The 992 feels properly modern while for me still beating pretty much everything available new today except some higher end 911s (The GT cars) I guess in terms of driving enjoyment.

You got me intrigued to drive the Taycan now.
Wow, well you know what I mean then with the rawness and feel

You need to drive the Taycan for sure, i suggest you try the 4S. Its about as fast as the 992 Carrera on a straight line up to about 150 km/h imo. The Taycan is no 911 of course but its unbelievable, how it drives for a 2200 kg car. I never thought electric cars could feel that sharp. As a daily you can't get anything better. On track I would think the 4S could be a 7.45 - 7.50 car at the ring but thats just an estimate and clearly slower as a 992 Carrera. As a daily I would definitely prefer the Taycan but if you track a lot, the 992 is the choice.
