My windshield was replaced a few months ago for $3,500+. Perhaps, Safelight is now capable to repair/replace, they would not touch it when mine was damaged. Please keep us posted.
Features of comfort access do not work consistently. The indent only works 50% of the time - door handle does not always open as intended. I gave up and just use the FOB, it seems to work reliably.
On a fairly new 991- 911, I had a leaking hydraulic chain tensioner. I was told "They all do...
It may be that since the last financial crisis ('08 -'09), we have been spoiled with low interest rates and low inflation. With the inflation the world is experiencing post Covid, it is not surprising that PAG will be raising prices to achieve the their historical margins. IMO, if one perceives...
Known issue - from the Taycan manual:
"Be aware of braking behavior in rain or snow
In heavy rain, while driving through water or after
leaving a car wash, the brake disks are coated with a
water film, the braking action may be delayed and
increased pressure may be required."
Initially coming from cars in the late 60's early 70's (when my driving career started), nothing was 100% reliable. I have found that driving the Taycan in heavy rain equates to brakes not working as they should. I routinely apply brakes in heavy rain on a regular basis - this seems to mitigate...
Whether or not the car is totaled is not known as it yet is to be adjusted. A reasonable approach is when the vehicles fair market value less its salvage exceeds cost of repair, the insurance company will total it.
Airbags, seats, lights, frame issues, battery components or the whole battery...
If one is not prepared to experience at least 15% per year in devaluation for the first 3 years, then move on to the used market. This is the price of "new". Do folks think they are buying a collectible? Younger folks may believe that cars are appreciating assets, but unfortunately they are not...
Every survey I have completed including service visits and Porsche Drivers Council, the camera issue is highlighted. Can't do much more than this! I am sure that PAG knows about this issue.
You are better off without the camera - substandard - a real Porsche disappointment. I will not even use it anymore, the rearview mirror works just fine.
Interestingly, I read the responses to the OP's post. Having owned several 911's and a current GT3 owner, I think I am qualified to opine!
The Taycan is great vehicle, truthfully I look forward to getting in to it everyday as my DD. It still excites me, more so than any 911 I have ever owned on...

I also received the Driver Council survey. I agree with your assessment. It was not stated if some new functions would be available to existing models.
My view on the survey's intentions were:
Determine if users were aware that FOD was available
Assess the level of users knowledge of the...
