Used Taycan with replaced battery - red flag?

[Brandinimo]

I can’t believe it - it’s almost the perfect spec but it’s missing power folding mirrors. ?

The question is, can I live without them or should I make no compromises…

If that’s it, live without them ?

No auto fold mirrors would be close to a deal breaker for me! But if everything else was perfect I’d probably live with it, but such an annoying feature to be missing… such a basic thing to make standard.

How much more is your option to have the perfect spec? Do you even have such an option, other than ordering a custom order?

Taycans are extremely customizable. There are so many options there are many, many more combinations of options than Taycans that will ever be produced. Finding an already produced one with all the options you want and no other is very unlikely. Buying a CPO will always be compromise on options. Find the closest optioned Taycans you want, make your choice based on what you want, what you get, and what you want to pay for it. If the only option missing is folding mirrors, and the only way to get them is to pay for example $30K more, would you pay $30K for folding mirrors option on any car?

If the folding mirrors are super important, you might check with your dealer about a retrofit.

A car without an incident will have a better resale value than one with, all else being equal.

Yep. Which cuts both ways - should be able to buy it cheaper as well as having to sell it a bit cheaper when the time comes.

We don't have anything like carfax in the UK, so very much caveat emptor!!
