Actually, having a really hard time deciding about the SportDesign options because of poor website performance. The Configurator is probably getting hammered.
Configurator is pretty buggy. Might have to wait a while for Porsche to work out the kinks so as not to be so annoyed at contemplating spending north of two hundred G’s and being nickeled and dined for what should be standard charging functionality. Seriously charging extra for software that...

Turbo and Turbo S models. Not the best color options. Easily configured over $200,000! Wow... giving me significant pause....
I kinda missed the range factoid. Was it 450 WLTP? If so they may have missed their 500km mark there...
But still plenty enough for my needs, especially if they can get EA going and update to 350kw charging...
I was watching the countdown to zero... and now wait again for 45 more minutes. They are playing the Paulo video though!
“It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.”
Not expecting any “love”, but I did place my name on a no deposit “list” local dealer is keeping July 2018. Last month I got the Porsche participation certificate in the mail. Maybe I will get contacted in 2020.
In the meantime I will look forward to real road and track reviews and get to play...

What do you think it will end up being for the top trim level once production models are tested?
We know Porsche is very conservative but even now a few days before official release we don’t know how fast it launches. This is of course not the only metric of importance and I trust that it will...
I remember reading in one of the numerous reviews/drive-alongs that there will be an option though not as aggressive as Tesla’s, as well as an automatic mode that will determines your intent. Ie... aggressive regen at a racetrack around corners but not at straights, none in day-to-day driving maybe?
My wife’s MX has needed wiper fluid, new wipers, and uhhh... that’s it for regular maintenance.
Then there are the several warranty items....
I didn’t even think of the transmission fluid for the Taycan. Maybe the service interval will be pretty long since it should be much simpler than...
Sure, or gloss black like Porsche likes to offer, but we don’t know that. Would be a good option maybe but would still be a separate piece. Maybe it needs to be present for access/service reasons.
He was referring to the glass capsule around the four LED headlight elements. The flat transverse black insert below the headlight assembly will not be paint color per PAG_J1...
If you read some of the articles posted here, some (but not all) of the journalists describe a 600+ hp model and a higher optioned 700+ hp model (Tufbo and Turbo S). They might have a better idea than your cleaning lady!
