CGX car nut:JoeRockhead:Performante out, Taycan in. Is that a record?
Probably the Mercedes-AMG E63 is being replaced.
Not over the next 18 months…

What have you smoked today? 
Performante is my fun car, no replacement possible (all that Turbo charged, muted crap is not for me, no matter how fast). 
EV as a Performante replacement? I am not senile yet.

Would you consider one after now having driven it ?
As much as I consider getting a Tesla... Seriously, for me, an EV is a computer on four wheels. Gadget fun, no driving fun. The EV novelty wears off fast in my opinion. Porsche has, of course, achieved a different level of quality vs. Tesla and the drive feel is sportier as well but you can feel what you are driving and thats the problem. I still think the Taycan is the most attractive EV money can buy at this moment but this is not something I would consider for me as a fun car, maybe as a business car (if the lease is attractive and I get incentives).
I also have no comparison to the Tesla driving assist/autonomous driving systems because, simply put, I was never interested in this stuff.
To be fair, I will give an honest opinion once I get the chance to drive the Turbo/Turbo S on the track, different beasts of course.

Well, cannabis is legal here now, but the smiley indicates it was just a joke.

EnglishManInNY:620hp for the next Turbo S would be frankly v disappointing
I heard this number a long time ago but I wouldn't expect more than 640.
Facelift hybrid will be more interesting in my opinion.

Since the GT2RS needed water sprayers for over ~650hp, I wouldn’t expect more than this...

GT2RS do have different turbos thought. Bigger ones that pushes more air and heat. Think the turbos are running out of breath for the normal turbo engines.
The target one should look for is actually the Turbo S Exclusive, Porsche only managed 27 extra HP, from 580 to 607.
620 almost seems inline with the Exclusive's 607, as it's already 40hp than the old Turbo S.
ALDO:I have a video but don't want to post here. Maybe RC will claim I am dealing with potatoes. So I just made a screenshot to show you the odometer
No, you're just dealing with a lack of English language. 
Doesn't matter, I'm good.

schmoell:Thanks for the info Aldo ! Wonder, if need to rebuild one of the garages to get the new Turbo in :)
This is actually a good point you're making, some garages are really not wide enough.

New Turbo S gets PSE option which adds mostly some turbo whining/hissing noises.
Weight increases by 50 kg.
Just thought you guys would be interested to know.

That is similar weight increase as in the case of the Carrera S, in spite of the body weighing 12kg less.
Blame mostly:
Particulate filters
PDK with extra gear
BIgger wheels, fatter tyres.
Does anyone knows how much weight the optional carbon roof saves?
"Porsche....and Nothing else matters"
reginos:Does anyone knows how much weight the optional carbon roof saves?
Porsche site doesn't say, other than "30% lighter than standard roof"...
