The 1967 Porsche 911 Targa is a sports car manufactured by Porsche, and an open-top variant of the 911 Coupé.

Named after the Targa Florio race, it was introduced in 1967, two years after the 911 Coupé, as a "safety cabriolet" model. Porsche developed the 911 Targa in response to increased safety requirements for open-top vehicles in the USA, as thanks to the fixed bar, the occupants were protected from injury in the event of the vehicle overturning.[1]

Powered by an air-cooled, 2.0-litre flat-six engine delivering 130 hp, it was offered with a glass or soft folding rear window, as well as a rigid bar.
