				Simply out of curiosity , does anyone know how many targa tops were manufactured, the puropose and total number how many imported into Australia?
And yes the Galactic Lighspeed Red Rocket is a Traga top

				Have NFI, but it wouldn't be that many + it's getting harder to find them too ... 
 
I thought there was a web site with import numbers, but I can't find it - FROG may know ?
Cheers, Bantum ...

				Found some figures for the US : Subaru sold 92,445 BRATS in North America ...
More details here : 
http://www.cars101.com/subaru_archives.html
It doesn't state the model type, So you could extrapolate from them that say maybe a 1/3rd of them would have been Targa tops ?
Still trying to find some AUS figures ... :9
Cheers, Bantum ...

				I've got two, and know of another 4 around the area, so that gives us 7 that we know of now 
 
I guess we could start a count?  Dunno how we'd implement it though.
Cheers

				I have a mate in Ayr who has one and I know of a second one still driving around in Ayr.  That takes us up to 9
