Petrolhead changes his mind

I'm still a petrolhead myself but currently in the process of swapping my Subaru STI for a Taycan 4S.

Looked and test drove the Taycan a few years back and it is a lovely car, just couldn't quite make the finances work out.

All I can say is that they have dropped hugely in price (not necessarily in value!) (2021 car). Won't be paying much more on finance than my Subaru - although it'll be extending the term significantly - but hopefully the reduced running costs will be a bonus!

That's the EV I would like (in the Turismo guise). Currently driving an ancient BMW 3 series touring (which I like a lot), but BMW's current EV offerings don't really inspire me.
Can't afford either so it's a bit moot, but I can dream.
Of course, the guy in the video hasn't actually changed his mind. From what he says, he views the EV as just a tool for work, his ICE for fun and he's got both. If we all did that, it would make the problem worse and put an even bigger strain on resources and the environment - it's not very environmentally friendly until he uses his EV for everything and gets rid of the ICE. Keeping a car on the road just for the sound it makes is a bit bl00dy weird, if you ask me...
If you want a Porsche then it needs the aircooled flat six 3.3, what a fun car to drive and without any complexity but will cost you more for a thirty year old motor than a brand new tayan. A lovely example here

The biggest insult to Ferdinand has to be the cayenne , likewise the E pace to Jaguar where both are not in the spirit of their founders.
