2020 Taycan Turbo vs. 2018 911 GT3. An Owner's Perspective

[kailifish]

my wife corrected my response

she says “divorce level N - 1 - where “N” is the number of Porsche’s that will cause a divorce”.

I stand by my original answer as it is also correct, but my wife’s answer is more precise.

now the question is... is N a variable or a constant?

dont have as much track experience as you, but i would say subject to my skills, i do feel a lot more comfortable with the 997 on back roads compared to the Taycan.

N can be variable if the wife also has her own Porsches. Mine has two so my N grows to infinity. Way too much fun. I also agree with the comparison and the Taycan doesn't attract as much attention from the big tailpipe crowd on the highway.

"N" is a time based variable - at any moment in time it's fixed but can change over time depending many many factors

In case of a divorce each spouse gets N/2 Porsches, so it is in the best interest of both if N is a very large number

It's pretty simple to figure the Global Wife Support Level for anything based on time of day, most recent gift, most recent thing you did wrong, and a few other variables:

The GT3 is the best track car that you can buy that you can also drive on the street. It really isn't a street car, and isn't designed to do anything practical whatsoever.

The Taycan is the best street car you can buy, and you can drive to work, take friends out for dinner, comfortably sit in rush hour traffic, pickup the groceries or home project supplies, drive across country and carve the canyon roads. Yes, you can also drive it on the track - if you have a nearby quick charger and don't mind shredding a set of $1000 tires.

I was told there would be no math.

I've never even been in a GT3, let alone drive one, so I am not qualified to compare owning a GT3 to a Taycan.

I have owned a number of Porsche's - the last one being a 991.1 Carrera S Cab and I can say with 100% certainly that driving that car was way more fun than waiting for my Taycan.

Not the most glamorous shot but some of us are able to make the Taycan / GT3 family work.

And is that a Ducati next to the GT3? I'm definitely envious of anyone with both a Taycan and GT3.

Congrats on your TCT, mind if I ask which dealership did you take delivery?
