Then, it is even worse because apparently Porsche hasn't "adapted" to the Plaid. Smiley
I know that the Taycan is in a different league, quality-wise but still...I think that the Taycan should really offer more. Smiley

 

The performance target they want to exceed for the turbo GT is their own turbo S. Porsche never 'chase' others, they set the benchmark themselves and let others to try and match them. 

Succeeded, but the product isn't a very useful car, as it is without backseats. The Plaid at least have a full interior but have less performance. It's up to Elon now to see if he will go down the mad path to take out the Plaid's backseats in order to match the Taycan GT. 

So the Taycan turbo GT has become Taycan line's GT3RS. A limited scope car that's not for the mass market but for a very small niche.

The Taycan turbo GT is a car when the engineers has more say than the accountants. We should be thankful that once in a while, the accountants take a backseat at Porsche.
