I found this pretty complete summary of the Porsche V codes V200 etc. For those of us not in the know. Thanks to manitou202.

With all of the questions around tracking an order, and having just been through this, I decided to put together a general guide. Everyone who...
With the amount of interest in posts on the @artdept thread on "Taycan / Porsche must have accessories?" related to Radar & Laster Detectors with the Sound and Thermally Insulated glass both prompted me to create a thread specific to this topic and investigate further by reaching out to "Rocky...
The Taycan in the World Car of the Year short list of 3 cars not once, not twice, but three times. :cool:
Press Release: http://www.worldcarawards.com/files/2020_WCA_TOP_THREE_FINALISTS.pdf
Also an entertaining video that led me to this article from MotoManTV
Note that this is a concatenation of the videos available in the Porsche Good to Know app. But I know that that app is not available in several countries so I thought this video may be useful to some outside of the USA.
Warning over 1 he long. :cool:
A small roadtrip as compared with Don's @louv Lap Around the USA but TheDrive didn't buy the car, so what can one expect. ;)
I will try to post the update here too. But here is the opening article.
We're Driving a Porsche Taycan Turbo S from Atlanta to Amelia Island. What Do You Want to Know...
InsideEV has A comparison with Model 3P and Model S P100DL non Raven.
The few interesting things I saw were the nice table of stats from Porsche Canada and the fact that even a 4S is quite compelling in numbers. Never mind the actual handling which is why I'm getting the car...

Fun except:
See the near uncontrollable enthusiasm of Nikki who l have watched for over a year on various EV news drive the Taycan. She has driven many many EVs and you can see how impressed she is with the Taycan.
A great summary is at offset 21:00 speaking of Angeles Crest Highway
A few anomalies are...
Pretty decent review of the Taycan 4S driven in winter conditions in Norway.
I only read the Google translation to English.

This may at first look seem like a comparison with a Tesla Model S, but looking more you can see its simply an article on the Taycan Turbo S and how the Porsche DNA is shown within it. I found it both sensible and inspiring...
Well I wanted to share this with other current and future Taycan owners.
Suncoast Parts has a roof rack and several other accessories like wheels.
The roof rack is <$500, not bad I think. They also have a bike carrier attachment.
Looks like the roof size similar enough to the Panamera.
Note...
Being the proud performance-oriented brand that they are, Porsche could only sit back and watch Tesla parade around at ludicrous speed for so long. Time for them to enter the full-EV business in a big way, a way that only Porsche can. So let’s head out onto the track with the Taycan Turbo S.
My...
My apologies that this is an older track video from Sept 2019; however, I did not find a link on this forum and I really appreciated that the Taycan Turbo S was driven by a Porsche Engineer, Ulli from ABS & Recuperation team.
See Tom Voelk (of Driven Car Reviews) & Russ Mitchel (LA Times) at the...
I know we in this forum are above Drag Strip Comparisons of the Taycan ;), but this one is nice to rate it as the 12th fastest accelerating car that Motor Trend has tested. :cool:
And two positions above the Pl00d L+.
Full article / feature...
Reasonably good video from Brooks at DragTimes.
the issues which he clearly pointed out was a unprepared track and pretty significant winds.
But he clearly says the reproducibility of timings was quite surprising. He seemed noticeably impressed.
So at least in the USA the Taycan can be fitted with all season Continentals or Michelin Pilot Sport 4 summer (more like three-season) tires for the same price.
Also there is a winter tire option that @louv has as he lives in Maine.
I am in sunny and sometimes rainy California. Don't travel to...
I have seen this rumor in several different web postings. I for one am very disappointed that any car magazine (esp Motor Trend) would be testing a prototype Tesla against the Taycan before we have a "clean" comparison with a Tesla Model S Raven 100D charged to 100%, in Ludicrous+, warmed for...
