well, 3 years in and I had an overall wonderful experience with the RWD taycan
always had a sunroof on my vehicles and don't need the 4 doors any longer
feel like the OG taycan was a conservative interpretation of the 570S, and the Mc is a lightweight carbon fibre beast
went from frozen blue to...
Thinking about getting one of the new (OEM gen 2) rear deck spoilers for my 2022 Taycan.
Curious how many members have spec'd this?
Would love to see pics, etc, thanks
Picking up my frozen blue metallic taycan from the body shop today.
They've FBM painted the upgraded turbo sport bumper/diffuser,
US market rear side reflectors (originally red),
and bottom panel of US license plate frame.
Father's Day ask, hehe
(upgraded my 2022 sedan with the turbo front spoiler and side skirts today)
So, if anyone want to replace their shredded 2020-2024 OE lower spoiler, right or left side skirts, VG condition, no scrapes! make me a reasonable offer,

Fortunately I charge almost exclusively at home, avoiding non-standard unregulated capitalism
I mistakenly charged to 100% (charger didn't respect my profile) this week and achieved a range guesstimate of 272 miles.
2022 RWD, 21" wheels, 2100 miles odometer, mostly city driving, only the standard performance battery.
Plotted and installed a couple of rear wheel PPF shark fins in matte black
(contoured same as Porsche's OE clear rear wheel PPF)
Accent seems to pinch the wide taycan rear wheel hips distinctively,
although they don't help the heater work whatsoever
I regularly transport any carryout meals in the frunk- keeps the car interior curry-free, etc.
Today I stuffed a 40lb bag of bird seed and a couple falafel pita sandwiches therein.
Any other odd frunk transport stories?
(slow day at work)

My Taycan manual (US) says there's a function to change the permeability of the sunroof with the sunroof icon on the center console, which I haven't found or stumbled upon. And yes, I have the new PCM upgrade.
The manual doesn't distinguish that this option is only available on those taycans...

I missed last week's boat (Confucius), my taycan sitting in Emden since 23 July
now I see that SFL Composer is moored at Emden and was wondering, for those that can recall
how soon after your Porsche was loaded on a vehicle carrier did you get your TYD "On Vessel" update?
viel Angst :oops:
it looks like, with any luck, my Taycan rwd production completed 20 June should be loaded on SIEM CONFUCIUS today en route to Baltimore (USA)
fingers crossed and anxious AF :fingerscrossed:
so much for my rwd taycan one month delivery delay due to the NHTSA recall and updates :mad:

Went to check the latest on my RWD Taycan which completed production June 21.
The old Ukraine parts disruption pop-up has been replaced with:

Anyone else waiting on a Taycan delivery this month?

...no update on Porsche TYD in last 2 weeks.
Anyone know how to get a hold of a shipping manifest?
