Our team presents a highly distinctive 2015 Porsche 911 Targa 4S that has been thoughtfully reimagined through a Kelly Moss Motorsports “City Safari” conversion, completed in August 2019. Finished in black over a black interior with houndstooth accents, this example blends the mechanical sophistication of the 991-generation Targa with a motorsport-developed suspension package designed for versatility and real-world usability. Showing 50,450 miles and supported by documented service history, this 991.1 Targa 4S represents a unique, enthusiast-driven interpretation of Porsche’s modern all-weather grand tourer. 

The 991-generation Porsche 911 Targa 4S holds special significance in the 911 lineage as the model that famously revived the traditional Targa body style with a fixed roll-over hoop and wraparound rear glass for the first time since the 964 generation. After years of more conventional glass-roof Targa interpretations on the 993, 996 and 997, Porsche returned to the original design ethos introduced in the late 1960s, combining the visual identity of the classic brushed-metal Targa bar with thoroughly modern engineering and an automated roof mechanism. The result is a car that offers open-air driving without sacrificing structural integrity, refinement, or everyday usability.

Power comes from a naturally aspirated 3.8-liter flat-six, paired here with Porsche’s 7-speed PDK transmission and an advanced all-wheel-drive system. In Targa 4S form, the drivetrain provides confident, year-round tractiohon while preserving the balanced, rear-engined character that defines the 911. The signature glass rear dome and aluminum-finished roll hoop give the 991 Targa a distinctly architectural presence, setting it apart visually from both the Carrera coupe and Cabriolet.

This particular black on black example from 2015 builds on that foundation through a professionally executed Kelly Moss Motorsports “City Safari” conversion, completed between July and August 2019. Known globally for its motorsport pedigree, Kelly Moss developed the City Safari package to enhance suspension compliance, durability, and real-world versatility without compromising Porsche’s core dynamics. Documented upgrades include MCS custom two-way adjustable dampers, GT3-derived control arms, adjustable lower control arms, an electronic damping cancellation kit, and upgraded thrust arm bushings, along with Braid forged wheels measuring 18x8 inches front and 18x11 inches rear, wrapped in higher-profile Continental tires for improved ride quality on imperfect surfaces.

Visually, the car boasts a cohesive, rally-inspired aesthetic through a subtle decal package featuring center stripes, orange Porsche side graphics, and door numbers, complemented by houndstooth inserts added to the door panels and dash. Factory options add up to approximately $26,000 of the original $142,760 MSRP, with highlights including PDK, a black leather interior, 18-way Adaptive Sports seats, and a sports exhaust system. The defining standard Targa roof mechanism remains fully functional, preserving the model’s signature ability to transition seamlessly from a ragtop to an open-air experience at the flick of a button. Service records document consistent maintenance at Beverly Hills Porsche.

By combining the historically important 991 Targa body style with a motorsport-informed suspension conversion, this 911 Targa 4S occupies a unique niche. It bridges classic Porsche design language, modern engineering, and real-world usability in a way few contemporary 911 variants attempt, making it a distinctive and thoughtfully executed enthusiast build rather than a purely cosmetic reinterpretation.
