The first 911 Targa was presented way back in 1965 and has always been synonymous with the 911 model chosen by "gourmets". The engineers got the idea for the Targa from the endurance race Targa Florino, which took place in Sicily near Palermo. The rules required a safety arch for convertibles. From the latter, the "Targo" is immediately recognizable as a body version of the 911 even today.
