Why so much hate? I think it’s amazing and is Porsche yet again leading the charge, (forgive the pun). The noise is from a race car without sound deadening.

I’m a petrolhead and I love EV’s, (although I am a convert). As it stands, they are different but if this is the face of things to come, than that can only be a good thing can’t it?

Our Taycan has soul, so I’ll bet that GT4e has it in spades.
At the end of the day we’re all different… you’re happy with your Taycan and love EV’s doesn’t mean everyone else should too.
My osteopath got a Model 3 last year, loved it. This year realised he couldn’t get his dogs in it and now has a Discovery. He did take me for a short spin in the 3. The acceleration in isolation is omg quick but the car as a whole did nothing for me.
Now my neighbour swapped his Panamera for Taycan. Around the same time I got my GT4. The Taycan is serious impressive to look at and sit in imo. Again serious performance, you can’t help but be impressed but how it goes about it’s business but I like the sound of an engine working away, adding drama and soul that the n/a F6 does.
He liked it too when I took him for a spin.
I have driven an EV myself, as a daily I’d be happy with one I think… for something to get up and drive at 5am on a Sunday morning or on a road with enthusiast friends I prefer my GT4 which even a only 6yrs old (or even the 718) is in todays reality is rapidly becoming, if not already considered, old school.
