The Porsche 911 was introduced in 1963 and quickly became the icon of the sports car world. The Targa version, launched in 1965, was unique thanks to its removable roof panel and fixed roll bar, designed as a safe alternative to a convertible. This concept was a huge success and became an enduring classic within the 911 series.
Corgi Toys released the Porsche Targa 911S as number 382 in the early 1970s. The model was produced in various colors, including the striking metallic green, which is now highly sought after by collectors. As was typical of Corgi models of the period, the model included working features, such as a detailed interior and realistic suspension, making the Porsche not only beautiful to look at but also appealing as a toy.
This example is in very good condition and comes with its original packaging, which is also in very good condition. The combination of a beautifully preserved model and complete packaging makes this a highly valuable and sought-after collector's item.
The Corgi Toys 382 Porsche Targa 911S in metallic green is not only a miniature of one of the most famous sports cars ever built, but also a stunning example of Corgi’s attention to detail and quality in the 1970s.
