Agree - silly to go to a Porsche dealer with a Taycan and get charged x2 or more than at e.g. IONITY.

Time to call the local Porsche dealer then and get on the waitlist!

Great choice of color. You'll have a fantastic summer driving it around California!

Also the PRG location with the most questionable approach to customer service (front office, that is). Gladly taking my business elsewhere going forward.

Feel like traffic is standing still when changing lanes even without RAS!

I used two brokers - Novo Insurance and First Point. The most competitive quote via them was Covea Insurance, far cheaper than Admiral. I have an EU driving license and limited NCB though, so could be that you're better off with one of the mainstream carriers.

I’d think Porsche produces cars that are somewhat more reliable than Tesla, in particular over the medium/long-term. Having said that it sounds like extended warranty makes sense for peace of mind.

Spain in my experience has better provider access than many other countries. For DC charging, you can use Iberdrola, Efimob, Zunder, Wenea, Ionity and potentially others.

Would have been cool if you could activate the equivalent of launch control for a few seconds when already at higher speeds, i.e. provide an acceleration boost on the highway etc.

UK owners who can buy and maintain the car through their company should really not complain about depreciation. As others have noted, it's been a steep curve recently but there's a huge supply increase relative to a year ago. When I bought mine last summer there were around 85 Taycans listed...

Struggling with this currently. Very tempted to test drive a Turbo but know this will make it tougher to resist an "upgrade":)

I am approaching the New Vehicle Warranty expiry date this summer, and am considering getting an extended warranty policy. Given that it's around GBP 1k/year I am trying to figure out whether it makes sense or not given that the battery is covered for eight years. Which are the most common (and...

UK is a particular market given that it arguably has one of the most favorable tax regimes for EVs purchased by companies, but at the same time Taycan seems to (as of recent) have the steepest depreciation curve here.

Around USD $1250/year with USAA UK. The policy has the added bonus of anyone I give consent to (no need to formally add as additional driver) being able to drive the car + no annual cap on days abroad.

Short of rear axle steering, I managed to find a used 4S with pretty much the spec I wanted. Could probably have bought it for a better price six months later but would then have missed all the fun last summer.

Coming up to nine months of ownership, and it still puts a smile on my face. Only thing I would perhaps do differently is to get a Turbo instead of opting for a 4S!

Congrats, and nothing like "unwrapping" a new car and the first few weeks of getting to know it!

Will definitely consider the Boxster once the EV version is released, and am curious about pricing expectations for a decently optioned build. Read that the starting price will be around $80k / GBP 65k, i.e. considerably higher than the current ICE version. Given that the EV is slated for 2025...

Couldn't agree more, strikes me as a quickly put together app with little logic to the menu design and functionality.
