper and gauges? How does this show from the COA?
The seller's documentation showed 67k miles, however, upon receiving further documentation from previous ownership, the seller has informed us that there was a clerical error and the mileage is actually 167k. Additional documentation and photos have been added to the listing.
