    What is this option for and what is best practice?

    I had those boxes checked and then unchecked them and I really cannot tell a difference. But that's probably just me, brain dead.

    PCM

    PCM is entertaining but sometimes not in the manner in which its intended

    What is this option for and what is best practice?

    Tried to follow some other threads regarding the question "do you use the power button or key to lock the car" and honestly its a bit confusing. Methinks it really doesn't matter. One thread led to the discussion of this feature in the PCM (first option listed) and I am still not clear what...

    Recuperative Braking- how much range does it add?

    Not a gimmick if you consider how it impacts the driving experience, which is what it is ALL about.

    Two years of ownership and still in love

    I have same spec as the OP, but my range is maybe 280 if I were to charge to 100% (which I rarely do). My vehicle is about 15 months old and I only charge at night, so I don't prep the battery. I don't really need a lot of range but wondering why such a big delta from others?

    Price

    I got 2% (and a Porsche baseball cap) but my order was put in about 18 months ago. Doesn't hurt to ask. Maybe at least you'll get the cap.

    Taycan GTS vs M5 Competition

    Whenever I see a BMW of any variety (including "competition"), and I know the owner sees me, I imagine him (most likely a him) thinking to himself "damn, I could have bought a Porsche." Or maybe he even says "should have." I could be wrong. Its what I would be thinking if I bought the BMW you...

    My Taycan changed into a ugly looking mini SUV

    Oy Vey. And just to be clear, the car image in "Park Assist" is, in fact, your car, but the color may not match your vehicle. Its not a defect.

    How does your Taycan feel after 15-20K miles?

    Now that I understand what I'm doing…..

    For the people who have tried both options, how much did I screw up by not speccing Rear Axle Steering?

    I love the RAS feature because I am not used to such a large car (911 alumni). It feels like the car spins like a top (slight exaggeration but not far from wrong). Really helpful in tight spaces. And I echo the owner who mentioned its affect at high speeds - it feels like traffic is standing...

    Suncoast Screen Protector Set

    Thanks for this. I've been hesitant to do this. Instead, I keep an eyeglass polishing swatch in the tray on my car door and at traffic lights (when needed), I clean the screens. Its takes a second, keeps me busy, and actually gets the endorphins flowing as I realize what a beautiful car I am...

    Done! Put a 10% deposit on my 2024 Taycan allocation.

    If I leased my 911 I would have had to forfeit it after 36 months. Instead I drove it 12 years and sold it at auction for a little less than what I paid for it. I essentially drove a six-figure car for almost nothing for over a decade. YMMV and the Taycan is not a 911, however it may be the...

    I tried the Zunsport grills and I like them

    I've found sh*t wedged in there as well. If you have a link to the product I'd be appreciative. Thx

    Not sure about racing sticker stripes

    if it was about cost then we would see racing stripes on a Rolls Royce or Land Rover

    PCM not working

    This happens to me every so often while I am driving. At first I freaked out. Then I realized that, as a teenager, I drove a car without the need for any of the shit the dashboard provides me. So now I don't freak out so much, and carry on. The only thing I am missing is the music until it...

    Not sure about racing sticker stripes

    I put Carrera S on the side of my 911 running across the bottom. Looked great and felt right. This car doesn't seem to be in that same class of vehicle. Its an exceptional family car IMO and markings look ridiculous on it. Just my 2c. YMMV.

    Negotiating

    You would want to think twice before accepting any of the dealer offers (pre-paid maintenance, tire or wheel replacement/protection, etc etc). I was offered about 5 of these programs as I was doing the paperwork. I don't think any of them are a good deal although other owners may differ with...

    CAR PLAY AND KEYS????

    On my car it takes a few seconds after startup for the vehicle to even recognize a phone is connected to it. Then the Apple Car Play icon appears and you can tap it to initiate it.

    Unwanted music

    I did not think the PCM had a music source of its own. I think PCM is sourcing from Spotify, Apple Music or other streaming services (tied to your phone). You and your son may share a subscription to a service and that's where you have to make your adjustments. That would be my initial diagnosis.
