Most Desirable Convertibles for 2003
We're stretching our definitions here, but if you open up the large, power-operated sliding glass roof, the Porsche Targa gets as close to being a convertible as any sport coupe could possibly be. The Targa truly offers all the safety, security, and noise isolation of a coupe, and most of the hair tousling pleasure of a convertible. Bonus points go the engineering marvel glass top. When closed, the tinted roof panel offers a clear view of the sky through more than 16 square feet of glass. Press a button, and the panel slides under the rear hatch to reveal a five sq-ft opening. Technically labeled a 2+2 coupe, the Porsche Targa is powered by an 3.6-liter/320-horsepower six-cylinder boxer engine promising 0-60 mph in 5.2 seconds and a top speed of 177 mph. Suggested retail price begins at $76,000.
