Factory color

Guards Red

Porsche factory color · paint code 84A

Guards Red is one of Porsche's most recognizable colors: a rich, solid red with a minimal hint of orange and a special luminosity that makes a bold statement on any 911. Originally known as India Red, it has been offered as a standard 911 color since the 1970s. Earlier cars, including mid-1980s 911s, carried it under code 027, and it later appeared under codes 80K and 84A on models including the 964, 993 and 996 into the early 2000s.

Targa

The Porsche 911 Targa 4S (997 generation) was produced between 2006 and 2012 as part of the fifth iteration of the iconic 911 lineup. This model, an evolution of the classic Targa concept, combined all-wheel drive with a distinctive retractable glass roof panel, offering a unique open-air driving experience while maintaining structural rigidity. Approximately 30,000 units of the 997 Targa (across all variants) were produced, with the 4S being a smaller subset, enhancing its appeal among collectors seeking rarer configurations.

Equipped with a 3.8-liter flat-six engine, the Targa 4S delivered 385 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, achieving 0-60 mph in around 4.5 seconds with a top speed of approximately 183 mph. Its all-wheel-drive system provided superior handling and traction, distinguishing it from rear-wheel-drive counterparts. The 997 generation is noted for refined design and improved driving dynamics over earlier models. For exotic car collectors, the Targa 4S holds value due to its limited production and unique roof design, with well-maintained examples showing steady appreciation in recent years, especially low-mileage or special-order vehicles. Its blend of performance and rarity makes it a sought-after piece of Porsche history.
