Saw this on a PistonHeads forum. I believe it’s an exclusive event. I like it, but then I took a picture of my 991 GTS with the spoiler deployed. :lol:

Thoughts...

I actually don’t think that’s a big surprise. 992 looks good but hardly a game-changer and I think there are a lot of people who,like me, would happily change to a quality, sporty BEV.

Much as I love a lot about the Tesla I just can’t see myself in something so low rent looking (inside and out) and yet so expensive

I’m not surprised either.

Smithy, did your OPC take any guess at when customer Taycans might start arriving at UK OPCs?

No. To be fair I didn’t ask him. He said he learnt a lot about the upcoming Taycan at the 992 product knowledge trip in Majorca.
He knows I’m interested in both. I also got the impression he rather liked the new 992 as well.

I love the sound of these Porsche ‘product knowledge’ trips. What a great perk! :)
