    Polestar 5

    I didn't expect it to cost so much (base equivalent to $140K??). The exterior is OK, the interior is depressingly Tesla. The performance seems...fine? What are the highlights that make this car exciting and worth the price? I'm confused that someone could buy a lower-end Taycan model, get PAR...

    PCM won’t load (pic attached)

    I'd still make an appt and have them check it out. Just because it's working now doesn't mean it won't become troublesome again 3 days from now. Document your issues as best as possible to help your tech better understand the situation, especially because machines love to magically work when IT...

    Bay Area Taycan Depreciation

    Cool stuff. Can you ask it to compare the Taycan depreciation to Porsche's broader lineup excluding its 2-door sports cars? Panamera, Macan, Cayenne. I find the last section title a little misleading: " Why Taycans depreciate faster than traditional Porsches" Did the AI pick that title, or is...

    Porsche Lease Pull Ahead Program

    Just based on general conversations I've seen here (and had with broader EV owners) - it seems that most folk who buy an EV don't go back to gas IF they have a home charger. The most regret I see with EV purchases is from people who don't have access to home charging or other very reliable...

    Ferrari Luce EV

    Is that really the case, though? Now the comparisons will be "lack of drama/excitement" AND "it's also ugly." Or, if anything, I would imagine a lack of the former argument would be because: "it's so ugly, I don't even care to compare it." I don't think the comparison to gas cars matters to EV...

    PCM won’t load (pic attached)

    I've been having my own issues with the PCM/Bluetooth the last month, finally got annoyed enough to schedule a dealership visit. They said there's no troubleshooting steps I can go through besides bringing it in. So, you gotta bring it in.

    Porsche Connect Ending

    Thanks for correcting me. Looks like this is related to the Bluetooth issue I've been experiencing recently. phone connects and disconnects rapidly the entire drive every drive. I made an appt for next Monday and just added this to the list of symptoms.

    Porsche Connect Ending

    My free 1 year ran out at the end of April. I've been operating fine the last month, but I didn't expect the app to be literally useless without a sub. Seems weird that Porsche wouldn't try to incentivize us to keep the app on our phone for broader purposes (marketing, etc.). I only used it for...

    So, has there really been no credible news…

    I don't have space for a 2-seater in my life currently, but I absolutely want to test drive this WHEN (not if!) it becomes available. Exciting to see this picture.

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    I don't disagree with what you're saying, I just think the journalism is poor when folks don't include context such as all the context you so wonderfully wrote. Short term, Porsche's problem is poor EV sales and likely recalibrating themselves back to their roots with a combustion engine focus...

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    This cycle of raising prices and losing customers is going to come to a head at some point. And the raising prices is something these articles never touch on. I wish they would, because "Porsche is losing customers and EV sales are down" is such a hollow take without context.

    New Rival: AMG GT - 4 Door Coupe - 1169hp

    I think they nailed blending futuristic with suave in that design. Love it. Glad to see someone pushing hard on the future of EVs instead of cowering back like others.

    Taycan 18 way seat Discomfort

    I'll add my comment to the pile for folks in the future who search for this thread and want to read opinions. American here, so: 6'0, 165lbs. I have the 18-way and love them. They feel sporty, and I feel held. This also means they're a bit firmer. They don't feel as feathery, cushiony, soft as...

    Cayenne Vs Taycan

    I think you meant to say Cayenne.
