I want to ask the hardcore Porsche guys here a question:
Porsche and 911 in particular are considered the pinnacle of automotive engineering excellence. But is there something you miss from other cars you have owned or driven? Is there a car brand that does something a little better? For e.g. steering feel of a Lotus or transmission shifts of a Ferrari or something like that?
I will leave out the obvious: I know Porsche is not known for luxury of a Rolls Royce/Bentley… So :)
Back up cameras. The image quality is pitiful.
I would get into arguments with people that it’s safer to pull into a spot than to back into a spot because the cameras are so good and then I got a 2022 Audi Q4 and the resolution on that camera is s*** compared to my Honda Accord. I realized my argument was terrible in light of the fact that most backup cameras do suck.
Does it really matter? No matter which way you park, you’re still going the opposite when you leave, except if the spot is empty in front of you.
This is an issue with all cars!! I’d pay $100 more for an awesome lense.
My 2018 Audi Prestige A4 had a great backup camera.
I dont think the taycan is that bad… but it def isnt that good either. i need to look up the actual specs to figure out what part of the chain is the weak part and see if i could fix that. The birdseye view built from 4 lenses is the killer feature and surprised more dont do that simple trick - i park straight & between the lines every time!
YES
100% this. Like a Betamax from the 80s, camera quality is embarrassingly bad on Porsches.
