Lucky Phil Posted 28August, 2019 Report Share Posted 28August, 2019 No need to turn up sound for this one as there is none. Unsure if I could ever get used to the quiet. Just doesn't do anything for me. I need to sound of something that is engineered to explode to allow me to go this quick not just a battery plugged into an electric motor.

Raven Posted 28August, 2019 Report Share Posted 28August, 2019 I think Most of us will agree the technology is very impressive and no doubt this car will reset the bench mark in regards to EV s..The lap time is still bloody impressive considering the weight of the car and the fact it is more road focused car than track ,,,I can see this being a huge success for Porsche and they are certainly putting a lot of time and money into getting it as perfect as possible. The thing for me ,just like you said ,,,,,,, I just find the lack of engine sound somewhat depressing ,,,it just fails to get me emotional and all Rev d up if you get my Meaning ...I would rather watch a small hatch back getting flogged around the track because the sound of the engine working gives me a sense of how hard it being worked .. I would have to drive one to really now if I like it or not ,but yeh its impressive what they have achieved and I suspect Tesla is under serious threat .. firstone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airhead Posted 28August, 2019 Report Share Posted 28August, 2019 Thought I heard a PFFFTT turbo pop off valve at one point but then realised it was just my dog farting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TINGY Posted 28August, 2019 Report Share Posted 28August, 2019 Impressive for what it is, geez that was boring to watch, i got to 2mins, he could have put on a Beethoven symphony through the radio, i may have watched it for another minute.

Lucky Phil Posted 29August, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 29August, 2019 It's like watching an action movie with the sound off and subtitles displaying the dialogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnno Posted 29August, 2019 Report Share Posted 29August, 2019 YellowBird was 8:05 and thrilling to watch so many times. Taycan 7:42 different recording style - obviously competent and quick but not thrilling to watch. Raven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GC9911 Posted 29August, 2019 Report Share Posted 29August, 2019 I don’t get it, isn’t anyone turned on by the sound of electrons moving around? I’ve got a vacuum cleaner makes more noise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raven Posted 29August, 2019 Report Share Posted 29August, 2019 The popular opinion seems to be respect for the technological advancements ,,,but man the lack of sound track just makes it a none event ,,,, If I were forced to have to own one ,,,,I would have to install one of these in it Sound Racer X ......... If it can make a SAAB sound like a Shelby Mustang it should do wonders for EV ,S ....??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
