    Porsche sales 1st QTR 2026 -article

    I absolutely don't! Obviously, Porsche has lost money the last couple of quarters, but the fact remains, Porsche is historically an extremely profitable car company. My point is, and I think you agree, Porsche has priced themselves into a corner where customers may think twice about sustaining...

    Porsche sales 1st QTR 2026 -article

    Whatever. If you doubt those numbers, and I don't given Porsche’s well-documented profitability over the years, you're welcome to take this info with a grain of salt. That said, I believe the data is very credible as ChatGBT gathers its info from public records like P&L statements and formal...

    Porsche sales 1st QTR 2026 -article

    I was curious about Porsche and its history of constantly raising its prices year over year, so I asked ChatGBT for some metrics regarding Porsche’s profit margins. Here they are for you to digest: Model Price Range Est. Margin Est. Profit per Car 911 $140K - $250K+ 40 - 50% $60K...

    Porsche sales 1st QTR 2026 -article

    Maybe, finally, Porsche has hit the limits of what their customers are willing to pay for a car. When I bought my 2021 Taycan 4S the sticker was $138K. Now, the 2025/6 car with the same option set cost $160 which is honestly absurd.

    Freeze date in 2 weeks. Here is the spec update

    Great config with the Spyder RS wheels. My only comment and suggestion would be to eliminate the Night Vision option. I bought it for my 4S and in my opinion it’s basically worthless, especially considering the $2600 cost. It almost never comes on for me and I live in a semi-rural area with...

    That price though

    Offer them $125K out the door — they’ll be lucky to get that.

    Not a D*m Issue!

    Outside of the occasional recall I’ve not had a single issue with my Taycan and I‘ve said it before and I’ll say it again: recalls are great! It tells me Porsche is taking care of my car. It’s getting little upgrades to protect my investment. It’s tweaking issues that will prolong the...

    Think about buying a Porsche taycan for a daily driver

    Don’t sweat it. Recall schmeecall. Consider those a free upgrade! The car is literal definition of the perfect daily driver.

    337,000 km (209k miles) in J1.1 Taycan - long term review

    One question: how many brake jobs did you do and if so, was it just pads or rotors too?

    Electric Sport Sound option - should you get it?

    An utter waste of money. Take your significant other out to a really nice dinner.

    On the fence

    I would urge you to grind the dealer more aggressively to get a better deal. Remind him that the Taycan and EVs in general suffer a 50% hit in depreciation (as evidenced by your i4). Better still, buy a lightly used 2024 for significantly less than the 2025. The performance of the 2024 is...

    ARB6 recall is ready.

    Does the OTA software update correct the issue as identified in the recall notice we all got? It took 3 days, but after multiple attempts, I finally got my 4S to successfully download and install the update. I have nevertheless scheduled a visit to Porsche Marin for next week in any case to...

    WTH??? Is anyone else sick of getting RECALL AFTER RECALL???

    Personally, I love recalls. They extend the warranty, fix stuff and reset the clock, what's not to like?

    2021 or 2022 Taycan 4s?

    Both cars are fundamentally identical. It’s really down to how the different cars are equipped and optioned. Buy whichever one is the best deal and whichever one suits your fancy.
