The actual car fundamentals are excellent though. But, but...it's a large car and driving the 911 has reminded me how well they fit on the UK roads and how much I missed that manual interaction. BUT I only miss that interaction if I am properly 'driving'. As in not just getting to places. The...
Yes! I drove a hundred thousand of miles or so in 4 911's in the 80's and 90's and rarely sold for less than 10% of the original price paid. Fun times.
When my car is manoeuvring at low speed it does seem that there is a low hum from the front of the car that seems artificial. Is this created to warn pedestrians or is it actually part of the car’s system?
We are not clicking the “Porsche Sound” on this order (but of course not saving that $500 because it freed up money for two other options).
Is the right decision. It totally unnecessary and despite Porsche efforts sounds detached from the car and even is perfect I would never pay for it...
I like the angrier, more aggressive Gen 1 over the seemingly Polestar-inspired Gen 2. Porsche is out to make money and perhaps they have found a slightly more conservative style will help with that 🤷♂️. But it's only going to be a collectible in my mind.
Moving the dial in automotive design...
From stormtrooper to trainspotter.
For me the series 1 design works better, one small detail where the body work flows over the top of the headlight and swoops on towards the front of the bonnet on the series 1 is a really lovely detail that echoes the flowing lines of rest of the series 1 car...
Can you swap out standard brake discs for ceramic ones after say six years or so? Or coated discs, do these last or does the coating wear off in relation to rusty discs? I just have standard discs at the moment but they seem pretty good really. And I’m not tracking my Taycan ! Well not...
Just had the same over Xmas. Quoted over a month. Moaned a bit, left the car at the local Porsche centre. Turned around in 3 working days. Great service.
Info starting to come out from Porsche themselves. Anyone see anything interesting in the photos or video? To me, looks like they still have camo bits over parts of the new front bumper
I suspect that the new Taycan will follow the Macan ev stylised image recently released by Porsche. I think...
You can alter the height it's just difficult to find (even the sales rep couldn't find it).
Toggle the yellow highlights to the HUD. Press the roller switch on the right side of the steering wheel, scroll down with the roller switch to 'settings' (this is below the immediate visible choices)...
I feel very much the same, for me an SUV is just not in the Porsche DNA. I could possibly say the same for the Taycan and Panamera. Which would leave currently 911 and 718. However why shouldn’t Porsche extend the brand and make some hay in the process. The legacy of Porsche is pretty much...
I traveled 130 miles yesterday in my rwd Taycan, a lot of boring A road (single carriageway) stuff, a few blistering overtakes and then 10 miles across some wide country roads which the Taycan absolutely blitzed, an impressive cruiser on busier roads but comes alive switching to Sport plus...
