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

    Yes. I wonder what would be like too. Weissach only gets one charge port and the only J1.2 that has open side vents

    Me too! I assume it makes it a little stiffer. The dealer got the memo on the product, but no other details yet

    Thats great for track but beyond slow on the streets. This is a 9 sec quarter mile car that can also rip in the canyons. GT3RS handles better, but straight line is not there, plus its $450k

    What if you don't have 4 people in your car and there isn't a coupe with this type of performance?

    The stupid battery weight penalty is the issue, no way around it. You're probably right about the downforce. In Sport Plus it's already a clearance nightmare. If the steering and suspension tuning was just in Sport plus I would do it. It needs to be a little more firm

    I'm estimating it will be at least $100k for parts. Hard to stomach that with a Taycan

    It's marketing and shows the teams capabilities. I'm interested in the suspension and steering tuning. Maybe the wheel and tire setup too. I'm going to find out about that from my dealer

    Nordschleife lap record: 6:55.533 What the kits includes and can be installed individually, unlike the GT3 that needs to purchases as a whole.

    My First Taycan- Turbo GT Weissach!! Pics and Owner Review / Thoughts!!

    Sport Plus is supposed to be sharper steering. Have you tried Sport mode in the canyons to compare to Sport Plus? I feel more weight in Sport mode I don't think you ever drove it in Normal, but its incredibly smooth and luxurious due to PAR. It feels like any other Taycan.

    PAR is optimized for aggressive driving in Sport plus mode. PAR is always on, by the extra lean/pitch/dive in Normal Mode disengages after 93mph, but in Sport and Sport Plus PAR itself does not disengage. It's part of the driving dynamics @Vision can you share how my car car felt in Sport Plus...

    Long time EV owner going to the darkside? Needs encouragement!

    Service is a dealer issue, less Porsche or manufacturer. My Audi e-tron GT (J1.1 Taycan Turbo) would be booked next day, with loaner, work order completed in 24/48 hours. Depending on how many Taycans are in for Service, my dealer is around 3 to 4 days turn around. Some dealers much longer...
