    Phone Apps List (relevant to Taycan ownership)

    Added the latest contributions, thanks everyone. Didn't really think it needed to be sorted, but that plus the growing size of the table prompted me to figure out how to figure out how to easily reformat/reorganize the table(s). Had I used the wysiwyg editor, it would have been a lot of painful...

    do I really need Sport Chrono?

    I'm one of those that thinks the sport chrono sticks out like a sore anachronism in the Taycan, but I'm currently in a Macan loaner where the chrono doesn't stick out nearly as much. I wish the Taycan chrono was more integrated like the Macan. edit: the loaner was actually a Cayenne. I...

    Phone Apps List (relevant to Taycan ownership)

    Added Waze since it gets a lot of mentions, with the best description I could come up with, having never used it :)

    Phone Apps List (relevant to Taycan ownership)

    FWIW I made assumptions about iPhone availability for all these apps. I don't have one but it seems likely they all have iphone versions. Also have to say that Porsche could have made the Charging NA app privacy policy more phone friendly...

    Phone Apps List (relevant to Taycan ownership)

    I thought I'd start a wiki post to collect a list of phone apps relevant to Taycan ownership. We'll see how this goes. Porsche Provided Name Platform Region Description Charging NA Android/iPhone North America Porsche Charging Service app Charging Android/iPhone Europe Porsche Charging...

    Dashcam

    Here's my BlackVue DR650. You might be able to see the expansion of the burst cap on top of the supercaps that are rated too low of a temperature for this application. I also found the thing unreliable and had to set up a script on my computer that would "ping" the camera on a regular basis to...

    Epic 5-day Road Rally Through Colorado

    Mason, actually, though he did mention one of the Xpel employees was in the rally, which must have been Kris. You laugh but that did cross my mind (well, I was thinking more about performance than range) :CWL:

    Epic 5-day Road Rally Through Colorado

    Xpel Austin manager on the phone today: "are you familiar with Normal Guy Supercar?" We were talking about 8mil vs 10mil film, and he referred me to a specific video.

    Epic 5-day Road Rally Through Colorado

    They put the washer fluid refill in the front of the hood instead of squeezed in the hinge like Tesla. No need to dig out the beer bong for a refill. :clap: "Dave, you can talk" Yeah, but it's more fun to watch you flounder! :D I'd say maybe I'll see your bro around Austin, but I'm getting...

    christ, I'd like to trade mine in while it's still worth something.

    Personalized License Plates - What’s Yours / What do you Suggest?

    I was thinking maybe this, but then I'd just end up making myself a target for rabid fanboys.

    one small way in which you can tell Porsche is still learning EV’s

    They lock you out of the app so that you don't sit there and honk the horn over and over while it's in service.

    Repair PPF before sale?

    To further clarify, I looked up the warranty and it says: This is clearly none of those things, sadly.

    CARRARA WHITE Taycan Club

    I'm curious about what xpel ultimate plus looks like on Carrara White vs. xpel stealth. Anyone have pictures of their car with either? I tried doing a web search but so far have only found links like "no it's not carrara white, it's standard white".

    Repair PPF before sale?

    Here are some more. You kind of have to zoom in, though, to be able to see the spots. FWIW, I spoke with the Xpel shop about the issue and they too recommended that I just leave it for the dealer. I ended up picking up my car based on their recommendation and yours. The car has full-body...

    2021 Taycan New Colors Samples / Swatches

    It doesn't help at all! It makes me wish I'd ordered Dolomite silver instead of Carrara white! :CWL:

    Repair PPF before sale?

    Thanks for the reply. There are a couple of concerns that maybe I failed to convey sufficiently. The splatter in the second picture is spread between the front and back wheels on the passenger side. That is, it covers the rocker panel, rear fender and both passenger doors. Both xpel's...

    Repair PPF before sale?

    This is a bit OT so my apologies. I'm looking at selling or trading in my existing car, which has full-body PPF installed. But, there are several damaged panels that aren't going to clean up. Most of the passenger side is covered in some unknown substance (paint? construction adhesive?) and...
