    Both cars are wrapped. Not sure I see any peeling on the white.

    Still happily married after 4 years

    Yes matte wrap. Yes it will be 4 years next month. No regrets, BUT I tell people that my electric Porsche is like sky diving for me. I did it once (solo at that!) and enjoyed it....but I'm never doing it again. I'm mid 40s now, a relatively well off business owner, and wanted to try a 6...

    Still happily married after 4 years

    A couple times I've gotten comments about how it's great that I drive this car everyday. The thing is...I don't have another car 🤣.

    Still happily married after 4 years

    Pic after my monthly wash. 4 years/37K miles on this 22 and although she hasn't been perfect, I accept the imperfections because she's actually been pretty great to me.

    TOP THREE THINGS WE LOVE ABOUT OUR TAYCANS!

    1) Smooth ride + instant throttle response 2) Beautiful interior screens and controls setup 3) 3.5 years of ownership and I STILL turn around to look back when I walk away

    POLL - How much would you pay for Porsche Connect

    My Taycan still drives like a Porsche without Connect and CarPlay more than suffices for my tech needs (and is MUCH less glitchy). -22 Taycan 3.5 year owner with 29K miles

    Charging not possible. First time I’m ever charging.

    I use the same charger as the OP. I have a 22 RWD Taycan that I bought new in March of 2022. I had zero charging problems (I mostly charge at home given my solar panels that produce a lot) until a few months ago at 24K when I had the same "charging not possible error." I also btw have a...

    Stick or Twist? Do I get a replacment Taycan or look elsewhere...

    Curious what was the charge for the 40K service? As an aside, I've had my 22 Taycan for almost 3 years/27K miles and have had about 1-2 issues a year (recalls, charging not working, etc...) but they've been quick turnarounds with the dealer and I love the car so much that I went all in recently...

    How reliable (or unreliable) are these cars.... really ?!?

    It's evident to me from this forum and as a first time Porsche owner that there's a style of ownership that is different from my own (not that there's anything wrong with that). I typically buy a car and hold on to it for 7-10 years/100K miles. Any money I get from it after that time period is...

    How reliable (or unreliable) are these cars.... really ?!?

    Most unreliable car I've ever owned AND the most enjoyable car I've ever owned.

    Turtle/Tortoise Icon

    I've had it once and suspect it was the cold. Car had been parked outside overnight, battery temp was 58F, state of charge was 55%, and it occurred as I merged onto the highway and I aggressively accelerated (basically pedal to floor). I was limited to about 40mph for 5 minutes and then it...

    120000 km with taycan ct in 3 years

    ?. Either you're very unlucky or the Taycan is the most unreliable vehicle in the history of vehicles.

    120000 km with taycan ct in 3 years

    Can we get a list of what has gone wrong? How much, if any, did you have to pay out of pocket? How long do you plan to keep the vehicle and how many kilometers do you hope to get out of it? Taycan is my first Porsche and it seems from following this forum that many change cars after 2-4 years...

    Do I need to extend the warranty?

    I've read through this string as well as the other recent warranty string and I'm convinced that an extended warranty is best for my scenario. I plan to keep the car for another 7 years or so. I put about 10k a year on the vehicle. I've had all the typical recalls and I still LOVE this car...

    Do I need to extend the warranty?

    Wow I just spoke with fidelity (very nice over the phone) who informed me that for California vehicles the warranty HAS TO be purchased via the dealership. That being said I was just quoted in writing what I interpret as a very reasonable price of $6764 for 100K miles platinum United care...

    Do I need to extend the warranty?

    I've had a similar experience. Must not be good business for them if they're not interested.

    Do I need to extend the warranty?

    There's been variable mention of members using fidelity for extended warranty with reasonable pricing and minimal hassle for claims. Can anyone confirm if this is referring to the company based out of Deerfield Florida? I'd like to compare to what Porsche Dealer might offer. 22 RWD owner here...
