Just wait until some of us find out we are on the second year production list. Talk about delayed gratification!

if you look at the these side skirts (from a older mule) you might think that they´re finished but they´re quite diferent than the less camouflage mules we´ve seen on the last few months....so....cars may have camouflage in certain places where we think it´s final but in reality it´s not.

It's not a family sedan, it's a coupe with rear doors. Whenever I hear 'family sedan" I always think of something like a Honda Accord or Toyota Camry, and I really hope that's not the demographic Porsche is targeting. I somehow doubt it is.

I too hope it hasn't got a trunk, and I wouldn't really expect it to if I was buying it.

Without, I think it would have more of the concept look from the roof to the rear. However, I'll be a little more realistic that I can't imagine a 4 door coupe with only a frunk in the US

It would indeed look a lot better without the trunk, I still hope it doesn't have it.

And it's supposed to be a sports car, which just happens to have rear doors. This is a Porsche, not a Toyota Camry. If it only has a frunk, well, it's not supposed to prioritise practicality. More attention needs to be paid to the looks, in my view, and to the cornering/acceleration.

I doubt that the mules have a trunk and the production car doesn‘t...

Spoiler UP....if you dont like this i´m afraid the final design of the rear spolier is not going to be differnet.

Beg to differ
This old mule is covered in rear false panels and camouflage
It’s hard to believe they’d remove all that and leave the spoiler as is

But.... time will tell

 

[Paulo]

fake panels/padding/tape are not the same thing as an essential aerodynamic component like the spoiler.

 

[Paulo]

Specially when that spoiler is also connected to the brakes.

Maybe it opens that way, but the Taycan could still have the Mission E rear duct

Yes, that’s a good point
I concede on that one
An expensive exercise if it turns out a throwaway
(unless their using old stock technology)

Agree

 

[TheSnape]

Agree

Yeah, it only means that the operation of the spoiler is different to the Mission E, not its eventual shape or the shape of the rear.

Porsche wouldn't market the Mission E so much for the Taycan unless it looked very similar indeed to the finished car

I agree with you here. From what I could tell (mechanically), is that the spoiler rises with 2 posts and stays horizontally flat when risen similar to the concept on the Carrera GT. For the Taycan, it doesn't appear that it's mechanically the same.
