Fans of all things Porsche will want to check out these pictures of the all-new Porsche 911 Targa, which have been leaked ahead of the car’s official debut.

The 911 Targa was suppose to make its official debut at the Detroit Auto Show later on this evening, but a few pics have managed to find their way onto the internet and we’re certainly not complaining.

The new 911 Targa features a big sliver ‘hoop’ along the B-pillar, which is a nice nod back to the Targas of old and the new version certainly resembles the original 1960’s Targa (pictured below) a lot more than some of its predecessors.

The new Targa is also set to receive a 3.4-liter flat six engine producing 345 hp. So that should be fun… if you can afford it.

There’s no word yet of a price or when the car will be available to the general public, but we’re sure all the finer details will be revealed later today in Detroit…
