Me, not so much... :-) https://sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volvo_960

So if the PPE platform can be modified to such extent that it suits both the big Cayenne SUV and the small Cayman two-seater sports car, it sounds to me like it could very well be modified to suit the successor for the Taycan four-seater luxury sports car as well—which would be just fine with...

I don't get it. Why not just co-develop the new Taycan successor on a new platform together with Audi then (in order to achieve the lower per-car production cost), and keep the well-known Taycan brand name for this next generation four-door luxury sports EV? If they do “kill” the J1 platform...

I do hope Porsche reconsiders and continues to develop the Taycan into a J2! Over the years I've had several Audi S/RS cars, BMW M cars, a 996 4S Coupé, and before my current Taycan GTS Sport Turismo—my first ever EV(!)—I had the Cayman GTS 4.0 PDK (and I still have my old Audi RS6 2014). I've...

I have a 2023 Taycan GTS Sport Turismo and a 2014 Audi RS6 Avant (similar choice in principle), and although the RS6 is a unique irreplaceable car (while the Taycan is not), I would/will keep the Taycan once either of them has to go, as it is a superior car in practically every aspect…

Where I live (and mostly drive around) the Taycan is quite common—on one occasion I counted to five(!) additional Taycans parked in the same area at my local small shopping center… After over two years of ownership, only one person so far has approached me to comment on the car, and it was a...

Thanks for the tip! For me the message never grayed out, it just toggled between high-lighted and not high-lightened when I selected it, and I also went into the AC menu and turned AC off before, but the procedure still behaved as described above, I'm afraid...

I've had problems with every OTA update I've done (I've gone through around four now), and I wonder if there is anyone else who has experienced similar problems? Right now I'm having trouble with the WTD4 OTA update: I received an update message in the PCM while driving a couple of weeks ago...

I fully agree with this description—I'm fine with a somewhat "sluggish" response at the lower end of gas pedal pressure, and then instantaneous response at the higher end of gas pedal pressure, but there is no middle ground where it is responsive around the middle; it just goes from low-end...

I also got the WTD4 OTA notice in my display a short while ago, but I didn't do the update immediately as I planned to do it in a couple of days, but now it's completely gone from my display... Has anyone else experienced an OTA update being displayed but then removed? Did it come back again...

Very nice! I would have added black painted brake callipers though (I still get slightly irritated over the red brake callipers on my black car... :)). Also, it looks like you didn't add tinted windows, and I think the car looks so much better without the rear tinted windows (fortunately one can...

If any of you guys want *really* harsh, try the Audi RS6 Avant C7 with DRC (Dynamic Ride Control, replacing the standard air suspension) set to Sport mode... 😂

I completely agree with this assessment! I have a 2023 GTS Sport Turismo with the MAPEV tune, and although of course now vastly improved over original, I too still lack the responsiveness when pressing the accelerator fast but only partly. In order for the car to be significantly more...

All great points; I would only add the benefit of the driving experience—with the low center of gravity, explosive acceleration, positive steering feedback and breaking, the Taycan also perform quite well on the track (even for track experienced ICE drivers :–). The single greatest disadvantage...

I have a 2023 GTS ST (with a MAPEV tune :–). Not only is it my first ever EV, it's actually hands down the best car I've ever had (it replaced my previous 2021 Cayman GTS 4.0 PDK with an APR tune, and I also still have my old 2014 RS6 Avant, also with an APR tune, and I've had >30 cars, mostly...
