I still think they had to remove the tach to implement next gen CarPlay, but we will find out soon enough.

That is highly probable, but I personally do not see that as an advantage. I am old-school as I prefer my sports cars to be low tech and lightweight.

I think you are missing the fact that 2024 for cayenne was the facelift. You want to compare 2023 to 2024. For example 2023 cayenne gts to 2025 cayenne gts price increase was $17k. My 2023 was $109k base price and the new one is $127k. Thats almost 16% of price increase. Yes there was no 2024 but thats whats likely to happen to many 911 trims like TTS and GT3 with the facelift.

I’m of the opinion that base to base price increase will be 7% or so with GT3 and TTS doubling that % increase. TTS might be even more than that due to flagship status and I’m sure porsche will come out some outstanding performance figures for it when its unveiled next year.

A minimum of a 10% increase is the number of my SA continues to state and he has been with the marque for over 40 years. We’ll see…

I heard that only the Coupe and Cab (base and GTS) will be released this year and that the Targa won't be released until 2025 or 2026.

Anyone heard the same?

That helps used car prices but a pretty big hit for someone looking for a new car.

So are they going to continue to build 992.1s (some trims) alongside the .2s? And continue to tag them as model year 2024s? They can't put these other models on hiatus, and not sell them at all. Porsche is trying to rake in all the cash they can and run the assembly line to the max while demand is strong, so they can't just stop producing some variants until next year.

Traditionally Porsche keeps the older sub-models in production while the newer models are rolled out.

Porsche is a business… like every business they will price their products in such a way that makes them the most margin. If they can sell every car they build for 10% more, they’ll do it. It’s supply and demand brother, can’t be mad about it… without capitalism this would be a Lada forum and Bore Scoring would be the least of our worries…

This is quite possibly true. Also using the same tach as the Tycan contributes to cost savings (not just in shared parts, but also in engineering, design, development, and testing).

That is probably part of the reason, it is also cheaper for Porsche, and as a bonus most consumers think that all screens is an upgrade.

It’s kind of sad because all the dashes have no soul to them anymore. If you covered the badge on the steering wheel, you almost can’t tell the difference between all the brands. It’s a giant rectangle screen for the driver, and a giant rectangle screen in the center.

Porsche will still find a way to charge us for a colored tachometer.

Good question...if the GTS still has a turbo, which seems to be the rumour, I should be able to tune it close to 650hp bringing me near the stock Turbo S power of a 992.1.. GTS is also much lighter and RWD which makes it a bit more fun and nimbler on the track in my opinion..
