when you say "targa" - do you mean like the current 997 implementation
which, to my mind, is basically a large, and heavy, sunroof, or do you mean the old style (pre-993). IMHO, the old style basically gave you the benefits of a cabriolet with out the weight.
I think a great 21-century implementation of this would be a glass roof that slides completely out of place (including the pillars).

From AudiWorld's homepage. V12TDI too heavy to make sense in R8
