Yeah, I talked to my dealer and according to Porsche Sweden, Remote Park Assist should include Lane Change Assist even though it’s not explicitly listed as such. I’ve thus specced my car with Remote Park Assist, so I really hope it’s correct.
Don’t forget though that Tesla and their fans only really care about the 0-60mph numbers. Any type of “soft” values like driving characteristics are all but irrelevant because it’s not something that can be easily embraced by tech bloggers.
Like all Teslas, the roadster is probably going to...
They correctly render the entire car configuration all over the interface, including correct colour, seats, wheels, etc.
The older models used prerendered sprites, but the new ones render the car in 3D.
The deadline for implementing the pedestrian warning system for EVs in the US (including reverse beeping) was delayed last year to March 2021.

The EU has a different set of requirements, that I believe don't include...
I think the B-pillar has it but there was an option to add racetex to the headliner (literally "rearview mirror panel" translated from Swedish).
Otherwise I personally prefer leather over racetex when there's a choice.
Oh, I had completely missed this since I was going full out on leather and carbon, and never really looked into the racetex options. My lock date is coming up soon so I'm really glad I saw this thread in time.
When I configured my MY22 Taycan at the Porsche centre yesterday there was a new extended leather option that wasn’t available in the MY21 configuration. I think it was for the ceiling grab handles. Not sure if that’s something new or if they had just moved around some options.
Sorry for hijacking the thread a bit, but has it been confirmed that Lane Change Assist is included in Remote Park Assist? These options appears to be mutually exclusive to each other in the configurator, but my contact at the Porsche Center didn’t have any information at hand whether that was...
So regarding the massage seats, what are people's opinion about comfort+massage seats vs the 18-way sport seats? Would you rather have opted for them instead over the massage feature?
@B61 Really? I thought it at least changed the ride height of the different driving modes so that the Normal and Sport modes have High ride height instead of Medium?
Do you remember what height setting you used when you took the photos?
I’m still trying to decide whether to get the off-road package or not before my build locks, but I’m concerned that the slightly increased ride height would look odd.
I’ve been told that I’m going to get a 2022 build, but they still haven’t released the updated configurator in Sweden yet, so I’m probably going to do some slight alternations when that happens.
Here is my current order anyway:

It seems to be tied to Park Assist. They're probably just missing an image asset for the extra sensor in the configurator. Not entirely sure why this broke now, though.
Yeah, regarding Tesla, I have very little hope that they will manage to deliver the Plaid+ in Europe anytime soon even before the chip shortage became a problem. At this point my current Taycan order is probably the best I can get timewise and is also the car that I actually want for that matter...
Well, that's depressing. I thought it was pretty safe to assume that one would get a reasonable delivery date by ordering an essentially top specced model so shortly after the reveal, but that's obviously not entirely how it works.
Maybe I would have had better luck if I had gone for another...
To my knowledge from the agreement when I made the deposit and information I've gotten from Swedish Porsche Center, I do not have an allocated build slot, at least not one that has been communicated with me.
So I placed an order of my Cross Turismo Turbo S in March and at the time they couldn’t tell me a date for when it will be delivered or even locked for production, which I guess could be understandable for such a new model.
However, now a bit over two months later, I still haven’t received any...
