I was at PEC LA (CT4 delivery day!) the day they rolled in the Mission R and my wife told me that they pushed in something special. amazing machine and porsche is doing an amazing job with the e-lineup! its very small. Looks like a taycan front end and has the 911 roofline.

Will this be in clubsport trim only? If so I’m guessing what 300-400k?

also why 2025 if it’s already so buttoned up?

Maybe it needs to be “mass-ified” first to be launched as a 100-150K compact sports car?

There is no hint that this will be mass marketed tho. This appears to be a club sport only model.

but I was guessing it would be the base research for the boxster/cayman electeric

Car looks amazing but how can you derive an opinion on its performance while limited to 60 mph? Autox maybe but on a track? Can’t believe any of that aero is even doing much at that speed.

PEC LA is pretty tight so I think 60 will give you a good idea. They also don’t want someone to trash their car! Going 60 through a tight corner is good.
