A Canadian-market 2019 Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS, finished in Chalk over black leather and Alcantara and equipped with a seven-speed manual transaxle, is offered on dealer consignment in Florida with 32,000 miles.

A 2019 Porsche 911 Targa 4 GTS produced for the Canadian market and later imported to the United States is being offered for sale in Florida on dealer consignment. The car, a 991.2-generation example finished in Chalk over black leather and Alcantara, shows 32,000 miles on its digital odometer and is equipped with a seven-speed manual transaxle — a configuration that has become increasingly sought after as Porsche has moved toward automatic transmissions in its modern sports cars.
The Targa 4 GTS was factory-optioned with the GTS Interior Package, which brings black leather and Alcantara upholstery with contrasting stitching extending to the center armrest, dashboard and door panels, along with «GTS» embroidery on the headrests. Carbon-fibre trim accents the cabin. The heated 18-way adaptive Sport Plus front seats, a heated steering wheel trimmed in leather and carbon fibre, dual-zone automatic climate control, a Bose sound system, Porsche Communication Management, a CD stereo and cruise control are among the standard appointments.
Power comes from a twin-turbocharged 3.0-litre flat-six rated at 450 horsepower and 405 lb-ft of torque. The engine sends drive to all four wheels through the seven-speed manual gearbox and an electronic limited-slip rear differential with Porsche Torque Vectoring. A sport exhaust system was fitted as standard on the GTS. The selling dealer says an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale, along with a brake fluid flush, and that the tyres and rear brake pads were replaced.
The Carrera GTS featured wider bodywork than the standard Carrera, along with a SportDesign front apron and side mirrors. This example wears a power-retractable black targa top that stows under the rear glass, and it rides on black-finished 20-inch Turbo S centre-lock alloy wheels mounted with Continental tyres. Braking is handled by red-painted Porsche-branded calipers over cross-drilled and ventilated discs. Front and rear parking sensors, a backup camera, LED taillights, dual exhaust outlets and a speed-activated rear spoiler are also present.
Inside, the heated leather- and carbon-fibre-trimmed steering wheel frames a central tachometer with a 7,400-rpm redline, a 200-mph speedometer and gauges for oil temperature, oil pressure, coolant temperature and fuel level. A stopwatch is mounted atop the dashboard. The car was purchased by its current owner in 2026, according to the listing, and is accompanied by a clean Carfax report and an Arkansas title. The Carfax report notes that a bond was released in March 2026 and states that the vehicle was «imported and declared to meet US highway safety specifications». The Arkansas title shows an «OD Actual» notation under the remarks heading.
The 991.2 Targa 4 GTS occupies a distinctive place in Porsche's line-up, combining the open-air targa body style with the wider GTS chassis and a manual gearbox that was available for only part of the model's production run. Examples specified with the three-pedal transmission and the GTS Interior Package tend to attract particular attention among enthusiasts, and the Canadian-market origin adds a further point of difference for American buyers. The car is offered by a selling dealer described as a local partner of the auction platform hosting the listing.
