I'm about to become an even bigger a$$hole than I already am.
I’ve been looking at the manual in the good to know app. It talks about “comfort access” - an option that has door auto open, close, etc. It talks about it as if it’s an option, but it isn’t listed as an option in the configurator. Is it an option? I’m inclined to think all cars have it, but...
I asked this in the other Taycan forum and nobody knew. Anyone here know why Porsche is requiring us to get the glass roof in the US? I think I would have picked it anyway, but didn’t give it much thought since it’s required. But it’s strange that it’s required in the US but not elsewhere. Some...

Anyone using this? According to the app description, you can use it to “Track the production and shipment of your ordered vehicle”.
But, to link your car to your account in the app, you need a VIN. When is a VIN assigned? I thought you...
“LED-Matrix Design Headlights in Glacier Blue incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS+)”
Trying to decide on this option. Has anyone seen this? What do you think? What is “PDLS” anyhew?
I was just paying with the configurator, specing out a Turbo. The turbo has a $900 option “exterior package painted in high gloss black”. This appears to be the same as the 4S option “sport design package in high gloss black”. Does anyone know - are these the same? Has anyone seen this? Seems...
I have an order with my dealer for a 4 S with early July delivery. With all the options I have, I’m considering an upgrade to the Turbo. The incremental cost to me for the Turbo, combined with the expected higher resale value of the Turbo, makes the upgrade appealing to me.
Sadly, my dealer...
After going hog wild adding options to my 4S build, the price is up to $149K from the starting $103K before options. Yikes! That's getting close to Turbo price territory. The same options on the Turbo "only" get me to $179K, from the base $151K. So my $46K of options on the 4S are only $26K...
Is anyone getting these?
I originally had these in my build, but took them out because of the cost. With the required $3500 PSC brakes, the Mission E wheels (painted) add almost $9500 to the cost of the car. Which just seems silly, especially since the brakes don't really add value due to the...
Just saw this. Being from Boston I found it very funny, Enjoy!
But speaking of smaht pahk, I just realized the Taycan doesn’t have it. Does it? Seems odd for such a high tech car not to have it. It’s been around for what, 10 years? I have it in my current car and have actually never used...

Anyone know anything about these guys? They are claiming their car will have:
* 0-60 under 2.5 seconds
* Over 200 mph top speed
* Over 400 miles range (!?)
Is that even possible with today’s technology?
It's way early for me to be thinking about this - I won't have my Taycan for months. But what can I say? It gives me something to think about in the meantime.
So can anyone advise on what's involved to set up for charging in my garage? Do I need an electrician with any particular expertise...
Very personal question, I know. But this is an anonymous survey. My Taycan will be by far the most expensive car I’ve bought, after 30 years of BMW 5s. I’m curious about who puts that type of investment in such a car. Is your taycan a financial stretch, but an indulgence that’s worth the cost to...
I ordered a new 4S yesterday (!). Fro some reason, my dealer is telling me I have to have my options absolutely finalized by tomorrow. So I’m scrambling. Here’s my current build:

Any comments or suggestions? One thing I’m wondering about is the all season...
