Some might argue that was the American stock market pre-1929 or maybe the subprime mortgages issued in the 00's, but I could be convinced that it's really a limited run 911 intended to be bought solely by rich people who also have 10 other cars they hardly drive. My dad bought an S/T from a...

And, of late, software and computer chip technology... which is why we've stayed ahead of the curve for so long, the defense contracting being the reason why we had such a head start. Cars are great, but it's the technology capturing and storing the energy for them that will matter.

Yeah... or is it that the "RS" completely ruins the aesthetic of what is my favorite car and for what? Nobody is tracking Spyders and the non-RS is already superior for road duty...

FWIW - the Apple CarPlay connectivity issues have resolved for me, and I have had nearly no PCM glitches or anything in the past 6 months or so. I know it was a rocky start there, but I just don't view tech as being a negative anymore. It's not a positive, but I didn't buy the car for its tech...

Nice job - you’re right. Looks like the Audi A6 Sportback etron. A6 etron sportback article

Looks like a BMW to me too. Can't tell if it's a sedan, SUV or crossover. The i5M is supposed to come out next year - over 1000HP, etc. Kinda looks 5-series sized to me, so I'm guessing based on that and the dash that it's an i5 or some derivation thereof...

That source of unending funds that's building a 110 mile mirrored skyscraper in the middle of the desert and that just had to borrow $11 billion for budget overruns? That one? p.s. - if I never post on here again, you know who got me.

I'm doing the only thing I can control... buying and driving an EV and telling others of my great experience in doing so. As a "car guy" whose opinion is valued by others around me on this topic, maybe that's good enough. Someone like @f1eng with his background driving an EV matters obviously...

Guy drives a Macan so he's already compromising on a lot as it relates to looks and drive quality relative to a Taycan. Nobody is going compliment the looks of your Macan EV, and you're unlikely to want to grab the keys to the Macan just go to for a spirited drive. His priorities are very...

No doubt. I'm jaded by social media, wherein anything having to do with EVs is quickly met with a cascade of misinformation and lies, all purportedly from "car guys." Of course, all of their (mis)information comes from media sources beholden to our friends at BP/Shell/Exxon, etc.

Truly there's a lot of overlap in that group. Also hard to determine whether those concerned about cobalt mining are just astroturf groups propped up by #1. Think about all of the gas station owners, auto mechanics, emissions inspectors, brake repair shops, transmission repair shops, car...

I did the same. I said please put me down first on the list for the very first EV Boxster Spyder sold in Austin. I got a sincere reply back that no such waitlist exists.

It's definitely the regional aspect or maybe just his affectations... I know it's your language that we've co-opted, but maybe it's ours now because we stole it and, despite a couple of wars, you couldn't make us give it back. ?

First off - very nice spec from Pitt, especially the Aurum Mission Es. Second, Brad Pitt probably drives a Taycan because it's the best EV one can buy. Of all middle-aged men on God's green earth, he's the last person to need a sports car to feel attractive or alive. Also, he has great...

Fair enough. I suppose I can afford to be less judgmental... especially at this time of year.

This GT3 Touring just came through Porsche Austin. I think one could do worse in terms of color...

Was at a basketball game on Friday and there was a guy rocking a Ferrari hat and a Ferrari branded jacket. There's no way anybody can pull this off, ever. If you don't own a Ferrari, dressing like that is just sad (like Joey from Friends with his Porsche outfit) and if you do - jeez, that's a...

Schmee is one of those people that makes me realize that taste is inherently subjective given the inverse relationship between how popular he is and how much he irritates me. Everything about the guy bugs me, even though he seems like a perfectly nice enough person. The cloying nerdiness, the...

My only complaint on the haptic screen is that it makes the interior a good candidate to look super dated not too long from now in the sense of the current time trying to anticipate what the future will look like. Kind of like KITT. I think the rest of the dash is great, so I would have...

Depends entirely on the looks for me. The great Achilles heel of the Panamera (for me) is the long, raised front end to accommodate the engine bay, which will obviously not be an issue for the EV unless they offer both ICE and EV versions and keep the looks the same. Taste is obviously...
