    The Macan EV is not as bad as I thought

    This is the sports car problem. A bit of an exaggeration, but its like the Countach window.

    The Macan EV is not as bad as I thought

    Have you tried getting a ticket from a parking ticket booth in a parking garage? I have to put the car in park and open my door just to get a ticket, or pull a cirque du soleil to get my body out of the car

    The Macan EV is not as bad as I thought

    This is when I had my RS E-Tron GT which is a much softer car than the Taycan. The B pillar, ingress/egress, tight interior, lack of room to stow anything, long front hang, low front (going up driveways at angle & constantly lifting the front) lack of rear seating room, and the dreaded ticket...

    The Macan EV is not as bad as I thought

    I had a Macan EV loaner for a week and loved it. It's a much better daily driver than a Taycan, although I never saw the Taycan as a daily driver anyway, due to its many inconveniences. The NVH was surprisingly good. It was nimble in spirited canyon driving, felt smooth on the horrible LA...

    Macan vs iX3 & GLC EV ride quality

    Other than a 7 series, every other BMW suspension makes me nauseous. You feel every road imperfection. I found the Macan EV a blast to drive spirited. It felt light and more nimble in the canyons compared to the Taycan Drove the R2 with adaptive dampers and it was a very smooth ride, much...

    EV throttle response

    The Audi Etron GT and Taycan do not have the typical EV throttle response and kick you mention. Even a Fiat 500e will have that kick up 20mph. I almost believe Porsche tuned it this way to be more like traditional ICE

    Official: Manthey Kit for the Turbo GT with Weissach (Nordschleife lap record: 6:55.533)

    Its different, but look how clean the new front fenders look? Its an entire, carbon fiber, newly constructed piece.

    Like the wing brackets, cap the front intake under the headlights. At least make it look OEM

    2027 Taycan gets E-Shift, larger battery and much more - new model year!

    The instrument cluster update looks nice, but they eye tracker will need to be retrofitted on day one

    More details seen here. As cool as the Manthey kit is, I wish it would look more factory instead of an afterthought, stick on

    The splitter has some flex so these cables keep them in place. These are on the 911 Manthey kit as well

    Exactly right. They linked it from the trunk lid to the CF reinforcement bars in the trunk The ducktail was removed ducktail in order to PPF it. I wonder if Manthey used the section under the hole to screw for that reinforcement piece to secure the trunk? They also use double reinforced...
