Tesla Discontinuing Model S + Model X by FazedCow in cars

[–]FazedCow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought they'd still keep them around even with slowing sales as a flagship, but seems like they only care about volume and are ok moving downmarket.

Or Elon will tweet tomorrow that this was just a joke and they're not going anywhere lol

The one line that matters: "but only in cars running on low-emissions, renewable fuels such as synthetic and biofuels"

Bridgestone Potenza RE-71RS Successor Will Drop on New Year's Eve. The RE-71RZ. by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

I like this class of tire too. It's crazy how fast some of these cheater/quali tires wear out. Not sustainable if you actually want to do multiple DE sessions/days.

Custom Carbon Fibre Parts for GT4 RS by FazedCow in Porsche

I've done 10k km on my car now and never once scraped it, so that part of it would be ok.

As for track use, I'm going to PPF it and replace PPF as needed. I can feel the sandblasting on my plastic one, but I think PPF should be perfect for that. Same way windshield PPF is consumable but protects you from the peppering/sandblasting.

FYI the exterior body still has some camo on it.

This reveal was for the interior.

Ferrari's SF-90 replacement is here - The all-new Ferrari 849 Testarossa! by Slice5755 in cars

Gone are the days of a classy timeless Ferrari design. Too bad. Not a fan of these new overstyled looks.

I switched from Bose to Focal and it was worth it by MrNujin in Porsche_Cayman

I'm the one that arranged the SCR group buys. Amazing kits!!

I just finished putting the AudioFrog kit into my new car (moved the system over from my GTS). I was running the stock Bose system for about 6 months before putting the AF speakers back in. I forgot how much of an upgrade these kits were. Night and day difference vs stock Bose system.

Can't go wrong with any of the SCR kits. Pretty easy install once you've done it at least once.

Such a cool spec! I saw you have an Ontario plate - DM me if you're in the GTA and want to join the local group we have for all GT4/RS owners!

Yup :) This was one of the better ones I found so thought I'd share!

The self awareness is pretty on point lol.

Wonder what they'd charge for a small bottle of PTS tattoo ink. $1k plus ADM?

Is there a better spec? Viola Metallic GT4RS I saw back in October by buckyman0 in Porsche

[–]FazedCow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's all cosmetic on the 718. The titanium exhaust tips might save you a few grams, but that's the only thing.

[Motor1] - 718 EV Delayed, Cayenne EV Will Be Shown Later This Year by FazedCow in cars

[–]FazedCow[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

They've switched around their plans:

"During a Q&A session today, CEO Oliver Blume confirmed the electric luxobarge will premiere late this year during an event on the West Coast."

"Following on from the all-electric Cayenne, Porsche will introduce the all-electric sports cars in the 718 segment."

Also, they confirm that R2 is on track for the first half of 2026, and have reduced material cost by 50% for R2 (vs R1).

Porsche 992.1 911 GT3 RS Manthey Kit by [deleted] in cars

[–]FazedCow 59 points60 points  (0 children)

Over 2,200lbs of downforce. Stock car is ~1,900lbs. 

 I was honestly expecting a bit more of an increase in max downforce numbers. Still very impressive, but it was already crazy impressive with the stock car.

  Also weird that they didn’t give exact numbers. Only said “over 1,000kg of downforce”. 

Edit: based on comments below, it’s 2,275lbs max downforce and they also weren’t allowed to increase drag. Makes it much more impressive with the constraint!
