Hi all, would love your opinions on my build; I’m getting ready to pull the trigger in the next few days. I can’t really go above $110K so of course there are things I would normally get but cut out.

I don’t know how you plan to use the car, but since you are in the US - in the E-Mobility section I would suggest you consider adding at least the 400V DC charging option, and perhaps also the 19.2kW AC charger. My rationale: the prospect of Tesla supercharger network opening up, faster destination charging on beefier level 2 chargers, resale value, and future-proofing for a theoretical battery upgrade scenario, - where charge rate would matter more.

For my own priorities, I would sacrifice rear axle steering in favor of the similarly priced 19.2kW charger.

Thank you, I’m not really caught up on the info about Tesla making its Superchargers available. I thought those were 480 volts but maybe no difference from 400v.

Any thoughts on the color combination? There are just not many Taycansin real life to look to (none in Frozen Blue in my area) so I’m just guessing whether it willbe nice bases on the configurator.

The Frozen Blue Metallic, Black/Beige interior and Offroad design wheels are a nice combination. FWIW I avoid beige / lighter grays because I find that blue denim tends to stain the leather over time. Many folks prefer the lighter colors for hotter climates - and with the panoramic roof and no shades, that might be important for you.

If Frozen Blue Metallic is available on other Porsche models, perhaps you could find something in stock at a dealership to see how the color looks, albeit on different lines.
