Heh, not for me thanks. I'm not trying to pump a bunch of artificial sound out into the world. In fact, when I got my 2020 Model 3, the first thing I did was disconnect the PWS speaker to keep it quiet outside.

Yeah, with my Tesla and my current job, I was charging 1-2x per week, so I suspect I wouldn't even need to get the double-corded EVSE except just to be convenient. I haven't liked the Sport Sound but making sure that I find one with that option so that if I miss the sound, I have it. Yes...

Absolutely they would, and people have done it. People retrofit GT2 Intercoolers on a standard Turbo in the 997 model all the time. It's not done all that often as a lot of times the parts don't fit, especially in the modern cars. Your example of unfitting a base 911 to GT3 spec starts to...

If I had a part number, and if I had a car to put it in, I absolutely would! Have you ever had them try to VIN block a part? Truly, I've never heard of them doing that.

Never had Porsche try to VIN lock a part, nor have I heard of anyone getting blocked like that. If they sell the part separately, I'm sure you can buy it. Only hold up would be if it's part of another module and it wasn't a separate part. But if it's literally just a part, I have no qualms...

Is there an actual ESS "module"? Could you just buy the GTS part for that?

Bumping this thread. I have a line on another 4S. This one really checks all my boxes except for 18 way seats, but it does have massage. Discussed with my wife last night. Her three objections, in increasing order: 1. How will we both charge (she has a PHEV Cayenne): that's easy. Your...

I've driven two ETron GT's but our roads are very flat and straight here, so it was hard for me to tell much of a difference between them. Definitely not as tied down, but not overly floaty or loose. Houston has awful roads for driving enjoyment.

Of course it isn't. It's a tarted up Golf. How does that have anything to do with the ETron GT?

Have you driven an ETron GT? This is not a typical Audi and if you're basing your thoughts on past Audi experiences, you're definitely in for a surprise. The car itself is a Taycan with some tuning differences. No, it doesn't have QUITE the feeling of the Taycan. But whereas if you drove a...

Can always tell people who have never owned or lived with a Tesla for a significant period of time... OP...I owned a Model 3 for 4 years (LR for 2, Performance for 2) which I sold in December last year. I understand your dilemma as I'm considering giving up my 997 Turbo S for a Taycan. I get...

No he has concrete mix, if you look at the bags. It's pre-mixed with sand and aggregate...just add water. It's not plain cement. <-- Smart ass Civil engineer here who has poured more than his fair share of concrete in his life.

Agreed, I've seen frozen berry. It's got a lot of nuance to it. Alot of gold / bronze tone. Not shocking pink, and it should hide rock chips fairly decently. Sounds like you're up for the learning experience, great! Your quote above on the PPF seems steep. Was $4k just for the PPF or was...

This is a bad take. It totally depends on how long you're keeping your car, what color it is, and what you're doing with it. So if it fits your use case, it's absolutely NOT a waste of money. My 911 is not a daily. No PPF, coating installed by me. It's Meteor gray and could get sold off...

According to Road and Track, the Urus will go PHEV in 2024 (coincidentally at the same time that the new Cayenne will offer 4 hybrid variants, in case you weren't up on that news. They include a 4 cylinder for China only, the 3.0T V6, the V8 Turbo and....something else). I would expect this...

Update to this post, I re-installed the Tesla app and searched...and none of these stations are open to non-Tesla charging. LOL.

The sedan and ST have different headlights from each other. The CT has 4 DRL's with a central headlight element. The sedan looks like it has 4 headlight elements, like the lights that have been announced for the new Cayenne. and on the ST, it looks like the upper and lower DRL "dots" are...

Exactly. I posted in another thread about "real world" range that where I live in Houston, there are a group of PCar owners who meet on the West side and go driving out in the eastern part of the Hill Country (Brenham, Round Top, etc.). From where I live on the North side of Town, out that...

Actually, if you listen to Kyle, he's 100% NOT a kool aid drinker. A fan? Sure. Calls out issues? 100%. Every time. Sorry that you get tripped up on someone's emotional leval. I don't see how any of this is a bad thing for non-Tesla EV owners. It's another choice, and as usual for...

Just wanted to add a data point that I have this happening on my newly delivered '23 Cayenne EHybrid as well. Every now and then it'll go into Privacy Mode on the app. It has happened more often in my garage, which has weak cell signal.
