🧰 Description Overview
This rare 1968 Porsche 912 Soft Window Targa represents a fascinating blend of design innovation and classic Porsche driving purity. Combining a stainless steel roll bar with a removable roof panel and a zip-off clear plastic rear window, the unique “soft window” configuration allows the car to function as a coupé, semi-open Targa, or full convertible—all in one. Produced for a brief 14-month period between December 1966 and January 1968, the 912 Soft Window Targa stands as one of the most distinctive Porsche variants ever made.
Finished in elegant Ossi Blue over a black leatherette interior, this example captures the aesthetic and spirit of late-1960s Porsche craftsmanship. Power comes from the 1.6-liter flat-four engine mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, delivering the light, balanced driving dynamics that made the 912 a beloved successor to the 356.
Well-preserved and sympathetically maintained, this two-owner car shows only 13,000 miles and embodies the grace, simplicity, and originality that collectors prize.
