Where I live no one gives a Porsche even a first look let alone a second or a point. There are 10+ on street alone.

I get this jaw drop all the time. It’s one of the Taycan perks.

I get a lot of gawps when I’m around town in mine. Had a lad cycle into a telegraph pole yesterday as he looked behind him at my car. Luckily, he just about managed to stay on the bike 😂

Let’s be honest - the kid was super excited as she just thought she saw Kermit out and about in his new lean mean green machine :) 🐸


…… just joking :)

Sigh, perhaps I'll experience this again someday when the heater module debacle is resolved and I'm no longer driving a dealership loaner Macan.
You should learn to live with heated seats and steering only, c'mon Virginia ✌

Here’s a selfie. I don’t think I look anything like Kermit. 🤷‍♂️

Porsche finally fixed our heater. Took 3 weeks to get the part. The bad news is the heater module is the old part that keeps failing. I'm just happy to have heat. If it fails again, and I'm sure it will, I'm hoping the new redesigned part will be in stock.

Yup - no one pays attention to my Mamba Green CT either. I think the last crowd I saw around a car in the neighborhood was a very nice 1963 split window C2 Corvette parked next to a Series 1 E-Type convertible.

I haven’t noticed anybody looking at mine when driving, too busy trying not to scrape the kerbing of our narrow roads but had comments on how great the colour is when parked.
I love reading things like this. The minute I saw mamba it was love at first sight. I loved the amount of metallic 'flake' in it... the curves and lines of the car just look so stunning in it. I went through a lot of self doubt, especially when one of the SA told me it 'wasn't popular...' Now, despite not having mine YET, I am so happy I listened to the heart and went for it! Thats said..... I don't think theres even one colour that doesn't look good in it. Ive only seen two 'in the wild' flash past... each time they've made me jump in my seat and go 'its a green one aaaah look!!' so that must be a good sign ! Glad that you are finally getting to enjoy yours !! :like:
