Interesting. How much more expensive? Just curious.

When I got my quotes 3 months ago, Fidelity DID NOT cover the HV battery, and XCare did. I spoke to 2 Fidelity agents and also read the contract. They told me no one covers it (but XCare did).

I had XPEL installed on my windshield about a month ago. No distortion so far. Can't speak to longevity yet obviously. I just bought Griot's Garage windshield ceramic coating to make it slicker so it will reduce the need for wiper blade motion and the friction. Apparently that one is safe for...

What a shame. I'd rather have this side / curb view to help with narrow garage entrances and parking. I find the 3D views just gimmicky. Wonder how someone would choose the side view. Thanks for the response.

@chun Did you ever figure out a way to get the side/kerb/curb view? Like you, I have a 2020 with park assist with surround view, the extra cameras in the mirrors, and no remote park assist, but I don't have that 3rd button. The discussions around this are confusing. Did Porsche just take away...

Care to elaborate on the differences you feel between the old and the new? I briefly considered the I4 M50 before going with the Taycan, and am sure I made the right choice, but I'm curious about your in-depth perceptions after ownership of both.

I was recently shopping around and looking at buyback cars. I got mostly negatives on extended warranties, but I was told by one dealer in Chicago that Porsche was trying to move buyback cars and was now providing warranties on buyback cars after 2021 (not 2020s). Now that was for buying from...

Mine were scraped a bit from moving around (scraping) a bit on the shop floor (lying on the inner side) while switching wheels. Mine were cosmetic. Perhaps yours could have happened from been laid down when some work was done (e.g. to the brakes)

I think there are quite a few threads on options (with of course some strong opinions matching owner preferences). Here are my suggested options from when I was looking, somewhat in order of priority, for a starting point. Must Haves Bigger battery (93KWH) ⁠150 kW/400V DC on-board charger for...

All these extended warranty prices being thrown around in recent posts are so much lower than post-warranty-expiry prices. That seems obvious (higher risk for vehicle out of warranty and maybe older), but worth stating for those reading these threads and looking around.

Thank you. Something for me to ponder.

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately I don't have sport chrono. :( Does putting it in sport mode via the button essentially accomplish the same responsiveness? (perhaps I can combine that with manually switching suspension mode)

@prj and others I have a question about the anti-surge dampers alone. I read through all 21 pages of forum text before asking. I generally drive in the city in my 2020 4S, in tight traffic. The only small downside I need improved is what I perceive as a "delay" on acceleration. I presume it's...

How many miles does this car have now? It's an important component in the pricing, so your price quotes will be more insightful with the current mileage. And sigh... it's so much cheaper and easier to buy warranty when the car is within warranty. For 4 years additional (not 5 like yours), with...

Everyone throws around pricing they got, but remember it depends on your car's mileage (significantly) and age. So I think you can do way better than what you were quoted, but each car's pricing may be slightly different.

There are several forum threads, I've written on my most recent experiences as well. Suggest you shop around a lot and get it done before your warranty expires (your options change when it is over). There are several "recommended" dealers with favorable pricing in the threads.

@PCASSOO Did you ever make more of these? or the ABS versions? I think the front end of 4S needs something and I'm wondering about an ABS lip. I'm curious where this effort went after this discussion a couple of years ago.

Wow, that's still high. You either have an optimal battery efficient driving style or the luck of the draw for the battery!

Wow. Is that consistent or a one-off? (what is your median number in summer highway driving) Has anyone else come close to this on on US highway speed driving ? For an AWD, everything I read puts the real world range in highway driving about 100 miles less than that.... If it's real and...

I feel like I'm reading someone writing my experiences :) My GoM is about 220 at 80%, real range perhaps 190-200 for total battery
