my head says to do this - wait for bugs and depreciation to settle and buy slightly used. Heart says get an early allocation and customise it to my own spec like I did with the Taycan
I honestly don't think I'd pay for this. I see it as up there with the electronic sport sound in the list of top gimmicks that you don't use unless you're showing a mate or making a video for social media
Because if Elon Musk I wouldn’t even consider a Tesla. Which is a shame because the Roadster and a Model 3 for my wife would be perfect, but I just can’t do it
Looks stunning! I'd love to see the same rendering of the coupe.
The danger though is that we fall in love with the AI version and end up slightly disappointed when the real thing drops
Look forward to seeing the Cayman version then, that would be the one I buy anyway.
I guess what you lose in boot space with the rear charge port you may then gain with the frunk?
Hmm not sure about the rear end on that but hard to tell in black. Is that a central charge port in the rear? Meaning a write off with a simple rear end shunt or reverse in to a pillar
What is everyone wishing for then? I’ll go first:
AWD option from launch
Front suspension lift (need this to get in my office car park)
Decent sized frunk or rear carry space
No fake side air intakes, smooth aero design following Porsche lines. Ok, a 911 EV would be nice.
>300 mile range and...
Triple exhaust on the rear too looking at that video. I loved the VoiceOver at the end where it's quite staid until "PURE PORSCHE FEEL!" and then immediately back to staid commentary again. God bless AI
I guess all we can hope is that the delay is so they can iron out all the issues unlike with the Taycan launch. I don’t really think that’ll be the case but gotta have hope that the launch edition won’t be plagued with issues!
The Audi TT is coming and rumours are that it’ll be excellent like the old Mk1 TT.
Back to the topic, 27 is soon enough I guess but they’re dragging it out aren’t they? There seems to be an appetite for it and has been for a while now.
the sensible head in me says to wait for them to iron...
I loved the noise when I was younger and used to stick sports exhausts on the most ridiculous cars as a teenager (205 GTi, 206 GTi..why!) but after thinking I miss the noise I recently got annoyed with it in a Cayenne loaner.
I'm assuming they'll create some sort of bespoke 718 sound like...
