Yes; in fact the pockets on the cover can still be tucked over the mirrors even when they are folded.

It's true that one shouldn't cover a dirty car and I don't. I cover it after a wash and if I've just had a short drive I will use spray detailer on anything that might get a bit dirty and then cover. If the car get's really dirty I won't cover it again until after the next wash. Since I don't...

Take this with a grain of salt, but I asked my SA about factory PPF at the time I ordered my car. I was told that it wasn't available but that even if it were he would advise against it. Apparently more than one customer complained about the quality of the factory PPF installation on other...

So, I know now why I never noticed the spoiler icon before. The main reason is that, from my seating position, the steering wheel rim blocks it from my view unless I move my head around to purposely look for it. Also, I usually drive in individual mode with "Sport" as my chosen driving setting...

The short answer is no. For me, the increased range would be irrelevant and to give up all of the known great qualities of the Taycan in hopes that a new car company, with their first-ever vehicle, will have fewer "unpredictable software issues" and no other problems seems like a real crap shoot.

Sorry to hear of your troubles. So, it's probably my suspicious nature, but Porsche cancelled your order and allocated it to another vehicle? Porsche did this on their own? The reason I'm wondering is that it's not unheard of for unscrupulous dealers to "steal" promised allocations to give to...

That looks very nice. Just to be clear, though, the only additional leather provided by the door trim option is the piece in the center of the left-hand picture as well as a small end cap at the top of the door which isn't visible in any of the pictures. All the other leather parts shown on the...

Refer to post #2 in this thread. That post doesn't actually show a Taycan door but it's an accurate depiction of the general areas that are done in leather with the "door trim in leather" option. As noted in the post, those areas are all basically hidden when the door is closed. IMHO, I don't...

I've always used an indoor cover on my Porsches as they provide a small level of mechanical protection and keep dust off the car thus reducing the need for frequent washing. I have the Porsche Tequipment indoor cover for the Taycan. Because it's not overly bulky, it's easy to put on and take...

The overall wear appears normal for the mileage on a heavy car that has been driven briskly, but the chunk of rubber that has come out of the tread does not. My guess is that missing chunk is more likely related to a road hazard of some kind, perhaps running over a sharp stone or other debris.

Honestly, I've never noticed it either except when operating the manual function. But the OP has the photo of it while he was driving so I'll have to pay closer attention.

I think you probably mean @madeyong's first post. ;) BTW, according to Porsche the Taycan spoiler deploys in three different stages; at 56 mph, 99 mph, and 124 mph.

Yeah, that icon indicates that the spoiler is deployed. If you want to see it activated while you are sitting still, go to the Home icon in the central display and select Settings, Vehicle, Manual Cleaning Position Spoiler and the icon will light up. This procedure is mentioned in the manual...

In the case of someone who only had experience with Tesla EV's and powered charging doors I can understand the problem. My guess, though, is they represent a very small subset of the folks on this forum and that most people have had ample experience with ICEV's and fueling them. We have an Audi...

Just curious. Do the folks forgetting to close their charge port doors have issues remembering to replace the fuel cap and close the fuel filler flap on on their ICE vehicles? Can't even remember the last time I did that. ICE: Remove the fuel nozzle, hang it on the pump, return to fasten the...

Great question. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me either. :facepalm:

Yeah, well it may or may not be. All we know for sure is that the purposely designed vents get blocked off because of the hardware required for the powered charging doors. Is that meaningful? Absent data, that's anyone's guess.

That would be my assumption about the vents too; I just don't have any technical or engineering analysis to substantiate that assumption. I don't know about the wheel design working in conjunction with the vents either, but from what I've read generally, the more open the design of the wheel...

I remember seeing those videos. They were interesting but I was disappointed at the time because, IIRC, there was no mention of the vents behind the wheel wells. I assumed it was because the Taycan being tested had the power charging port doors and therefore there were no open vents to reference...

I suppose it depends on the kinds of roads and under what conditions one drives the car. So far, I've had no issue whatsoever with road debris out of the vents. Since I was aware this could theoretically be a problem, though, I extended my PPF coverage to include the doors.
