  1. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    EVs are truly software defined vehicles and if it’s one thing traditional car companies don’t know how to do…it’s software. Just thinking of how VW’s Cariad effort is going to hell in a hand basket makes me go :headbang:
  2. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Well in the past, did customers consider the utility value they get from purchasing a Porsche ICE vehicle over an Accord? I don’t believe they did. And I doubt that has changed when purchasing a Porsche EV over an Accord-category EV. Which is why when I hear statements regarding, how a Tesla is...
  3. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Does anybody buy a Porsche (ICE or EV) with price bargain in mind? ?
  4. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    I wouldn't call Tesla the Apple of car industry. Apple HW devices are known for excellent build quality, fit and finish. Tesla cars are not known for either of those characteristics.
  5. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Same here. And I once wrote SW which runs on the Model S and X (or at least used to, dunno if they swapped it out). My main issue with the Taycan actually has been related to hydraulics (air in the brake lines). Driving it is like getting the best of ICE and EV worlds whereas driving the Tesla...
  6. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    If price is what you are indexing on, you shouldn’t be looking at a Porsche, regardless of whether you are buying an ICE car or EV. As for the rest, Dave’s post is spot-on.
  7. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    Trust me, that's how I felt too when I purchased my 1st Model S. Its one thing about new vehicle models that hasn't changed when going from ICE to EV (except HW gremlins became SW gremlins).
  8. Porsche Considering 'Exciting' Joint Projects With Apple

    The whole Apple car project just got shut down…again. Unlikely Porsche will get anything tangible from this exercise.
  9. Porsche Considering 'Exciting' Joint Projects With Apple

    This is just PR fluff that they have been recycling since last few years. Don’t read much into it.
  10. Taycan Turbo S vs. Model S Plaid - really by this much!?

    Tesla decisively proved once for all that EVs can be aspirational and desirable vehicles, period. Before that the mainstream buyer thought of them as compromised products.
  11. Scared to ask... anyone tempted by Model S Plaid?

    What I didn’t realize was my Lexus could beat the Model S plaid in a 0-60 race:giggle:….while the Tesla takes 10 seconds to get into Cheetah stance ??‍♂️ (after 15 minutes of pre conditioning). http://www.motortrend.com/cars/tesla/model-s/2021/2022-tesla-model-s-plaid-first-test-review/ Even...
