I agree, besides the whole thing looks chunky, like what could have been the concept for the GMC Sierra interior … I’m not feeling this design language.

Baseless

Luckily (or rather unfortunately), there’s never a shortage of invisible hands to keep arsenals busy and budgets bleeding.

Ahaha, that’s nothing — Porsche would look like a thrift store next to what defense contractors casually charge. This whole project would be a capital paradise for them.

Fear and uncertainty should suffice

Not surprising at all. There’s big and easy money to be won — no way Porsche SE is going to pass up this opportunity of a lifetime! Porsche SE et al always home in on wherever money flows. With €150 billion for European rearmament and Germany’s €1 trillion earmarked for military upgrades...

? … Don’t make that a thing

I like the colors and materials mashup — it’s distinctive and works to great effect and quite tastefully so. The car’s exterior color is echoed in the silver interior accents, while the brown leather interior complements the neodyme exterior details. The carbon mirrors and black accents complete...

It’s a sad state, really. Resets don’t tend to happen voluntarily — they’re often only coaxed by life-altering events. Historically, when trade decline, skill erosion, and societal fragmentation happen in concert, no nation has fully recovered. And knowing that it takes generations for new...

China is merely reclaiming its historical position as the world’s largest economy — which it held for centuries. Its internal stability and economy were severely weakened by the wars waged by the British, and it was only surpassed by the U.S. in 1913. And if you look closely, you’ll see they’ve...

12.5% of Porsche AG’s shares were floated as non-voting public shares, making Porsche AG hardly a public company. VAG needed to unlock capital to finance the electrification transition of the group. Additionally, spinning off Porsche AG gave the P-P family a stronger hold over the company by...

To some extent, Porsche is like Hermès. Luxury houses make their money from ready-to-wear, leather goods, perfumes, and accessories, as Porsche does with the Cayenne, Macan, and — dare I say — even the **Taycan and lower-trim 911s. Classic bags like the Birkin and Kelly are limited (but not the...

Ahahaha, I just don’t know … by the incessant and hysterical complaints going on here, one might think that it’s the “wives” doing exactly what they do best … finding something to complain and panic about, no matter what, and with little regard for “solutions” …

It could also be due to the grid, with the power supplier employing peak shaving to reduce peak load or demand, which in turn lowers the charging rate. To compensate, fast chargers have backup battery systems and, in some cases, ancillary solar panels (though not all do). These help offset the...

Porsche has traditionally differentiated the aerodynamics of it’s higher trims, with elements that cannot be optioned on lower trims.

A few questions: What kind of concessions are we talking about, can you provide a few examples? In what capacity were you at the table; and what exactly is not for free? What does being part of the CCP apparatus entails?

From my limited understanding, I believe the rear vents are rather secondary or a byproduct of the so-called vertical side deflectors, often mounted or integrated into the side back of the trunk. These deflectors manipulate the airflow and apparently significantly reduce drag and improve...

You are right — posturing (as old as humans), is primarily directed toward one’s immediate environs. Social media, for those who care, simply amplifies the reach. However, rebadged base models won’t cut it — that’s for the “poor”. While, NFTs aren’t physical and require much more active effort...

The thing is, though — as the app seems to work just fine for some of us, regardless of platform — it might be just a database/server issue (which happens to host your data). I would give it some time.

With shifting winds, they’d be wise to review their plans. Between China’s slowdown, the US (once again their primary market) cutting green initiatives, and the promise of a free-for-all market, an ICE Macan — even if it feels like a step backwards — might not be such an illogical move. Guys...
