Niacin posted:Hot take: ever since hearing the phrase 'Panamera Coupe', I just can't with the 991 or the 992. They're too big. Followed a 992? GT3 RS a couple days back on a drive home. Best-sounding engine there is, but without reservation, from the rear that vehicle appears massive. The tires are a lawl-size huge and while understandably so to achieve such levels of grip, it looks almost like something you'd expect to see on a 69' Camaro headed to the 'strip. Loved my time behind the wheel of a 981 GT4, which remains my current "halo" car had it not been so obviously ham-strung by the gearing.

Toe Rag posted:EVs are a whitewash OP. You have to drive 50k-100k km, depending on your country’s power generation, before you break even with an ICE car. In the last 5.5 years I have driven just over 45k km. I am in the US, so presumably the power generation is not particularly clean, and it would take me over 12 years to drive 100k km, possibly longer since I would avoid taking long trips in an EV. And then I’d have to replace the battery, resetting the break even calculus. If we had a green power grid (lol) then it would be a different story, but they are not a magic bullet for climate change. You could probably do more to stop climate change by having empty office towers turn off their lights and ban AC below 85F/30C. The efficiency of a power plant vs collection of individual ICE is wholly omitted from your remarks—further faulting an already bad take. Are you a petrol corpo?
