Taycan had a bad launch. It shines on the 60ft, but it didn't have traction

I can't see tire temp or tire pressure. Should be at 32psi front, 34 rear. It has Trofeo RS tires and Calvin from Porsche was there so I hope they set it up correctly

Lucid.....wow.

Lucid.....wow.

This is a better test as it adds some handling into the equation:

As great as the Lucid is in these measures--- it does NOT have PAR and to me; thats the main game changer along with Porsche steering and overall feel. I do still have and at times want to add the Sapphire because I have the Weissach with no back seats. But there are literally only 2 cars available nationwide right now and used of course. Also isnt Lucid dead from a financial standpoint?

And I posted this video in my pic thread as well- the Cayenne triggers me in positivity. Fk I want more cars LOLOL. A Cayenne Turbo EV Coupe has me slightly tingling PAR and RWS with some interior love = me gusta mucho

The ZR1X is so impressive. If only it were good looking...

Well, first they would need to have Air suspension.

They are in fact running on steel springs. And the fact that they handle as well as they do, on steel springs, i think speaks volume about Lucids engineering work. Albeit, who knows how many of them are still at Lucid anymore.

Also isnt Lucid dead from a financial standpoint?

Infinite Saudi Arabia money glitch. Wouldn't worry about that.

But they have lost quite a few of engineers, some of the key ones. Quite a big brain drain happened there in 2025-early 2026.

Cayenne Turbo E... wow

Yes its on steel I know that and thats why I like PAR and mentioned as such ("to me" was used). And yes to your point impressive for steelies but it doesnt have air and PAR (do you have a car with it?)

Im not worried about Saudi money but here in the states their dealer network or lack of it and their rep hasnt always been the best so that gives me slight pause on the consideration as I have been looking at the two for sale.

Just look ar the suspension between the 2 cars. The Savagegeese one really showcases this

 

[Loe]

It's also pretty refreshing to hear they didn't have to cool down the car/battery in-between runs like they had to do with the Lucid.
