    (A year from announce for normal people to get allocations and then delivery I mean)
  2. Porsche 718 / 983 Boxster EV Electric - spotted testing

    me too. Don’t worry. It’ll take like a year for the first units to make it to the states. Plenty of time to sell
  3. My move from Taycan 4S to Turbo -- real difference is the way it drives

    429hp vs 616hp. Not quite 50% more power. the transmission will still kick down, but it’s unusual since you just don’t need more power very often. I also use the chrono sport dial on the steering wheel to change modes regularly if I anticipate wanting a little more vigor ….
  4. Which service add ons are worth buying?

    In general, the standard Porsche warranty for new cars is great for BEV. The tire and wheel package … I have terrible tire luck so I got it. Ymmv
  5. A Taycan Owner Buys a Tesla: Informal Battle of Two (Very Different) EVs!

    My fundamental problem with driving Tesla is they are designed by people who want computers to drive. Anyone who says Tesla steering is good … like i can’t even. It’s some of the most numb and over digitalized electric steering I have ever experienced including a host of rentals and econo...
  6. PSA: Shameless plug - Dirt Fish Rally School

    I’ll second the weekday track approach. My boss has to give me days off if I have the accumulated time. Wife … not so much.
  7. Taycan refesh with updated tech alongside the Macan?

    Anyway, no, a refreshed Taycan will come out after the macan launch. Porsche is an SUV company with a motorsports division. They won’t risk messing up the macan EV. It’s nearly existential
  8. Taycan refesh with updated tech alongside the Macan?

    It’s going to be a lot heavier, so it’ll need more hp, and hp is really cheap to add to EV. I could see 600hp!!! (only in overboost in launch control, otherwise 500 99.9% of the time) like the taycan TTS has 770hp! Lolz not really. The Cayenne could easier do taycan levels and slot above a...
  9. PSA: Shameless plug - Dirt Fish Rally School

    Dirtfish is definitely on my list. But next up is Barber Motorsports Park with the Porsche masters program …. Ice driving … #dreams
  10. New family car

    The taycan is a fantastic daily, family car to pair with a lot of v8s. Or v12s. Or a wonderful selection of totally impractical supercars…
  11. Porsche Launch a 2 Door Taycan with Aero Blades

    Taycan is still faster to 60 …
  12. Anyone bored of EV?

    Yup. this is living your best life
  13. 🏁 Taycan GT / GT3 / GT4 prototype (or hot performance variant) spotted?!

    it almost outsold the 911. One of the Porsche execs (CFO? don't recall) bragged about how large the BEV premiums they could charge to their customers. So not much risk of abandoning the taycan.
  14. 🏁 Taycan GT / GT3 / GT4 prototype (or hot performance variant) spotted?!

    batteries are never going to be swapped quickly first, batteries are becoming structural chassis elements, as Tesla is showing. This offers significant weight savings and is much much more valuable to performance than hot swappable batteries. second, the improvements to charging architecture...
  15. Accused of using Laser Jammer (don’t have one)

    he aimed at the aero designed grill instead of just the side of your car and is sad his aim sucks ?
  16. Man discovers $80K truck takes 4 days to charge at home - Links

    that so weird my DC fast charging doesn’t take home charging amounts of time to finish and I never get billed for more than 30 minutes …
  17. Taycan vs Water

    exactly. Water seeping into the cabin will damage a huge amount of things and the mold may be impossible to remove
  18. Deposit etiquette

    didn’t say you couldn’t. But if the national dealer doesn’t have a lonely allocation without a local customer right now, your deposit for their waitlist isn’t likely to help all that much without a relationship. You’re going to be at the bottom of the list compared to any local customer unless...
  19. Deposit etiquette

    If there are more customers than cars, somebody has to lose. Dealers generally prioritize long term customers by the amount of business they’ve done, local customers who may service their vehicle, and of course ADM. That doesn’t mean you always get what you want. The VIPs in major...
  20. Anyone considering the cancellation of their Taycan ?

    a real revision of the taycan isn’t, rumored, to happen for quite a few years yet. ymmv.
