Not so many Neptune Blue GTS's. I have been to Gelato 101, but I can't remember driving the Taycan there. Presently everyone is crazy about An's Hatmakers Gelato at Del Mar Plaza. We've driven past, but the line is always too long.
Congratulations on driving your Taycan Turbo GT all the way...
Agreed, people of every world view will eventually realize the beauty and practicality of EVs. I have 30k miles on my Taycan GTS, and driving it is still an occasion—every time. And this is with two Carreras in the garage.
But, there is still a long way to go. Consider the uproar of the online...
BMW is bringing out the i3 EV for 2027. The specs look really great at half the price of an entry level Taycan. Personally, I love my Taycan. I can't imagine daily driving an SUV, crossover or otherwise. This Porsche/VW group approach sounds really disheartening...
Thank you for the information. I agree that the extra mileage is quite helpful on a trip. Around town, doesn't matter. Interesting that your '23 GTS would get 240-250 mi range. I've never seen that. I have 21" Spyder wheels, air suspension. I can't think of anything else that would affect my...
My ‘23 GTS is a superb car, and I’ve had no issues (except car-play is slow to start). But, at 90% charge, I see ~220 mi range, meaning that at most I can go 200 mi on a trip between charges. For the trips we do, it would be sooo much better if we could get a solid 300 miles. We often go from N...
OK. The CarPlay-Porsche Connect interaction was the idea of the Porsche Tech. I have no idea how the information is transferred.
I would love to hear from someone in the Porsche IT department
CarPlay is supposed to be able to pull the state of charge from Porsche connect in order to assist in navigation and charging. A few months ago, this stopped working, and Apple Maps now daily reports that the state of charge (through Apple Maps) may no longer be accurate. To fix this, I was...
The Tire Rack review was carried out on a Tesla. It compared 8 or 9 different tires both subjectively and using measurements like stopping distance. I was going to replace my OEM P-Zeros elect with the same tire since they had given me great service for 26k miles. But, the Continental Procontact...
Porsche had a technology/complexity moat against competition for Performance - in that competing with Porsche required competitors to take on the same mechanical complexity Porsche had mastered - and while they might choose to purse that - it was hard to see how they could be profitable doing...
I hope your tires work out well. I am about ready to replace the Pirelli P zero OE tires on my '23 GTS. The car is at 25,000 miles (40K kilometers), and the tires have worn evenly and given good service. I think I will just buy the replacements. They are about the same price as Michelin Pilot...
I had a scrape on my rear bumper—someone did it to my parked car. I took it to Amatos here in San Diego, an excellent repair shop. They repaired or replaced the bumper, but then they had to send it to a Porsche dealer to reprogram the electronics. The cost is high. Just the reprogramming was...
I have previously left my Taycan plugged in with a 65% charge on the Timer; however, with a recent update that doesn’t work any longer. The first night it charges to 65%, the second night it reverts to direct charge to 100% grrrrr. I haven’t yet fig out how to overcome this.
What blows my mind is the Xiaomi beat all other EVs, including the Rimac, in their first try at Nurburgring, in their first ever car. How is that possible?
