Would you trade your Taycan for a Rolls-Royce Spectre?

Still waiting to the specs, but so far it looks amazing.

Wheels and rear roofline put me in mind of Audi.
I don't like the much shallower than usual front grille- it's lost a lot of the distinctive Rolls look- more like a Maybach.
But yes I'd be prepared to do a straight swap...I'd better get my order in now for the Taycans that I'll be trading it in for.

It appears that the same wankers who designed the Jaguar iPace had a hand (no pun intended) in designing the Spectre. One day perhaps they will come to understand that EVs do not need radiators and oversized grills to cool the motors. For sure I would take the Taycan, sans grill, everyday over the roller.

I placed my order today. Arrives Q4 23 looking forward to seeing the car in flesh at the factory later this year. An electric Rolls Royce makes huge sense and this thing will be the most comfortable car in the world. No its not replacing my Taycan but will replace my Range Rover.

They are very different cars so not an either or.
I wouldn't pay thet much for a car anyway but if I did a big milage on motorways (I don't) it would be great.
If I spent much time in towns or cities (I don't) it would be a monumental PITA that size.

For mainly me and my dog on country roads (normal) it wouldn't get close to the Taycan.
