    PCM won’t load (pic attached)

    I'd still make an appt and have them check it out. Just because it's working now doesn't mean it won't become troublesome again 3 days from now. Document your issues as best as possible to help your tech better understand the situation, especially because machines love to magically work when IT...

    Bay Area Taycan Depreciation

    Cool stuff. Can you ask it to compare the Taycan depreciation to Porsche's broader lineup excluding its 2-door sports cars? Panamera, Macan, Cayenne. I find the last section title a little misleading: " Why Taycans depreciate faster than traditional Porsches" Did the AI pick that title, or is...

    Porsche Lease Pull Ahead Program

    Just based on general conversations I've seen here (and had with broader EV owners) - it seems that most folk who buy an EV don't go back to gas IF they have a home charger. The most regret I see with EV purchases is from people who don't have access to home charging or other very reliable...

    Ferrari Luce EV

    Is that really the case, though? Now the comparisons will be "lack of drama/excitement" AND "it's also ugly." Or, if anything, I would imagine a lack of the former argument would be because: "it's so ugly, I don't even care to compare it." I don't think the comparison to gas cars matters to EV...

    PCM won’t load (pic attached)

    I've been having my own issues with the PCM/Bluetooth the last month, finally got annoyed enough to schedule a dealership visit. They said there's no troubleshooting steps I can go through besides bringing it in. So, you gotta bring it in.

    Porsche Connect Ending

    Thanks for correcting me. Looks like this is related to the Bluetooth issue I've been experiencing recently. phone connects and disconnects rapidly the entire drive every drive. I made an appt for next Monday and just added this to the list of symptoms.

    Porsche Connect Ending

    My free 1 year ran out at the end of April. I've been operating fine the last month, but I didn't expect the app to be literally useless without a sub. Seems weird that Porsche wouldn't try to incentivize us to keep the app on our phone for broader purposes (marketing, etc.). I only used it for...

    So, has there really been no credible news…

    I don't have space for a 2-seater in my life currently, but I absolutely want to test drive this WHEN (not if!) it becomes available. Exciting to see this picture.

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    I don't disagree with what you're saying, I just think the journalism is poor when folks don't include context such as all the context you so wonderfully wrote. Short term, Porsche's problem is poor EV sales and likely recalibrating themselves back to their roots with a combustion engine focus...

    [opinion] - hmmm…VW/Audi/Porsche may be in trouble…

    This cycle of raising prices and losing customers is going to come to a head at some point. And the raising prices is something these articles never touch on. I wish they would, because "Porsche is losing customers and EV sales are down" is such a hollow take without context.

    New Rival: AMG GT - 4 Door Coupe - 1169hp

    I think they nailed blending futuristic with suave in that design. Love it. Glad to see someone pushing hard on the future of EVs instead of cowering back like others.

    Taycan 18 way seat Discomfort

    I'll add my comment to the pile for folks in the future who search for this thread and want to read opinions. American here, so: 6'0, 165lbs. I have the 18-way and love them. They feel sporty, and I feel held. This also means they're a bit firmer. They don't feel as feathery, cushiony, soft as...

    Cayenne Vs Taycan

    I think you meant to say Cayenne.

    So, has there really been no credible news…

    My two promotional takeaways from their promo video were: 1. Look at how amazing this car sounds! LISTEN TO IT!!!! 2. It accelerates at the perfect speed. Who would want to accelerate faster than this? The first one sounded like standard Porsche marketing (though my friend, who's way more into...

    Power on/off button.. Long press time?

    See my post right above yours. Step out of the vehicle and lock it with the key. That turns the car off.

    Power on/off button.. Long press time?

    I just get out of the car and press the lock button on the keys - that turns the car off. I also hate how long you have to press the button in the car, but it isn't needed.

    Apps often says windows are open

    Vehicle status was last updated 3 hours ago. I think that's your culprit. It won't get updated until your app recontacts the car successfully. I just got back from a dinner outing and when I checked opened my phone in the restaurant, it showed my car unlocked and my door open. Because it's last...

    To 'extended warranty' or not to 'extended warranty' - that is the question!

    Companies will always offer insurance at a price where on average they profit. It's all whether you feel like taking the risk or not, but on average youd spend more money on the insurance than not insured. On average.

    Software‑Defined Vehicles: Rivian VW Joint Venture Completes Winter Testing - articles

    Yeah I'm also confused. What's th TL;DR here? It reads like AI slop word salad. what is this beyond fluff hype news? Also as a Tesla owner for 6 years I am so incredibly over this idea of car as a software. My ownership experience hasn't changed at all since purchasing my Model Y (besides the...
