The one caution I have here: get a pre-purchase inspection from a shop that isn't invested in the sale. I no longer trust CPO as a gold-standard, as I bought a low-mile CPO that ended up a track car at the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta. The expensive brakes were cooked.

When I saw “coupe” I was ready to trade in right away, until I saw 4 doors. I want a two door.

It doesn’t matter. There is no reality where buffing the paint caused a battery fire. It was either unrelated, or some induced by some other shop accident.

I am sus

Wow. Gas station sushi?

I’d look at getting a battery from a crashed Taycan.

I have a lot of questions as this hasn’t been my experience at all. I don’t doubt you though. - What PPF product was used? - Did the PPF have any inherent UV protection? - How long before it was replaced? - Any protection on the bare painted surfaces, ceramic or similar? - What color was the...

That was pretty amazing, TBH. "I have no experience" and ends up doing a better job than Porsche centers I've used.

I went from a 21 to a 23, then a 25. The 21-23 jump was a very incremental upgrade, and then only because I went from base to GTS. I'd really try for a 25 if you can, the J1.2 is a lot better.

I never buy a car (or anything else) for other people. I couldn’t care less what people think.

I went to Porsche Palooza in Arkansas one year in a Taycan. It was about 50/50 between interested people with questions, and muttered sneers.

I run the electric p zeros now. They last around 11-12k at most.

Yeah!! Team battery hostile!

Not at all. Take it to a Porsche dealer and ask them for a “buy bid.” Unless they don’t want the inventory they will make you an offer. It won’t be as good as the secondary market.

What we have on J1.2:

Was yours easily reproducible? Mine is 100% reproducible until today when I took it in, which was frustrating. Assumption here is cold car in the morning exhibits the problem, 45 mins driving with the heat on alleviates it.

And of course, I do.

Yep that sounds exactly the same. I was thinking of a similar fix to your temporary one, jamming some kind of felt in there (preferably non adhesive) to stop the audible vibration. Did your temp fix fail to work, or did you just want a cleaner repair? (I was thinking the felt would be out...

Here’s my deal. On cold mornings I get an irritating rattle from the oval LCD dashboard. If I pull on the right edge, it stops. The fix here is obvious; tighten things up and/or pad with felt. I took it in this morning to have a Porsche shop fix it and of course, it stopped happening on the...
