Vehicle Description
2003 Porsche 911 Targa: Glass Roof, Classic Feel, and Everyday Usability
The 2003 Porsche 911 Targa offers something completely different within the 911 lineup. Finished in Arctic Silver Metallic over Graphite Grey Leather, this car blends classic 911 proportions with a unique open-air experience that sits between a coupe and a cabriolet.
With an original MSRP of $82,210, the Targa was never the mainstream choice. It was built for a specific type of buyer—someone who wanted the structure of a coupe with the versatility of open-air driving.
That is exactly what makes it interesting today.
What Makes the 996 Targa So CoolThe defining feature of the 996 Targa is its full glass sliding roof system.
Unlike a traditional sunroof, the Targa offers:
a massive panoramic glass panel
a power sliding roof that retracts under the rear window
a hatchback-style rear glass for added practicality
It transforms the car:
closed, it feels like a refined coupe with extra light
open, it delivers an airy, almost convertible-like experience without sacrificing rigidity
This is one of the most usable open-air 911 configurations Porsche has ever built.
A Different Kind of 911 Ownership ExperienceThe Targa is not about being the fastest or most aggressive 911.
It is about:
enjoying the drive at any pace
bringing more light and openness into the cabin
having a 911 you can comfortably use every day
You still get the fundamentals:
rear-engine layout
naturally aspirated flat-six
classic 911 driving feel
But with a more relaxed, lifestyle-oriented edge.
Who This Car Is ForThe 996 Targa is for someone who wants a 911 but does not want the typical 911 experience.
It fits someone who:
prefers open-air driving without a full convertible
wants a more unique, less common 911
values usability and practicality
appreciates subtle differences within the Porsche lineup
It is for the buyer who understands that the Targa is not about status—it is about experience.
Arctic Silver Over Graphite Grey: Period-Correct and TimelessArctic Silver Metallic is one of the most iconic Porsche colors of the era.
It works particularly well on the 996:
highlights the shape without overwhelming it
keeps the look clean and understated
pairs naturally with the glass roof design
The Graphite Grey interior complements the exterior with a cohesive, period-correct feel that still holds up today.
Features That Make This Targa Stand Out:• 3.6L Naturally Aspirated Flat-Six
• Unique Full Glass Sliding Targa Roof
• Rear Glass Hatch for Added Practicality
• Power Seat Package
• 18' Carrera Wheels
• Graphite Grey Leather Interior
• Arctic Silver Metallic Exterior
CARFAX History and OwnershipAccording to the CARFAX report:
• 38,600 miles last reported
• No accidents or damage reported
• 3 previous owners
• 7 service history records
• Last owned in Florida
Ownership highlights:
long-term ownership from 2007 through recent years
low annual mileage during long-term ownership
consistent registration and maintenance activity
Service records include:
routine oil changes
alternator replacement
general maintenance and upkeep
The history reflects a car that has been used lightly and kept in stable ownership for most of its life.
Why Someone Should Get OneThe 996 Targa sits in a niche that almost no modern car fills.
It offers:
coupe structure
open-air capability
added practicality with the hatch
And it does so in a way that feels distinctly Porsche.
For the right buyer, this is not just a different 911—it is a better fit for how they actually drive.
