Targa top body style

Targa top, or targa for short, is a semi-convertible car body style with a removable roof section and a full width roll bar behind the seats. The rear window can be fixed or removable. The word targa comes from the 1966 Porsche 911 Targa (which itself was named after the Targa Florio road race), which popularised this body style, though the first production car with this system as an option was actually released five years before, namely the 1961 Triumph TR4.

In common usage, any piece of metal or trim which rises up from the side of a car and continues in an uninterrupted line over the roof and down the other side may be called a targa band, or sometimes a wrapover band.

Examples of the Targa car body style include:
