With continued work at home and very limited need for driving any car, our Taycan 4S has become a garage queen. So, we have decided to sell and utilize the cash for other purposes. The car is in like new condition with approximately 2800 miles. The car was delivered by Porsche Tysons Corner...
Car has 2800 miles. Always garage kept and hand washed by detailer who installed full body and windshield PPF. There is one very minor chip in the paint on the driver's side front fender and the front bumper was repainted by the dealer due to some scotches they caused while the car was in for...
Due to continued work at home and limited need to drive even locally, our well equipped 2021 Taycan 4S (ice grey/chalk) has become a garage queen. So, we have decided to sell it and reallocate the money to other priorities. I'm looking for advice on the best ways to sell it for a fair price...
I got an email this week that it was time to configure the Lucid Air Grand Touring I had reserved when the slots were first announced a couple of years ago. In the interim, I purchased a Taycan 4S last April. The price of the two cars is about equal, about $140,000. I love how the Taycan...
I tried my heated steering wheel for the first time today. I would call it lukewarm, not hot like in some other cars we have owned. So, I tried the heated seats. On level three they were warm, but not hot like some other cars. I guess the idea is to make the driver more comfortable, but not...
What WH/MI setting did you use in ABRP? The default seems very high, something like 365 when I can see 270-280 in my 4S sedan on highway driving In the DC/NVA region. The default will calculate more stops than needed, but that can be good since you wont need to charge as much as predicted at...
I want to close the loop on this in case anyone else may be experiencing the same problem with their Tesla Tap Mini. In addition to the issues of the Taycan 4S not charging properly with a "vehicle overcurrent" error on the Gen 3 Tesla Wall Charger, I started to notice that I also was not...
I think all cars will have camera systems like Tesla’s Sentry mode in the near future. I just watched a review of the BMW iX and it has a similar system. Sentry mode in our TM3P recently allowed us to track down the owner of the car that backed into our car and damaged the fender. That saved us...
So, about 10% off MSRP. The question is how much value to add for modifications, such as PPF, which cost about $9K. That probably does not mean much to a dealer, but may be meaningful to a private party buyer.
I‘ve had my Ice Grey/Chalk 4S since April and it only has 1500 miles, and that is only because I have purposefully found reasons to drive the car on weekends. I am still working from home. The car has full Stek PPF and wheel/wheel well coating. I have been debating whether it makes sense to...
On the motorized charge doors, I'm pretty sure the opening is smaller for the motorized unit than the manual unit, so the fender sheet metal would require a major change.
I have the passenger screen and have not found it very useful. I could see how it could be useful on a trip when a...
As a follow up, my car was finally ready yesterday. So, 8 work days in the shop for the recall update. My sales advisor told me they only have one "gold" level technician qualified to work on the Taycan and that they have many Taycan lined up waiting to get into the shop. I noted that I would...
I am looking for feedback on dealer service experiences in the Washington DC area.
I purchased my '21 4S from Tysons Corner in April and have been very disappointed with the service department. When I took the car in for the first big software update back in the late spring/early summer they...
In addition to the Taycan 4S we have a Tesla Model 3P. I had reservations for a Polestar 2 and Mach-E GT, but cancelled both of those. I currently have reservations for a Lucid Air and a BMW iX. My main next EV consideration for purchase will be an SUV replacement for our X5, so the rumored...
I currently have a 2021 Cayenne base loaner while my 4S is in the for recall update. Carplay in the Caynne connects much quicker (less than one minute) and more reliably than in the Taycan. In both cars the audio that is playing is paused when Carplay starts, which I agree is very annoying...
