The marketing guy must have been drunk or stoned.

Flatbutt and I both thought the same thing. The ad' gave me the giggles a little. I might have enjoyed it more if a SC started growling in someone's garage, but that's just me.
I guess you need to be a dog owner to appreciate the ad. But that's a good thing. Dog owners tend to be in the richer demographics. |

What does a Taycan sound like? Pandering, buy our gas models now, then our electric later.

The greatest Porsche sound I've ever heard was from my Beck Spyder with high revs in a tunnel. Except that was a VW engine. But still...

It's the end.
petrol engines and their unique sound signatures - soon to be forgotten as electric replace ICE. The fake digital soundtracks will keep the younger buyers happy, until they hear the real thing. Time to invest in classic V8/V10/V12, although the ecars will beat them overall + performance wise.

Back in the 60's when we saw Corvettes at stop lights revving up next to no one, the "small penis syndrome" came alive. Some how, this commercial made me think its back!!!!

"Small penis syndrome" is almost ALMOST as bad as fat shaming.

That was a great commercial. But my favorite one is this:
I was visiting the factory in Germany and they had a lot of activity developing the new cars. When I got back, there was a box from Porsche with a VHS tape. First add that ever made me feel like I had to go the dealership and put an order.

An SUV will never be a good sports car to me.
It must be frustrating when you buy a Porsche SUV while dreaming of a real sports car All I got was the feeling of this guy's buyers remorse, he should of got the sports car Porsche. And all the engine sounds were lame typical slow throttle response modern sounds. |

Loved that commercial!
BTW - I'd also love to know whose hanger this is? Zwart have a hanger? ![]() And what's that last red(?) car - is that a 911 speedster outlaw?

Gon fix it with me hammer

first of all.. free revving is never going to get you the good sound and most cars revving in the vid didn't sound that great at all anyway.
even that Cayman in the video it's a stock 987 and mine was so quiet the belt whine behind my ear was irritating, it only started sounding right with the Carnewal GT mod to the muffler and the 2 in 2 out tips. But essentially , the great sound is not when doing some lame as revblipping with yer clutch in.. to what, 4000rpm?? that's mickey mouse chit , seriously.. And since when do Pepperwagons have an engine that relates to any of the Porsche racing history?? lame commercial all around, Porsches need to be driven to enjoy.. not parked.
