He loves them and result, a 911 beater that can carry golf clubs! Shame the charging infrastructure doesn'tmeet my needs. One day....
I also watched it last night, have the whole series on auto record, think it’s new and it’s actually a very good down to earth review of all that is current with EV.

Fair enough. So hopefully they’ll sell that showroom model in ‘x’ months and hopefully for no more than list price. :)

I think because they will sell them above list, the more “showroom” models the better… 🤔

Its 9” longer than the available space in my garage.

My Macan only just fits in as it is.
Correct, size does matter and it's huge which is a shame as it's really nice. If Porsche could only shrink it slightly they'd have an amazing family wagon in a segment traditionally dominated by the RS4.

8 weeks as a demo and then the sticker with the price and spec is in the window. 😉

Thought somehow that OPC cannot sell a ‘new’ car above list, but can sell a second hand car for whatever they like? 🤔

I did see somewhere rumours of a shrunken version to run alongside EV Macan as lower stance helps with range etc

Yep. They just pre-reg the car and sell above list knowing anyone wanting one will be waiting a couple of months. Kind of wish they would’ve had a demo of a CT before they used mine as a showroom car for a week and let someone try out the back seats prior to giving it to me.

My CT has just returned from the detailers :D
