Also regarding options and CPO using 2022 as an example:
To summarize the market mechanics that create this exact scenario:
The Baseline Floor (~$59,000): A 2022 non-CPO model with only a basic Premium Package sits at the bottom of the market because it competes with a massive inventory glut of...
Really a 2025 Taycan charges at a 2x rate vs a 2024?
I tried Gemini and challenged that
assertion:
You are completely right, and I apologize for that confusing metric. For a first-generation 2024 Porsche Taycan, Porsche officially rates the 10% to 80% DC fast-charging time at 22.5 minutes.
2025...
Although for many owners the reduction in level 2 charge rate is rarely in issue, it is a downgrade, and I’d like to see the charge rate restored. If not, a good resolution would be to extend the battery warranty to 15 years/ 150k miles.
I see it as similar to having trouble with one of the...
Here’s my non-expert thoughts on this situation.
1) Did the vehicle have an accident history?
2) Was it purchased as rebuilt/salvage?
3) Did the seller disclose an accident history?
4) If it was in a collision under your ownership, the insurance company did not complete the repair, so you might...

I like that there will be Taycan competition from another german manufacturer. The attention in the space will help focus customer attention, possibly even sales.
Taycan and its competitors are likely to continue to be high priced, aspirational, halo, niche vehicles.
I would think a Taycan...
2 Rims, Front cover, sensors, maybe a headlight, a bunch of supports, mounts, brackets, frame straightening, the whole side, the rear fender cut out and welded in, a ton of finish work, the side trim, doors, and support pieces as well. Frame work in the rear, headliner, door panels, traction...
The price for the S7T in China is unbelievably cheap, although a quick search did not show optional equipment.
Generally the software suite is very well done ( according to very limited reviews) with ADAS that is more advanced than most anything else in the industry.
The CLTC range which is...
If it was purchased at an authorized dealer, you have 60 days to swap them out.
I think its possible that the Taycan might feel wonky on full tread all season, soft sidewall, everyday passenger car tires. It should ride more softly, but the 5000lb EV with lots of roll stiffness will lose its...
Here’s an Edmunds appraisal of a fully loaded 2020 Turbo S (Dealer Retail). Dealer retail reflects the market value cost of replacement as you had purchased it.
Looking at 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo S CPO vehicles for sale with lesser options (High option/low mileage Taycans in great condition sell at a premium) I see mid 80’s, your car has little or no warranty left but is more highly optioned.
I think $85K-ish plus sales tax is fair...
Although they correctly assert Porsche seeks to restrict Porsche service and maintenance to their dealer network, there appears to be 3rd party solutions to at least the Cayenne oil change reset asserted in the lawsuit...
It is an unfortunate situation but a quick check on the discounted price of PCCB rotors shows €7600 per Carbon ceramic rotor. If you add in pads, actuators, etc plus labor, its probably more than €20,000 without the break they’re giving you.
I’m thinking of trying the Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 in the Panamera ND1 optional larger size:
Size: 275/35ZR21 (103Y) XL
ND0 Porsche Panamera
Size: 325/30ZR21 (108Y) XL
ND0 Porsche Panamera
I’ve seen a couple of members use this specific tire with OEM staggered 21’s successfully without...
“Warranty administrator”? So is this a 3rd party warranty?
I assume the reference to the Porsche warranty is the “Battery Warranty”, but it’s not clear.
There are other threads as well regarding CPO, CPO warranty extensions, Porsche branded service contract, other service contracts of various durations, and of course “self-insuring”.
In one of those threads someone had posted this link:

It’s generally a good policy to decouple daily transportation, HVAC, and general personal use for the majority of any countries population.
Edge case use for toys or towing (which will likely be solved with solid state batteries) are not significant enough to matter.
Case in point is the...
