Those rear tail lights are way too large (and thus ugly)...

Yeah. Because they’re fake. TapeThose rear tail lights are way too large (and thus ugly)...
of course you are absolutely right and we all thought that the “mules” looked heavy and not as well proportioned as the 991.2 but in the end it became the sharpest looking 911 in the modern era........ so I think we just have to wait and see for the final outcome until we pass judgment. the body pannels major shapes are what we see but the body wrap is hiding other nooks and creases which will add to the design. in the photo above the car looks much more compact that non previous photos..... are these foreshortened or have all the other “official’ ones been elongated to keep us guessing.........There was the same mix of opinions with the 992 release. We watched the car for over 2 years, with bits of camo coming off here and there. In the end, that was the body of the car we'd been seeing all that time....
I've been saying this from the start. People that see this as a small Panamera are extremely narrow-minded.conclusion : more a 4-door 911 than anything else
some pictures from the articleNew review from co-pilot at FOS : https://de.motor1.com/news/358670/mitfahrt-im-porsche-taycan-2019/
Main points:
- charging at both (!!) sides of the car
- no frames around windows
- a lot of cockpit displays and touchscreens
- looks sleak
- rear seats comfortable - even with 1,88cm
- touch sensor for automatic opening the charging lid
- car start like warp speed from Star Trek
- nice sound

Lower CoG......been driving 911s for 30 years........with all due respect, what on earth does this have in common w/a 911?
Dee............I appreciate the humor & the banter here is fun.Lower CoG.
0-60 times.
And it's a Porsche.
Understood.........should have caught that......and the good Dr P was often quoted as saying the best place for CoG on a vehicle is.......'under the pavement'.Lol @GreggT!
Every technical driver knows what CoG is.
It's Center of Gravity (or centre of mass as mass is defined by gravity).
It's something that Porsche is proud of and use it as an advert, like the 0-60 times, 911 Turbo territory...
That's why I got this.
