    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    Here's an excerpt from the Pennsylvania ALTERNATIVE FUEL VEHICLE REBATE PROGRAM GUIDELINES: "Final Purchase Price – The price a buyer pays the dealer for a new, pre-owned, or demonstration alternative fuel vehicle including all option packages, not including trade-in value. This price does not...

    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    I think the relatively low approach angle of the CT may disqualify it as an SUV.

    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    Operational definitions of a few terms would be helpful to understand how the prospective new rules will affect a given transaction. For transactions after 31-Dec-2022 it would be nice to know the exact meaning of "MSRP". This really won't be important for Porsche vehicles since few, if any...

    Homelink Profile - I don’t get it…

    It also does not require the "long press".

    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    I think the credit on is limited to used vehicles with a selling price of $25K or less. In other words, very few transactions will ever qualify.

    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    With the current rate of inflation running above 9% I am surprised there is not a provision to bump up the $55K and $80K thresholds every year. Before too long the only vehicles that qualify for the tax credit will be the least desirable ones.

    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    I wonder if some manufacturers will game the system by offering compliance priced vehicles to meet the MSRP threshold and then offer FODs for options that would otherwise increase the MSRP.

    Infrastructure Bill passed. I don’t think this is good.

    Wouldn't it be more accurate to call the bill the Transitory Inflation Reduction Act of 2022?

    Is there going to be a new Taycan?

    Add 2-speed transmission to your list.

    Brand new RWD or 2yr old 4S?

    While I hope there are buyers when I am ready to trade my Taycan for a newer EV, I don't think I could persuade myself to buy a used EV unless is was still the current model year. I think there's a high risk that Porsche will abandon early adopters with 2020 models by not making software updates...

    Major software update announcement coming July 13th…

    The My Porsche phone app is also not working.

    ANA 6 recall : dealers not able to apply?

    I did not make the appointment by selecting the option in the notification message received in June. I called it in so I could confirm two things, the availability of a loaner and the availability of the remedy at the time of my original appointment on 18-Jul. I was told both would be available...

    ANA 6 recall : dealers not able to apply?

    It's true that the notification (received in June) about the ANA6 update did indicate that "THE REMEDY FOR THIS RECALL IS NOT YET AVAILABLE". But there was also a prominent red button prompting you to schedule an appointment at the bottom of the message. When I made the first appointment for...

    ANA 6 recall : dealers not able to apply?

    My ANA6 update has been rescheduled from 26-Jul to 5-Aug due to my scheduling conflicts and the availability of a loaner. The PIWIS software update is available, but yet to be installed. Hopefully, by the time my car is in the shop at the end of next week the dealer will have applied the ANA6...

    ANA 6 recall : dealers not able to apply?

    I called my dealer on 21-Jul and was told that the software was not yet available. I called again today to learn that the software IS now available, BUT it cannot be downloaded because the shop computer is not running the latest software. So it's likely that my 26-Jul appointment will be...

    12V battery pack size

    Do you think this charger from Griot's Garage will work with the Taycan 12v battery? https://www.griotsgarage.com/battery-manager-v/?sku=92232&code=PPCPLG&gclid=Cj0KCQjwuO6WBhDLARIsAIdeyDJfmDNeTm_LRVnCxzqWZ_zkEN0fMILYCySpWIQyJyzpY1_vqRuZtwAaAsmlEALw_wcB

    Air suspension front ride height

    If the link is not connected, how could the car return to normal height after it is started?

    Keeping car locked while high pressure washing?

    Try disabling the key by pressing the lock and unlock button at the same time (red light will flash). You can confirm that the key is disabled by trying to start the car. It should complain that the key cannot be found. To re-enable the key fob, press any button.

    2021+ owners - how consistently has EA Plug & Charge been working for you?

    I have used EA chargers about 20 times in NJ, PA, OH, and NY. Plug and charge worked about 10% of the time. The My Porsche app works okay but I don't find it very intuitive.
