Audi moved faster than Tesla because Audi was the first to develop a Tri Motor setup. I also didn't know the 2 speed transmission for the J1 platform was developed by ZF

Doesn't it look like a Opel Speedster?

The only non EV Porsche that interests me is the GT3/GT3RS for the same reasons you mentioned. NA, 9000 revs symphony is very appealing. Dual clutch, forced induction is what pushed me to BEV. A Lotus Exige with a GT3 power train would be a dream

On another note, when so many 1000+ HP EVs will be coming online in the future, what is the benefit of buying a Bugatti? Eventually Ricmac will stick their propulsion system into the Bugatti anyway

You're very fortunate to have driven this. The performance of the car it's incredible, but I don't like anything about the exterior/interior. Very exciting automotive company. Rimacs benefit is the R&D that will trickle down into future Porsches EVs.

I'm pretty sure it will share the same platform as the 718 EV I love the release timeline Audi's Next R8 Will Be Called Rnext

Do you see any room for the model 3 other than a Performance? Seems Y is the same car just more functional

You make very good points that I agree with I see Porsche as the R&D arm of VAG that recoups the cost by sharing with the rest of the family. J1 being a small example by selling a piece to Audi for the E-Tron GT. Sharing and scale is more important than ever

Would you invest in Porsche as a public company? Will the brand be diluted? IMO Ferrari going public diluted the brand. VW confirms plan to list Porsche sports-car brand

The suspension is total garbage in the 3/Y. Not sure how anyone that has any understanding of automobiles or experience in a decent car can drive these and fall in love with Tesla. You also feel like you're riding in a tin can. The only good part of the 3/Y is the low dash and Porsche like...

Not to derail the conversation, but there are cultural difference in regions with cars. A large GMC Yukon with 15 cup holders is an American car, not so much for Switzerland. There is a reason the VW ID3 is in the European market and not the US market. How can you can say cultural/regional...

I never said I didnt like the car. I actually do like it, especially the new headlights. I do wish BMW would do a pure EV platform. I have an understanding of the Chinese market from people I know in China that work with different OEMs and develop auto manufacturing factories. The Chinese...

As a rule of thumb, big grills and heavy tech with captains chair rear seating is for China. 31" 8k theater screen is China I really don't like the platform sharing architecture for all drive trains BMW is using

I agree and I really hope you're right. Let see what Rimac technology spills into the 718. I assume a good amount. Yes it's chintzy. The P2 is that cheap price point car. The Polestar 1 is an incredible car, high quality, but $150k. You sit in that car and its just built right. That being...

So far all of the Polestars concepts look very close to production. Even the Precept CEO was the head designer so final product will be right

The Polestar O2 will be out before the Tesla Roadster and that won't even complete with the 718. I actually really like it.

I think 1000hp will be reserved for a halo 918 replacement. 911 will have to remain the top dog for Porsche and I don't see that being 1000hp

I really wish they would allow PTS sooner in the Model release.

Knowing you, it will be parked next to your Neptune Blue haha 5thPcar
