Dumped ours in Feb after 5 recalls and more than 20 days held hostage at the dealership over 12 months of ownership, not including the 3 week stop sale before a car I had paid for was allowed to leave the dealership. I looked at the 30% depreciation that was accelerating and decide to cut my...
There is always these, they aren't 20's but for the money they are hard to beat. https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/fs-bcforged-21”-wheels-goodyear-nf0-tires-tpms.24503/
The BCForged billet aluminum 21” wheels for Taycan and newer Panamera. The tires have 6000 miles on them and show 85% remaining. The wheels have no rash, no nicks and no scratches, they show as new. I sold the car with the factory wheels and tires.
Front: 21 x 9.5 +48 (factory offset +60...
All we will probably ever know is they are different. Manufacturers always claim new and improved but as per Porsche, it just means an updated version of an existing model. I believe it does indicate they are no longer producing the NF0 so if buying new always buy the latest P Code.
FYI, I’ve...
85F is not preheated, it's closer to 100F when it's properly preheated. And there's no way to command preheated, you need to make the charging station the destination, the actually station in the car's navigation POI database, not the GPS coordinates. If the Porsche dealership's charger...
This is all great except delivery of the first trickle of vehicles is first half of 2026….. THAT is a joke, I smell a repeat of MSRP gate that cratered their stock and reputation. AKA, I’ll believe it when I see it.
That’s great, that means your car with you driving it in those conditions achieved >3 miles / kwh. I’ve never seen more than 2.8 and average 2.4 and there’s nothing wrong with my car or battery. It’s due to the wheels, tires and driving style and I’m completely satisfied with my situation, YMMV ?
EXACTLY, it has nothing to do with how you’re charging, the car now has a much larger data sample and that sample is at a higher consumption rate.
Take a look at some of your trip data. Around town you probably average about 2.7 or 2.8 miles/ kWh. On the roadtrip, if you drive like me and...
Sounds like the previous owner lived on a dirt road and wasn’t all that conscious of the damage he/she was doing. I would be concerned about accelerated suspension wear. No one talks about it much but shocks and bushings are wear items and they aren’t cheap to replace.
I think a lot has to do with them not optimizing power delivery for the EPA cycle or economy in general, defaulting to range mode or having wheel/tire options that are not optimal for range.
Example, our Model 3 performance would routinely claim 295 mile range on a full charge and NEVER come...
But back to the OP's comments, I’d be perfectly fine if they stopped importing the CT/ST Taycan's once the Macan EV hits the dealers. It only makes mine more rare and potential able to hold it's value but I don't really expect that to happen.
Technically every car bought by a dealer is "made to order" but I believe you meant were "customer orders". But contrary to what your west coast greedy dealers may be telling you, that is no longer the case. Dealerships who decide to fully consume their allocations have been ordering them for...
No, never trust the dealer but you don’t need to, it’s published on the Porsche Canada website.

We haven’t been able to connect since Nov 12th, the last time it sent stats to the mother ship. Been to the dealer for the battery recall (I’m good) and the latest major PCM update and the car can now talk to Porsche but it will not accept any Porsche ID, fails authentication. Been using the...
I have 2 fronts (265/35x21) and 1 rear (305/30x21) Taycan spec tires with <3000 highway miles (7.5/32’s tread) that I’m considering selling. I had a puncture on one of the rears and am considering swapping over to different tires, just to try something different.
They are in Central Florida and...
