Is it the Sport Turismo or regular Taycan? Must be missing the sound from the X3M. If you fancy a spot of old school Porsche petrol performance I am currently selling my 987 Boxster Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pesman 9,461 Posted November 22, 2023 Surgess ST19 chronograph. Blue changes in the light and the addition of the power reserve is cool for a manual wind. My favourite Chinese buy to date. Sent from my SM-G977B using Tapatalk 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you fancy a spot of old school Porsche petrol performance I am currently selling my 987 Boxster Yup 4S sport Turismo but slow compared to the X3M which is stage 2 . First thing I did was put the windows down in my car and listen to the turbos spool and engine ha like a big kid so will keep it a bit longer. Great cars them but 3 kids means I need boot space unfortunately Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't beat the sound of a proper combustion engine, especially one that pops and bangs when you rev it. Having had numerous BMW's and having a current 3 Series for my daily, I'd have a BMW over a Porsche any day, as the maintenance costs for Porsche is just crazy.

Having had numerous BMWs and Porsches (and Mercs, and VWs... I do like a German motor...), I'll always go back to Porsche, because... Porsche is Porsche. But I'm nowhere near ready to ditch the petrol in favour of electric yet. Give me the rumble of my old Cayenne V8 any day. Or the inimitable sound of an air-cooled flat 6 (sadly currently economically unviable due to the stupidly over-valued secondhand 911 market). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They gave me it for 2 days which was good of them but it’s not for me, even the fake noise didn’t make a difference . They thought they had sold me it but then when I handed the keys back the look on my face said otherwise. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
