Review this Taycan Turbo GT spec

[Mr.Smith]

Sent this to my dealer for their next allocation which should be Q1 2025.
It's still a long shot because the price without a lot of discounts doesn't make sense, RV& MF for the lease are a joke.
I'm hoping Porsche gets more aggressive on Taycan programs by next year.

I don't like any ADAS or the glass roof. I wish Taycan had a carbon fiber roof option like the E-Tron GT


Let me know your thoughts on the spec

Sensible configuration.

Why not the HD-Matrix headlights?

Personally, I think this car would kill at first sight in PTS Parliament Grey

I have them on my RS E-Tron GT, but I don't see the benefit, unless I'm missing something?

I want a vibrant, bright color. I would hate to deal with Porsche and PTS allocations.

Would Parliament grey be close this this?

I really like the aluminum pedals on my build. It should be standard.

As for the HD matrix headlights, they are no benefit in the USA, unless you….uhh have the capability to enable the hardware as it was designed for operating in the EU.

There is a shop that does it here in Orange County, but there isn't that much benefit from what I understand.

Don't get me started on what should be standard on a Porsche

My question was based on aesthetics, as the HD-Matrix headlights look quite nice and at no additional cost … setting aside any benefit considerations.

The car color in the picture looks like Volcano Grey under warm light. Parliament Grey has a brighter and warmer luster, with a subtle gold undertone that would match well with the GT’s Victory Gold calipers.

I’m partial to an understated look, but if you prefer a more electric and brighter color, that’s definitely the way to go!

Good point about the aesthetics of the lights. I'll change that for sure.

I agree on the understated colors. I've noticed the 2 colors are lighter greys and lighter greens
Black olive

China grey

The Black Olive is quite unique; the color reminds me of dark celadon pottery hue.

This color will also blend fantastically well with the GT’s calipers.

Looks great. My opinion of course but if going deviated stitching I would pick something that pops a bit more then gray. Mainly for the cost of it.

   I totally agree, Its very dull, but there are such limited colors. I need the seatbelts to match the stitching and I would prefer the Sport Chrono to match (or chose the PD Sport Chrono)

Ideally I would do white Olea leather with a purple stitching

 

[Caraholic]

As to why they don’t have a purple for the seat belts and stitching is beyond me.

Sonderwunsch will have it, but it makes no sense to spend that kind of money on a Taycan
