There's a separate insert for the Technical Data.
The 911 has a steering rack with the input shaft on the centerline of the vehicle. It's how a single seater racecar may have it arranged. It's convenient for making a RHD version.
My 914 uses the front suspension and steering rack from the 911 & thus has the same steering intermediate shaft layout.
In my opinion, this is the ugliest steering wheel that Porsche ever used on any of their cars...
Looks like an airbag wheel but it's not...
The targa top is made of a flexible material (layered).
When storing, the frame collapses and the targa top does a double fold to become about 40% of the open size.
Then the folded targa top can be stored in the front trunk.
When I worked at the GM Concept Center California, I worked on a project vehicle (Pontiac Salsa which didn't go into production but Hot Wheels made a model of it) that had a targa top.
I bought a used Porsche Targa top to use as a model for the top on the Pontiac Salsa. Since it was a "concept" vehicle, even though we built a running "mock up" of the car, the targa top was mocked up with a solid removal panel without the folding feature.
