Lol yep, like what happened with Taycans. Now the market is flooded with them and no one wants em. The depreciation was horrific.

Bringing out an improved model didn't help. But just think, you can have a porsche for less than 40k with low fuel costs.
Just keep £1200 aside for a service
Tyres don't kick themselves.

Porsche still think it's a 100k car, so that's how everything on it is priced. There is a reason they don't sell, even for far less than 40k.

the thing is, it is still an incredibly well put together car that oozes luxury and goes like stink with general running costs of naff all.
I could probably swallow the stupid service costs if I got the car for such a good price....... OTOH... do you have to take it to Porsche ? won't any EV specialist be able to work on it?

I imagine you'd probably want a Porsche used approved warranty on it, so you'd likely want to take it to Porsche for servicing etc.
I wouldn't want to own one without a manufacturer warranty on it.
That's not controversial

I don't hate the interior. At least they have done something different and what looks to be ergonomic. So much better than the cream-coloured, featureless interiors with a giant screen we are seeing for literally every other manufacturer.
The only manufacturer that seem to be making cars with interiors that make sense are Porsche.

Porsche seems to be one of the few brands that have designers who do or can take a step back and see how things are fitting together - so many cars these days it just leaves me mind blown no one took a step back at some point and raised concerns - not sure if due to the way companies are run, the mentality of the people involved in designing the car or a mixture of factors or what. So many cars are only a few tweaks, or just a little more money spent, between dog **** and good.
However, I watched the Top Gear "first look" video and the thing that irked me the most was the way that the key fob has been inserted into into the dash to start it. Call me boring, but that seems like a horrible bit of design from a practical perspective. Means the key can't be attached to a keyring, has to be kept separate from other keys, and is less elegant than normal keyless entry systems where you can just keep the key in your pocket. Seems to contradict the supposed "practicality" they were espousing, and just struck me as the sort of design choice that would be made by someone who likes shiny trinkets but has never actually used a car before.
I never noticed those before but now you pointed them out

In the press shots they went out of their way to make sure you couldn’t see them through a combination of angles and lighting. But in the walk around videos they stick out clear as day….
isn't that potentially a benefit to the aero , no cusp on bodywork , so should be appreciated, like those audi wing mirror cameras;
.. a rectractable wiper cover on the other hand
the heaviest ever ferrari 2.2t is more the damming point .. everything else can be absolved
e: little did I know - perhaps either of them is AI
e2: maybe there is a hitler rant too
e3: pope could have a new side hustle reviewing ev's

batteries are not light but comparing a 2 seater supercar to what is essentially a high performance family suv is hardly apples to apples comparison.
also (and this is my ignorance talking and I suppose I could Google)
are the weights of ICE vehicles including a full tank of fuel? because an EV weighs the same regardless of if fully charged or flat battery.
