So slow in reaction on upshifts, its not even funny.
I thought of waiting for the G80/82 but after the last drive in the M5 I am done. Next week I am going to order a rwd Taycan, which is much slower car than my F80 Comp but don't care. I drove the 4S twice and was more impressed with the overall experience than ever in a 911. I have driven hundreds of cars and remember only once being as impressed as with the Taycan 4S and that was when I firstly drove the E60 M5 with its incredible engine. E39 M5 was close but no standard 911 or 911 Turbo has been as fun as the Taycan.
Goes to show that for some at least even 5000 lbs is not a receipe for driving experience failure. The svelt 3900 lbs G8X should do just fine...
