If past practice is repeated.
And it s retaining the glorious retro roll bar and cloth roof of the 991.

The used market in the three to five year point might demand a glass roof more but as it ages onward the glass roof can actually become a negative because more of the enthusiast market starts to dictate.

Most of us more performance orientated people tend to be against the glass roof because it adds kilos to the top of the car.
In addition to the coupé and cabriolet versions targa versions of the carrera 4 and carrera 4s were also available which carry on with the glass canopy roof design used since its first application on the 993 until the 991 which reverted to the classic targa top layout used on the early 911 targas.
