Only answer if you have the optional Thermally & Noise Insulated Glass.
I’ve seen enough posts to motivate me to make a poll and try to get some data.
It definitely seems like I see people without issues have glass roofs. But let’s see what the data says.
Not exactly Taycan related, but maybe of interest.
I went to PEC Atlanta today, partially for my birthday (38 tomorrow) and partially to test drive cars since they’re MIA at the dealership.
Plans:
I had a 9am session in a 718 Cayman S and a 2pm session in a 911 Carrera S. I intentionally...
I added the connect app as a widget in iOS and the range units are in km. I don’t think there’s a way to change it. The actual in app units are in miles.
?
I’m trying to decide if it’s easier to have Porsche fix the app or have the US change to km. ??♂️?
My youngest got a lego set for his birthday.
It came with an EV.
Here it is built:
I took a look at the instrument cluster to see how it compared to the Taycan:
Pretty sure that’s a tach on the right…
We’ll pretend it’s a battery temp gauge.
As long as I’m posting pics…
…it also came...
I’m inspired by a post from a while ago where someone said they see like 10 of these a day. This is such a sharp contract to my experience, which is one…ever.
So I wanted to get a poll on how often people see these cars in the wild.
Feel free to add some context in a post as well.

I know not everyone likes attention with their car, but I do and I thought I’d share some recent stories.
Share yours as well.
The Photoshoot ?
Today, we went to a park. We parked in a parking lot in one area and then walked to a nearby playground out of sight of the car. We came back around...
I’ve never been very successful at the comfort access on the hood.
But I also really haven’t had to use it either, so I wasn’t worried about it.
But then I saw a video on Facebook from @Dee showing how he does it, and he was swiping much lower than I was.
So then I tried it at home…and it...
So, I’m going to be the oddball here and say I like the PCM and don’t really have any real issues with it.
I’ve read and read and read everyone’s complaints about Porsche’s software in general, and, I’m just not there.
I promise I tried. I tried really really hard to dislike the software...
I went to pick up breakfast this morning, was on my way home, Launch Control from a stoplight, and I suddenly felt a liquid either drip or spray on my right leg from above.
Looking back, I don’t think it was a spray, but at the time it felt like more than a drip, especially as it caught me off...
I have a 14-year old turning 15 in a few months and he’ll be able to get his learner’s permit.
Today I asked him whether he wanted to learn on a manual or an automatic.
“Manual”
My eyes lit up. ? “Really?”
“Well, yeah. I don’t want a self-driving car.”
?♂️
So just an FYI, in 2021, manuals...
Some meandering thoughts from my first weekend with the car.
Charging
I optioned the 19.2kW charger. There’s been a fair amount of conversation on the option in the forum, and mostly negative due to interfering with Plug & Charge as well as people seeming to generally not understand the option...
I spent a lot of time today thinking about “missing” options on the Taycan. Porsche is leaving money on the table with their current “narrow” options list.
So, what options is the Taycan missing
Wrong answers only.
Be sure to include prices. After all, we’ve got a budget to consider...
The below is USA specific.
I'll lead with my question:
Does anyone know what size conductors Clipper Creek uses in their 80 amp J1772 Cable?
Story below:
I purchased an 18kW Wall Wattz (240VAC / 75 A). For hardwiring, it comes with 6 foot of LFNC with 6 AWG THHN wires for connection to a...
Sorry if this has already been asked. I tried searching and didn’t see it anywhere.
Edit: see previous poll here:

I’ve seen some people (on other sites) speculating that the Taycan and Tesla buyers do not...
