Porsche doubles production of the electric car it hasn’t even released yet in run for Tesla’s market

https://www.cnbc.com/2019/01/23/this-is-...ing-up-for.html

seriously thinking about dropping a deposit right now.

the only thing thats gonna keep me from pulling the trigger on buying the taycan is if i can see myself parting with the bimmer or not. i don't like having 2 cars. 1 car, 1 truck is fine. 1 truck, 1 suv is cool.

but not 2 cars.

Thats a hard decision.

You have snow to deal with also.

So, if it were me, I'd have some kind of suv (wife's?) and then the fun luxury car.

Whatever brand combo that is.

Well, nothing says you have to buy it now.

Give it a couple years for them to work the kinks out.

That's what I would do.

I want another luxury sporty car to go with the Jag, but I have some retirement financial goals I want to reach first. And the Jag is still new to me, so I'm not ready to drive something else. And I want those EV cars to work the kinks out before I jump into that.

Don't rush. 2 cents.

An electric car with tailpipes? Must be fakes

Anyway, Electric is the way we are going no matter how much exxon mobil fights it. They'd be smart to invest heavy

remember, those are test cars. companies routinely use fake parts and vinyl wraps on their car in order to not reveal what the production design will look like.

When I used to work in the automotive industry at a tier 1 supplier we'd get pre-production test cars in all of the time. One of the most bizarre was when the Prowler was under development - we got the "prangler", a mash-up of a prowler and a jeep wrangler. It was hideous.
