I found a company who is currently designing a Targa top for both the 350z and the G35. The kit should be available by this spring. The company's website is below. They have already come out with a Targa for the 2005 Mustang.

Interesting...I'd love a targa top, but wow, the Mustang kit runs $3500 with a glass top! The cheapest one looks to be $2700.

 

Oh wow i would so love to have a targa 350Z, when ever it comes out i want to see who's first to have it and to see what it would look like. And would save me money from having to trade in for a roadster lol .

 

I wonder how they go about creating this targa for the Z? Won't cutting the top ruin the stifness of the chasis? And do they create a whole new top for the targa or do they use the existing top they they cut to create it and
make an attachment for it to clip on and off? very interesting. More info on this project and how serious is this to becoming the real deal?

 

That would be sweet. Where are they located? Obviously not something that would be sold in kit form or that you could just run over to your local body shop to have installed...

 

Holy awful web-design Batman!

Making the stock roof into a targa would seriously impact the stiffness of the chasis.

 

LOL that was my first thought too!

 

yeah, that website sucks.

but in other news, id pay some serious cash to roll around like that.

 

I bet the z would fall apart if you installed that.

 

nah, youd have to take the front strut tower brace off too............

cmon now, they made a convertible! so targa has to be doable.

 

Photo shoped

 

With plenty of Reserch & Development I'd consider it if it looked like this above

 

Damn.... that looks sweet i'm so in for this project if is ever produced !

 

I would really like to keep this Targa project updated to really see how far it goes, and to see if it can actually be done!

 

Christ that looks fuc.king great.

 

Can someone do a photoshop of the g35 with the targa please?

 

Give me a good profile shot of the G, I'll do it.

(I did that silver one up top btw.)

 

here ya go

one more

 

BTW- props on the phtoshop work.
A friend of mine can do some sick things that I would love to learn.

 

The Z chassis isn't too dependant on the roof...most of it is just sheet metal and plastic. The rear strutbar holds more probably.
