    GTS Ride Quality with or without Active Ride

    PAR is always on. There is a deeper menu that allows for that additional ability to negate Lean. Thats what makes people feel the difference

    2027 Taycan Turbo GT by Manthey spotted on the ‘Ring

    As someone that does business in China, its not slave labor, but Government subsidies/support and a different culture that make it impossible for Western OEMs to compete. The J1.2 battery is good. it seems China is really moving forward in charging speeds right now

    It's a beautiful dealership. Taycans seem to be more for family transport than for enthusiasts that will go to these events. That wiessach is PTS Dolemite silver. Strange

    2027 Taycan Turbo GT by Manthey spotted on the ‘Ring

    I estimate around 100ish Weissachs produced. It's strictly a PR move to say they have the Ring record. That being said, I know 2 other Wiessach owners that want it. The issue is it will probably be $80 to $100k for it

    2027 Taycan Turbo GT by Manthey spotted on the ‘Ring

    The current Turbo GT aero has the dive planes, its not as visible due to the cover. I don't think there has been a Porsche with exposed dive planes that wasn't a Manthey kit. The Turbo GT Weissach was developed at Manthey. I also didn't know how much weight a roll cage adds to a car. The...

    I use Kettlemen if I'm really low SOC and will charge to 100%, if there is no line out of respect for other drivers. I'll go across the street to BrovoFarms. 800v cars charge so fast that you can get back to the car fast enough though

    GTS Ride Quality with or without Active Ride

    It negates weight transfer effects on suspension, but you still feel the weight, especially in Sport Plus at higher speed.

    Project Purple - MY2026 Taycan CT4

    It's good practice to build a strong relationship with your service advisor and service manager. I try and seek out ones that are "Tuner Friendly". It helps for minor things like spacers so they are on your side. I get mine pastries, submit favorable reviews, etc to establish that relationship.

    You will love it. It's a beautiful dealership used for training and events by Porsche. Spend more time on the second floor to explore

    Bahama Yellow PTS 4S. Now detailed and PPF'd

    Beautiful!! Stek is my favorite PPF, most clear, least orange peel. It comes ceramic coated, but that fades after 6 months. Coating in general doesn't stick on PPF for very long anyway.

    If you like Asian food, its the place to be. The time you are going to be in Socal will be the worst for traffic. This will help your range, but will make it a longer trip

    Watch the Burbank stations, long lines. Try and charge to 85% (limit at that charger). Santa Anita is mess too. Always a line There are a lot of EA chargers down recently and not being repaired fast The charger at Harris Ranch is pretty good an lets you charge to 100%, 6 chargers

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    Appliance EVs jumped in price by approximately 13% within a week after gas prices surged. We were looking at ID4s across the country at auctions, within a few days they were all sold. I don't believe the average porsche buyer is affected by gas prices

    "BYD plans 20 Canadian dealerships within a year as 6.1% tariff deal opens the floodgates" - article

    That or thier Customs import quota. I deal with this when importing certain commodities from China to the US. If it hits the shore and the quota has been exhausted for the year, an additional 100% tarrif is assessed, or I store it in the bonded warehosue to till the next year.

    Best thing to happen to Tesla. Shanghai is Teslas focal point, but BYD will just buy the Canadian market with incentives. Unfortunate for US OEMs
