    I assume the Manthey aero addresses the front end grip issue? Send you a DM on IG

    Is Audi trying to one up Ferrari (in fugly)?

    I just saw the pre prototypes of the Q7 Etron and the Q8 (ICE) It looks like Audi is going with this design language with their cars. They aren't playing it safe anymore. The Q8 took some cues from the Lamborghini Lanzador Audi needed to do something

    All sold means sold to dealers and that's because they are forced to take them

    Ferrari Luce EV

    I'm even more convinced this was the scrapped Apple EV just sold to Ferrari.

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

    Yes the Sapphire has modified suspension. The Savagegeese video does a good job explaining why the Taycan suspension is better and even why the Sapphires torque vectoring isn't as good as the Porsche mechanical rear differential. I'm tempted to put the $25k deposit to put my mind at ease...

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

    $25k deposit and you can drive a Sapphire at a Studio. I sat in a Sapphire and drove a Grand Touring (850hp). It sits higher, more luxurious, less sporty interior, tons of room, good build quality/material/Fit & Finish. There are a out 150 built it looks like. Drove the Grand Touring and...

    Taycan tuned: 950 hp through software tuning

    I assume that means at 40%, both the Turbo GT and the Turbo S have the power output? Just at much higher SOC the Turbo GT gets the additional power?

    Taycan tuned: 950 hp through software tuning

    I think Porsche is using lower SOC as the marketing for consistency and to under promise, over deliver. At 37% I'm SOC, I'm getting 937hp over boost For the AMG, I would like to see the real power rating at lower and higher SOC. Plus Mercedes & BMW can't consistently put the power down from...

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    I saw 2 of them in Dubai on a showroom floor. They are really good looking in person and both were sold.

    New Rival: AMG GT - 4 Door Coupe - 1169hp

    Thats the previous suspension. The new Active Suspension uses hydraulic actuators on each wheel, like the Porsche Active Ride. Porsche uses the ZF system

    New Rival: AMG GT - 4 Door Coupe - 1169hp

    A fully equipped 63 is about the same price as a Turbo GT and a fully optioned Turbo S It does have an Active Ride like Taycan. Even some Chinese OEMs have them now. As Active Ride becomes more ubiquitous, it will come down to how its turned.

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

    More up close video of the Signal Green Manthey. The quality and installation looks good. They also put reflectors instead of the fake vents on the rear bumper

    Turbo GT front lip replacement

    Yes I'm very picky. I plan on changing it once a year as routine maintenance. I like to keep close to concours level as possible. Even seat rails have no dust. My RS E-Tron GT was practically flawless after 3 years, 36k miles with only a couple of swirl marks that someone else did.

    Ferrari Luce EV

    I like it for a daily driver EV for $70k. I think its cool looking, but not for a Ferrari at 10x the price it should be. The configuration took is live. Pretty Granular...
