    Roof lining material panoramic glass

    Not sure if it’s any different between U.S. and U.K., but my 4S (non-Olea leather upgrade) has a fabric covering for the interior ceiling and columns, doesn’t seem to be Alcantara. It’s definitely not hard plastic, though.

    Uncomfortable Seat

    I may have a little more fine tuning to do to get it all set optimally, but I haven’t noticed this on my 14-way.

    Ask a Porsche Dealer Anything

    Luke, here’s a question for you... a number of Taycan odds and ends (paperweights, little model cars, etc) were received by some people here from their dealers during the wait for delivery to begin. I received nothing from my dealer, so I assume this is a per-dealer thing and not directly from...

    Passenger Display

    The way I see it, I've gotten by without a passenger screen in my cars so far, so it's not a "need". But my wife wanted the screen for when she's riding in the car, so I optioned it in. Since I just picked it up I'll need some time to see how it works out in practice, but no regrets here so far.

    Taycan Waiting Room: Who has ordered and a delivery date?

    You essentially can treat the PPF like you would with paint. For a glossy PPF you can even put on a ceramic coating on top of it to get the hydrophobic benefits of ceramic and make washing your car easier. For waxing, XPEL's site has an FAQ for their PPF product where they mention "be sure the...

    Taycan Waiting Room: Who has ordered and a delivery date?

    XPEL is a brand of paint protection film. Benefits... the main one of course is protection against flying rocks and other actions that would otherwise leave a scratch. I had a 3M PPF installed on the front of my 2009 Acura TSX and after 11 years the paint there still looks solid, no chips...

    Don Breaks His Taycan - The Saga of the 12v Battery

    As a practicing EE, this is correct. If the charger is connected to the posts and is actively driving 13.9V, and if the display is based on the post voltage, then you’d see 13.9V at that time.

    Taycan Waiting Room: Who has ordered and a delivery date?

    Are you sure the rear windows will come tinted? This was something I studied for some time since I also scheduled a window tint for my 4S for next month. From what I could find, there is a Privacy Glass option outside the US to tint the rear windows that the US configurator doesn't offer...

    Taycan Waiting Room: Who has ordered and a delivery date?

    Glovis Challenge left Benicia 10 hours ago and is loitering in San Francisco Bay. Presumably that means that all cars were unloaded, so now we wait to hear from the dealer...

    Porsche Taycan 4S – My Experience At A Charging Station - SuperCars.net

    That was very poor form for the article's author to simply leave his car in the Supercharger spot while he went to the mall. It's not actually a matter of "sacred real estate" where only Teslas may trod - it would have been equally poor form if it was a Tesla parked there and not charging.
