A 30 minutes charging session cost me $2k!?!!

[WattTurbo]

Guys and gals, I just wanted to make this post so the same thing doesn't happen to you as it did me. So, this afternoon, we took off work a little early since tomorrow is a holiday and no workie..., and I decided to bring the car to an EA station right outside of the mall near our house. While I am there I can put my steps in while waiting for it to charge. The wife accompanied me. We plugged the car in, and walked into the mall, and she headed straight to the Michael Kors store. Next thing I know I am swiping my credit card, and carried this big bag out! I think I've more than spent the savings I'd have gotten on the 3 years of free charging on the second week of owning this car. Arrrrgggg!

All joking aside, here she is after a wash and a coat of ceramic...

I wouldn't order the Frozen Berry for myself...... but with the color matched Mission Es looks so badass...... love this car. This must draw a masssssive amount of attention both on the road and in parking lots. Love it.

Suggest going straight for the Birkin as it has more appreciation potential.

Crocodile Skin in flamingo Pink to match the Frozen Berry!

Not sure if this style even exists…

You're right, we have had positive responses especially at a local Porsche car meet last weekend

Sorry, but I have no idea what Birkin is...

Send the bill to Porsche noting a clerical error, citing that you’re supposed to get 30 minutes of free charging for 3 years.

you are lucky that you don’t know.

Looked at the OP picture above and it suddenly made me think this.

If I was not a Taycan owner and was unaware of the car and the colour - I would be dumbfounded if I saw your car in public.

I wouldn't be sure what I thought of it at first......a strange pinkish porsche???
...... but after staring at it for a while, I might then decide it is actually the coolest car I've ever seen.

I would then stare at it some more - decide it was epic and take a photo.

If it then accelerated off in a whoosh of electric torque, I would end up telling everyone about it and looking it up on Google.

And I would want one!
?

Actually, it's "unhappy wife, unhappy life". It's not quite the same meaning.

lol, soooo close with the crocodile.

I bet there is a Birkin bag style that matches every Porsche color out there, even the PTS.

Good to see another Houston area Taycan - will have to keep an eye out going through Katy!
Def need to replace the amber side markers (although I guess arguably they might be OK with this color choice!)
I've literally passed two sedans and zero CT's on the road since December in Texas including trips to SA/Austin etc. (excluding the Porsche meet at the dealership in Houston North & meeting fellow forum members)!

I’ve noticed a lot of US cars come with these, why is that? Mine are clear and looking at photos that other UK owners have posted they have clear ones too so is it a US regulation?
