the only fixed roof daily i can go back to probably needs a pano roof

I'm curious what a targa roof is like/what some tradeoffs are...

I think for me, it's the feeling of sun on the skin and wind around the legs that I really like.

Other than the Corvette and 911, not sure if there are any other targa cars?

lol so far so good. No VI yet. I usually carpool or take transit when I go to work in downtown.

When I ever I drive into Vancouver in my M2, I always keep it in comfort mode with the valves close with the M-performance exhaust.

My wife had a Del Sol ages ago, with the roof off and the rear glass down what was left was basically an oversized roll bar. Being able to pop a solid roof back on it made me realize that if I went for a removable top it'd be a metal roof or a targa, soft tops are just too annoying when they're up.

edit: I forgot to add, it was a blast to drive like that.

I should stay out of Vancouver

Rode this bad boy in around the Houston Harbor. It’s 32 degrees down here and humid as fuck.

Nice R33.

Pretty sure it's a lambro-bro

I'm sick of these special port projects. 1 more trip back to Hamburg in November and I'll finally get to go back home.

the superamerica is targa goals (if it doesn't leak/breakdown)


i've never been a ragtop guy (still not) and thought hardtops were for retirees...i'm 6 months into targa ownership

i know some want simplicity and the 360 open air feeling, in vancouver as a 3-seasons vehicle i chose metal, rearward privacy and it looks damn good hardparked with top up

the experience will vary drastically by design

an initial drawback is a MASSIVE b-pillar regardless of top up/down, but with blindspot radar and proper mirrors i haven't notice it after the first week

the most common complaint is wind buffeting on highway (think sedan with rear window down) so i keep my top up if i'm gonna be on the highway for a while...otherwise it's almost always down even in light rain, if it wasn't for the aftermarket module (one-touch/removes the low speed limit) i probably wouldn't bother on a daily basis

I saw you rolling up 104 avenue in Surrey a couple of weeks back. I was like "104 is fucked from truck traffic, RIP oil pan"

lol, its OK. It goes back up as well :fuckyea:

Did she just ride directly into your car? :O

how the hell does that even happen

^ this is how it happened

Hahahahahahaha that's the same car from the shitty drivers thread. Fuck, that guy has no luck.

Throw them under the jail!

Holy... the perfect gif responses and that poor versa

New wheels and tires - took off the crappy, peeling, curb-rashed to Hell replica wheels and snagged a set of almost-mint OEM wheels from Bellingham for less than the local Craiglist idiots are asking for. RE71Rs from Costco (thank you penny installs/cash card rebate - and lower pricing than anywhere else).
