    Jules, Jules, Jules... are you trying to be Frank with us?

    Racemunkey sure is full of brief but important questions with his freshly acquired posting privileges. Since the search function apparently escapes him, we should answer as we can.

    We could refine the question to : why were 1968 911 Sportomatics made?
    1966 911 Coupe - Slate Grey - 304598 - still in restoration!

    And remember, that estimated number (484? Gotta look it up) is divided among Normals, Tourings and Esses, as coupes OR targas. At one time I owned both a T Targa Sporto (#98, still have it) as well as an S Targa Sporto (#236).

    Eric is of course spot on... that car was/is fabulous. Even Frank liked it. Well, OK... the color.
