had first snow yesterday, it is clearly a more rear biased drive. What I noticed is that it would let rear slide if the steering wheel is turned. When you straighten it, front kicks in to stop the slide and pull you out.
Quick hack - take really warm water (60c or so) and pour it on the frozen parts for the drivers door. That might help to unfreeze.
preheating feature should also fix the problem, but its sad to hear that it would not work for you.
Turned a preheat on today, some 30min before the departure (had unexpexted delay before leaving), that consumed 6%!! It was -5C outside and car had spent a night out.
will try to launch preheat 5min prior to the start, let’s see if that’s enough.
Yes, using e mobility features from Porsche Connect. Used it this morning, nicely got rid of the snow from all windows before arrival. But chewed a few % for preparing the car.
in case of a solid black, depending on the dealer, the surface might have swirl marks and scratches. Either request a dealer to agree to pay for polish, or leave the car and request a paint correction. Might delay the actual pickup unless they have properly qa’d the car.
Coming from the software and hardware development world, more and more it seems that they have faulty IC components. Regular CPUs are typically well tested and the production is far from 100% success, therefore carefull qa and testing post process is required to confirm the chips are good. So it...
So, the order was placed ok Sep 19, and car arrived in late december at the dealership. Today, it was registered and the journey can begin :)
when setting up the car, the main focus was on driving pleasure for daily basis. Some of the key features:

Will get my 2021 on Monday - obviously will attempt to setup wireless carplay. Will let you know if it fails for me as well or if it goes all right and what the setup sequence is.

rolling is explained by car not having a park brake on. On Ice I would never use that as the P mode would be pretty much the same. So assuming P would be similar state whilst it actually isn’t - spectacularly bad UX example by Porsche :/
on a side note, it is always adviced to turn the front...
you will be pleasantly surprised that this method will help you find loose panels, because driving conditions are causing similar vibrations. Therefore, loud volume and sine wave generator will help to replicate the noises and dealer will have evidence on what is wrong.
