    "Porsche’s EV Gamble: The Taycan Depreciation Crisis - Explained" - video

    That's why I took almost all options, not only for fun but also for "investment". Not that I want to sell my car but if I sell the car, that passenger display (for instance) would make all the difference for someone else, maybe they pay even more than market value just cuz it has all the options...

    WTH??? Is anyone else sick of getting RECALL AFTER RECALL???

    I never ever had the experience that I had to charge fast in order to get somewhere in time. If it takes 30 minutes, fine. If it takes an hour, also fine. But usually it's just 15 minutes from 30-40% to 70-80% and off again so charging speed is not as important as Porsche wants us to believe...

    THIS…! Is Doug Demuro’s review of the ‘25 Taycan GTS ST

    This guy is even worse than Shmee. Followed closely by Supercar Blondie. The Holy Trinity of Annoyance.

    Yes, I'm familiar with that. They update the BMS to accept the larger battery as well. Had an i3 myself and they're brilliant, well made and still look modern (although more than 10(!) years old!). I think in 10-20 years time there will be all sorts of companies that replace bad batteries at a...

    Anyone else track the value of their car on WBAC or similar?

    If you want to sell it you just made a bad investment, like all modern high-end cars are, still no one is forcing you to sell it. If you need to sell it you couldn't afford the car anyways.

    It's about what it's worth to you, not what it's worth to others.

    WTH??? Is anyone else sick of getting RECALL AFTER RECALL???

    I'm just glad Porsche takes things seriously. I'm very glad there are recalls, no problem at all. They fix things for free, the car gets better, what more do you want?? My car have been in the shop for not more than 10 days (I guess) in five years time, including 20.000 km service, fixing charge...

    Nah, only the old ones. Decades ago, driving a Porsche was something special, only for the rich. Porsches were pure, not that complicated, not very common driving machines. Now there are so many Porsches, everybody drives them, everybody can afford them, there are way too many Porsches nowadays...

    If you don't want to lose money you shouldn't have bought it in the first place. It's just funny that people focus on money instead of pleasure, the main reason one should buy a car in the first place imho.

    Could be worse though: https://cars.usnews.com/cars-trucks/advice/cars-with-the-fastest-depreciation?slide=18 Those are all 2022 cars, ALL Tesla models have 50+% depreciation! Taycan isn't even in that list. Count your blessings and regret selling your Taycan. I'm not. 🥳

    You only have depreciation if you sell the car. I don't have any depreciation but a lot of appreciation. Still, after five+ years. I just love it. 🥰

    Mystery screw?

    How?? These tools are specifically designed to have the most grip of any tool, even better than torx. Or you just have used an inferior quality tool...🤔

    Mystery screw?

    Nope, they don't look like that at all. Here's one: It's more likely from the cabin, probably seat rails. I wouldn't take any chances and check the seats immediately. Better safe than sorry.

    Mystery screw?

    It's from a mechanic with a good sense of humor.

    New MY2026 Taycan 4 CT Received - Oak Green Neo (also selling it :D)

    That doesn't say anything. Porsche changes part numbers all the time. Upgrades, different manufacturer, etc.

    Ciao '22 Taycan, hello '18 McLaren

    Right. Why did you go to an even less reliable car?

    WRS0 software available

    Got the letter today for my 2020 car so it'll be OTA soon. Nice! PS Note: lock your car to receive the OTA update!

    Wheel alignment

    It happens when you do a lot of city driving where you steer a lot and also much charper. Due to the Ackermann steering the inner of the tire will wear faster but it's great in fast corners. I mainly drive on the highway.

    Wheel alignment

    It's better to ask instead of assuming. At least that's my motto.😉 No, I haven't. I bought new wheels (with contis) and the wheels with the "old" Goodyears are now stored and are worn evenly (9000 km). I measured them with a tire gauge. Same as the Pirellis so I already knew my alignment was on...

    Depends if it's a warranty item. Pretty obvious if you ask me...
