Some people won't buy them because they won't find the seats to be comfortable... because their butt hurts.

In all serious and partially influenced by being increasingly disillusioned with new models since the mid-2010's, but is anyone surprised when a EV posts a sub-3.0s 0-60mph time? That's not hating on EV's since I have a 'to each their own' mentality, but it seems like that's generally the norm for something out of a 'performance' or major EV brand.

I'll be impressed (then afraid) when they break 1.0s in a FRP-level production vehicle.

Nothing about this car surprised me outside of them hiding all the up under stupid modes and stuff. If I'm being honest, I'm a little surprised they didn't push for more power. 1000hp is kinda like 5 years ago in terms of EV HP numbers. You get all these crazy Chinese EVs claiming like 1700-2000hp these days (although we all know Chinese ratings have no basis in reality - look at Amazon for proof of that). I kind of expected a premium marque like Porsche would want a resounding amount more power than anyone else.
