    Pay cash or finance ??

    You’re correct , most rates are very high….Sikorsky is still under 3% for shorter term https://www.sikorskycu.org/Borrow/Loans/Vehicle-Loans/New-Used-Car-Loans-1

    Pay cash or finance ??

    could be a billionaire ,buying the Taycan could be a rounding error for some. Some people are in a different “arc” of life , they have more cash on hand then they’ll ever need, for some I’d imagine it’s just “easier”

    Pay cash or finance ??

    yes, but that 20% would be there regardless(at least now)- I’m thinking it’s nice to have some extra cash hangin’ around

    Pay cash or finance ??

    I was going to pay cash for new Taycan (about 165k) given recent interest rate increase. I was able to find rates from local credit union in low 3’s. Seems foolish not to take advantage of that. Recent money market in US yields about 3% and 2 year CD’s yielding around 5%. I was thinking of...

    Consolidate Model 3 DD and 997 Turbo S weekend into Taycan....Would you?

    If your only going to have one car, the Taycan seems to be the car that does everything quite well. I sold my 911 and my A8 and went to a m3P. I didn’t miss the 911 all that much to be honest. I did miss the larger wheel base and comfort of the A8. My M3P sells this week while I’m waiting for my...

    Wild guess - Lease on a used Taycan 2020 turbo

    Money factor is horrible right now on leases. My wife just ordered a Land Rover. I asked supervisor what the money factor is currently, he said about 10%. She’s currently in a RR sport sport with a money factor of 3%. We will most likely just buy it as local credit union is about 3.2%. Money...

    Traded in my 2020 Porsche 911 (992) Carrera 4S for a Taycan 4S

    That’s awesome . I’m in a similar position with my model 3, I’m actually waiting for the wire transfer as I write this. I drove the Tesla for 3 years and actually made 1k on the deal. I got an allocation for a GTS by accident and signed the dotted line without even sitting in one. I am even...

    From 911 to T4S Plus

    You should be fine ….the battery estimates are very conservative, and even if you were operating at 80% efficiency on performance battery u should still be fine. Not that anyone buys 100+k cars for gas savings BUT there should be a significant gas savings to boot ?

    Really enjoying my car but hate charging to recommended 85%

    I have always charged my Tesla to 100% and after 3 years it has shown “normal degradation”, do i really care how this battery performs in 5+ years when I don’t own it ?

    Does anyone actually use launch control?

    I wonder if sport mode will “give” you just as much torque/HP as launch control …?

    Chalk or Carrara White

    Chalk has become common across all vehicles. I personally like the chalk but LOVE the CW, there’s a reason Porsche did the mission e in white , it looks stunning
