GTS IS ON THE WAY!! Tell me what you think?

[BMFC73]

Eagerly awaiting delivery of my GTS in a few weeks…

Thoughts??

Expected delivery date is 6-24. Planning for a full 3rd party XPEL10 PPF with 45% window tint same day of delivery.

Curious to know what the forum thinks about current demand for the GTS? Would you flip after acquiring?

Great looking build.
Hell no! Drive it and enjoy it. Do you want to drive a badass car or pocket some amount of money and start over. I'd be driving thr hell out of that thing. Market it crazy but I'd rather be driving than watching.
Just my $0.02.

Thanks wurzitup!! At the very least I will give it a strong 12-18 months knowing I can probably get my original MSRP if I chose to go a different direction. Im knew to the EV world and excited for what lies ahead.

Any thoughts

Main comment is that you’ve avoided the key options thst make the GTS a GRS - Racetex interior, black RS spyder wheels etc!

Also, no RAS?

Why not a 4S?

My thoughts exactly. It’s a nice spec Taycan, but probably the least GTS, GTS I’ve seen!

It has RAS… after a million configurations I felt I was getting more bang for my buck in the GTS, and I’m not a fan of the Race Tex.

I think it's a beautiful build. I have a GTS spec'd that I'm waiting to order but with Volcano Grey and black leather interior and the 21 Spyder wheels. I had the Racetex but the dealer kinda talked me out of it due to wear issues. Anybody have opinions on the durability on the Racetex? I have some Alcantra in my Trackhawk but not in the seats or other high wear areas. I love the look and feel of it but if the oil from hands and other things cause it to get all shiny or wear prematurely than maybe it's not worth it? Would love to hear from anyone that has experience with it. Thanks
@Sidicks - I checked his spec and it looks like he does have the RAS.

Exact same thing my SA told me and it makes sense. Just couldn't wrap my mind around a 150k+ car with Race Tex. GTS offered the black trims I wanted and felt the 4S configuration amounted to just about the same with less kick in HP. Plus my guess is the GTS will age better on resale.

Totally fair. It’s your car, spec it the way you want it

Like others said, it's a pretty non GTS GTS. I got a GTS too and I didn't get the Race-tex, but I did get the RS Spyder wheels. (Doing this would save you a few thousand dollars too, but ultimately it's personal preference).

I think you need to add either of these 2 options, whichever you prefer:

- Exterior Mirror Lower Trim in Exterior Color and Base in High Gloss Black
- Exterior Mirrors in Exterior Color

If you don't, you'll get the standard flat black plastic at the base of your sideview mirrors which does not look good. Since you're doing the black door handles (love that), I think you should have your mirror base painted in gloss black too.

Lol...yeah I was shocked when I saw this...car came over a year ago and I received numerous comments on the daily. After three months it was in an accident and totaled.
I've since replaced it with and ICE GREY GTS with carbon fiber mirrors .

maybe he is working with an old computer that's a year behind in the world ?

Holy cow... no idea how this ended up on the top of my threads list! I didn't even look at the date LOL.
