did anyone who comented actually have there speakers turned on when watching it

it can do 25k ON ELECTRIC ONLY,,,, but this is a HYBRID so remember not a electric car

and it weighs less than 1500 kilos and should lap the ring in less time than the carerra GT,,,, not a fucking carrera

AND PORSCHE HAVE NEVER MADE A SHITE SPORTS CAR EVER ( 2.5 boxster is not a sports car pmsl)

Not really TBH. It's sold with a Porsche badge on the front. Bit like the old Ford Galaxy/VW Sharan/Seat Alahmbramamama thingy wears the badge and is sold as a marque but it doesn't make it one.

Just my viewpoint of course
