    According to rennlist forums, this is the reason for the wipers moving:
    If the wipers set too long in one position, then the rubber conforms to that position and you have to replace the blades sooner.
    A lot of these cars never go out in the rain, as such the wipers can stay in one position a very long time without this feature.

    Man it's so ironic that the 'go anywhere, do everything supreme daily" is such a special edition. My spicy take is that I prefer versions of cars like this on the road vs trying to use ultra-track-focused cars on the road.

      I predict that off road’y sports cars will become more and more common as infrastructure continues to deteriorate.

    Greetings from Brazil, I completely agree with you, this car makes more sense in cities with their speed bumps, driveways and potholes, than in a rally. I hope this is a new trend and that manufacturers make vehicles like this a regular production vehicle, and not special versions.

    My MK7 GTI did the wiper thing, and of all of the cars I’ve owned I never went so long without replacing blades as with that car. I’m pretty sure my set of Bosch wiper blades lasted 4-5 years on that car. Granted, I am in Southern California so they don’t get used too often, but the car was outside for basically that entire period of time.

    The Porsche 911 Dakar is a responsive and extraordinarily powerful vehicle as it rockets on the road. Here in Utah it just devours the backroads.

      America needs high speed rail network and public transportation because the vast road system is too expensive to maintain.

    Cars that benefit people under corrupt government rule seem to have gotten more and more popular over the past several years 🤔 Seriously though, a Macan has everything the Dakar has and 5x more…and no shaver. Don’t confuse limited production with special.
