    "VET0ED - California Bill Would Electronically Cap Vehicle Speed to 10 MPH Over Limit" - Article

    This will never pass, and is probably one of the dumbest bills to be proposed in a long while. Aside from just obvious reasons, there's so many caveats why this would never work and would instead be potentially dangerous for everyone involved...

    Paddle Shifters / Additional Dial On GT Model

    Nah the Audi Etron has this as well.

    Are 14 way seats comfortable?

    The 14 way seats are comfortable, but not super soft or fully adapted to a back. I've been in Q8 Etron and those front seats are amazing, but that car is a comfort driving EV whilst the Taycan is more sport oriented. Some people find the 18 way more comfortable, some people find them less, doubt...

    not an issue - false alarm.

    Let the man be, he never grew out of go-carts.

    not an issue - false alarm.

    Scrap the car, nothing can be done about it. I'll give you a shiny nickle for it to take it off your hands though. Heck, I'll even throw in a sack of freshly minted wooden pennies.

    How many wheels have you curbed?

    0 so far, don't really park next to the curbs that much though since it's there's plenty of parking in the US.

    Tesla Cybertruck beats 911 while towing a 911

    I think we both know that this stunt is not sway buyers, but rather just to reinforce the opinions of people who own a Tesla and are deep in the weeds of "BELIEVING" in it that they have chosen the right product to believe in. It's nothing more or less. To me this "cool, i guess?"

    Tire skipping on sharp slow turns.

    Perfectly normal, depending on tire size and wheel base size this can happen specifically at sharp turns at low speed.

    Battery Range: Is 100% full charge of 188 miles the best I can expect?

    Taycan Base + Performance Battery Plus + 19 wheels = typically my range guess 270 to 280. I drive spirited when I can or want to and usually stays about that. Honestly really depends on many factors and driving habits. Bigger question is, does it feel like it's lasting you long enough between...

    Porchse taycan ticking noise

    That is NOT a normal sound... find a better dealer and have them fix it.

    Renegotiate pricing?

    In general I would agree, but there's nothing quite like your butt cheeks being the first to wear in the seats.

    USA Taycan insurance.

    800 and some change yearly, I use Connect through Costco though in CA they no longer offer new policies so it's grandfathered in at this point. 500 deductible, 100/300, total comprehensive, uninsured motorist, etc. Me and wife are drivers, I have 0 at fault accidents.

    Surprise!!! Here's an OTA update. Sorry about the cold pizza

    This takes me back to why I design products in general. This was always the concern, the separation between the engineering team that does the backend development never really connects with the guys that design the front end around the end users. Ah... software... love and hate it all the same.

    Surprise!!! Here's an OTA update. Sorry about the cold pizza

    I just find it super weird that the map updates happen so often and always WHILE driving. Like... if you're going to update the map or the software maybe don't do it while I'm possibly using the navigation and on the road (since it does freeze and stop all navigation stuff while it does the...

    "Porsche Taycan Class Action Lawsuit Includes California Customers" - Article

    That's fair enough. The basis on the claims seem to be specific numbers for every point. In that it's not that feature's DON'T WORK, just that they don't work fast enough or well enough for what the consumer says/expects. I think that won't be good enough to cause a real lawsuit to go through...

    "Porsche Taycan Class Action Lawsuit Includes California Customers" - Article

    Basically a false advertisement suit which is stemming from the bigger problem in modern world of software: "release early, fix in production." No big company is safe from this, just that it looks terrible on you when you're a brand that's meant to show you're good at the reliability thing...

    Is the new 19.2 kW on board charger worth it?

    Yes, this is possible, just need a wall connect that supports that circuit. Any Wall Connect EVSE charger that is rated for a 60 Amp circuit will deliver the 11 kWh.

    OTA Software Update (July 17, 2023)!

    We would like to give you guys an update that there will be updates later. I wonder if these guys have meetings to schedule meetings.

    Home charging

    If you're going with a wall install, ditch the Porsche PMCC EVSE and go with a 60 amp breaker direct wire installation. Get a TESLA or any other EVSE that supports this. I did my own breaker + hubble socket install and if you have a conduit from your breaker to the wall then doing it yourself is...

    Taycan Sales Declining

    It was bound to happen eventually. It doesn't mean much as they made quite a few of them world wide anyways. I doubt this has anything to do with supply chain issues and more with demand, lots of other choices. The used car market prices have stabilized and are not the same/close to newer car...
