for sure but it is what it is right? I really think it is like buying an iPhone..hopefully its useful life is every 4 years vs 2 years like the iPhone but its pretty much the same commitment as getting an iPhone. you know a better one is coming. I have a 991.2 Targa GTS and honestly I can say I like it better than the 992 Targa 4S, I like my design and I like my buttons..
I love the Taycan Turbo S! (Currently own a 718 GT4)
As range anxiety gets less and less, I can’t help but wonder if the new anxiety is technology itself. “If I buy the TTS today, will it be trumped next week with a new, better battery, better range model next week? Overnight, my techno marvel loses some value. Likewise, if I buy the gas 992 Turbo S, does Ford or Chevy come out with a new EV that causes a gut punch with similar acceleration? This EV stuff is amazing in many ways…..but seems like computers…..your technology is only as good till the next update comes out. Then your old news and worth a lot less. Feedback?
