My RS E-Tron GT I have the upgrade to give it full power, all the time, with a little extra HP. It would be interesting to see how the Turbo GT would be if it had the full 1092 all the time. The Push to Pash only increases the HP to 1019hp for 10sec, 4sec cool down. Nonsense way of doing it

Anyone surprised? Monster numbers for the Sapphire

I expect a record with the Sapphire. UDrag is a brilliant course compared to just a 1/4mile

I was shocked how dark it looks when not in bright lights. Hard to see how beautiful the metallic flake is

This guy thinks he can beat the Sapphire with his 170, which comes down to his reaction time. As he's further explaining, he starts to tell us why ICE cars are inferior, especially the Charger because you need to have the most perfect conditions for it function

It's the exact same hardware. The new 2 chamber suspension is developed by Porsche, including the new hydraulic active suspension competent. This suspension is for the luxury segment of VAG, including Taycan, E-Tron GT, Panamera, Bentley. It will make it's way into other VAG cars as well...

If I had a lot more money, I wouldn't mind losing that much money on a car. I really want a GMA T50, but can't afford it. I've been wholesaling cars for a while and all of these Evs including the Sapphire will only lose more value in time. I prefer to hedge this by leasing at a reasonable rate...

VAGs production numbers, before the release of Taycan and E-Tron GT was 4x Taycan to E-Tron GTs. As we have really dug into the J1 platform more, the only difference with the Taycan and E-Tron GT is software tuning. They are the exact same hardware

Unbelievable! That's close to Rimac territory Have you tried to run it with lower tire pressure?

Its very fast and I'm not comparing to Plaid/Sapphire, but the 1/4mile is very different than the 60-130 times. My RS E-Tron GT stock is 0-60 at 3sec, 1/4mile at 11sec, but my 60-130 is 8.1sec. From a dig the Model 3 performance would win, from a roll of 60mph, it stands no chance. Teslas is...

Very true. With Porsche, it's best to buy a 911 or 718. Other than that, it makes no financial sense

Porsche dealers didn't get the memo that they sell rebaged Q8s and Q5s. Just because the salesmen wear a Porsche MotorSport vest, doesn't make them important. As great as the Taycan is, they values get smoked on them. This was always known by Porsche Financial because the Turbo S lease always...

We joke, but a friend did that and still didn't get an allocation. Dealer screwed him. Even worse another friend did that with Ferrari to get an SP3 allocation, bought every pig car they had, dealer screwed him at the end too.

You're correct on the Taycan leases. I see lease terms for the Turbo S, but I don't think they will lease the Turbo GT due to the residuals. I'm hoping Porsche is going to be realistic with the 2025s. When I was getting a Turbo (pre pandemic) I was getting 18% off, $7500 lease credit, $4500...

Lol. I watch it every couple of weeks and it did deal the deal for me. I've listened to every possible interview with the engineers, how the benchmarked , the thought they put into the Sapphire. Which is why I want it, not for the astronomical lease.
