Ordered my 4S on November 23 in Boston. Was promised a February build date and an April delivery. Car was built April 21. Still waiting for delivery. First anticipated May 27, now June 10. We’ll see how further I get bumped before delivery.

My April delivery got bumped to May 27 due to the supply issues. Now my car is built but parked at Emden waiting to catch a boat. Delivery date now bumped to June 10. So I will plant myself on this thread unless I get kicked back to July ?. I realize that I check this forum more as I get antsier...

Sadly there is also a significant disconnect from the main status page and the TYD page, with the main page sometimes being days behind on updates relative to TYD. I’m also not sure what happened to the function where a photo of the car is saved. Mine was built weeks ago and is now hanging out...

Admittedly, I find this annoying how dealers “check you out” based on the vehicle you drive in on before you walk through the door. Most dealers are guilty of it and if they don’t feel you are worthy, they don’t give you the time of day. There are clearly the trappings of privilege that many...

Did something happen to this function? My car was supposedly built on April 21, but there's been no photo available on the website.

Maybe we have different definitions of small? The quote itself is £6500 and those are notorious for being underestimates. I’m not sure I’d want to pay all that out of pocket. Looked like at least 2 panels would need to be replaced and painted. That can’t be cheap in my limited experience.

I generally favor using the Waze app when I’m going to test the speed limit. It’s usually very accurate regarding speed traps where cops are hiding. They tend to stick around at specific crossings on highways in the US.

Speak to the OP. Someone hit my Audi Q7 while it was parked scratching the door and fender and leaving a little ding. Insurance estimate was $2000. Final cost after completion of repairs: $16,000. So the suggestion of $9000 for the hood on a Porsche is far from being out of the norm. Alas, with...

God bless my wife. She’s the one who pushed me to getting my dream vehicle as she stated that I “never get anything for myself”. So even if she does this inadvertently to a new Taycan, I will thank my lucky stars.

Yes. I had the same occur. The app is somewhat delayed relative to FYD. When my vehicle was built, I followed it closely for several days via FYD, which noted that it had already gotten to port before I got an email letting me know a few days later on a Friday that the car had been built. Up...

Funny. German engineering may be awesome but German Customer Service is starting to look like an oxymoron. I had this same issue when I ordered a BMW where they promised the car in 2 weeks and didn’t receive it for 2 months. No one would tell me what was going on and I finally rage quit, got my...

Mine had production completed on 4/19. It is currently at Emden port awaiting loading onto a vessel. However, I still don't have any production pictures available. Curiously, the main overview screen just refreshed to Phase 3 (Vehicle has been produced) today. Up til now, it kept saying that...

My April delivery got bumped to 5/27. Car looks like it’s built and waiting at Emden port for the US. Anyone know how long it takes to get on the ship? TYD suggests it will be on board 4/29, but who knows?

Ugh. I wouldn’t hold my breath. I have a 2017 Audi Q7 and some of the functionality that I see on the video is actually worse and certainly no better than my 5 yo vehicle. I am often surprised how well my vehicle reads speed limit signs and updates them on my dash. The video on the Taycan...

We have definitely had dealers share with us that whenever they get less than a 10 for service, regardless of the reason, the individual most directly servicing the customer takes the blame and also can take a hit to their paycheck as a result. We have complained about Audi service in the past...

I'm in the same boat as the rest of you. I originally had a lock in date of 2/2. Strangely, the TYD says that it actually locked in March 10. Originally scheduled for April delivery. Now TYD states 5/27. Sadly, I won't be holding my breathe for that date. I had great dreams of driving the car...

Interesting discussion on 1 pedal driving. I currently drive an Audi and test drove the Tesla. With one pedal driving, my wife got nauseous with the first go around. It got a little better when a test drove a second vehicle. Personally, I don't like a 1 pedal driving and I fully understand that...

I was shocked to have scored $5k off my 4S order from the Boston area back in December. My build locks in tomorrow. I suspect this had to do with the fact that my local dealer could get me in a month sooner (Jan date) and the GM at the dealership used to work at the one he was now competing...

Well, at least they told you the reason. Several years ago, I ordered a BMW which they promised would be delivered within a few weeks. 6 weeks later, I was told that there was a delay without any reason why. I spoke to the dealer and then complained to BMW directly with no response other than...

Hello from New England (USA), I’ve just ordered my Taycan 4S in dolomite silver (still considering Carrara white metallic). I’m switching over from my Audi Q7 to a vehicle to treat my mid-life crisis! Just locked in my build date for February with April delivery. Went to two dealers and scored...
