Nothing super exciting- maybe the Audi RS6 but they are on heavy markups still and I dont need another 4 door. The Porsche Turbo S is the one--- just waiting for the dust to settle a bit.

Have you had the chance to get behind the wheel of Taycan? I'll always love Porsche after the pair I had, but they are expensive these days! Pushing 250 for a 911 TT S nicely equipped is a lot of coin! I'm not rolling like I used to haha Too many mouths to feed these days: but my CLS still does it for me. All the EV's coming soon are confusing in terms of like it or don't.....the GT 4 door really gives me a bone though, but again.....cost is high!

I thought of the Taycan for a minute, just a minute as it wasnt what I wanted for now. I still wanted a motor that had sound. I am piqued by it but not by its terrible price point and depreciation that will or already has, ensued. I love Porsche though so its definitely something to discuss.
