Hi Everyone,
I have been reading the extremely helpful posts on this forum for a couple of months and finally joined to ask a question. You all have been super helpful as I have researched and fell in love with this car.
My plan was initially to build a custom order highly spec’d 4S and that is what I test drove a while back. That then led me to all the helpful posts about a high spec 4S vs. Turbo and moved me to a moderately spec’d Turbo.
Well fast forward and dealers have no allocations for me until “maybe” November or December, plus production delays and chip shortages. I wasn’t in that much of a rush but happened to come across a low mileage 2020 CPO Turbo S in amazing condition at a dealer out-of-state and at a very aggressive price. So that is now what I’m doing and am in the final stages of the purchase process. Thanks again to all of you for your immense help in getting me here. I never thought I would be in the Turbo S trim for my first ever Porsche (although been a huge fan of the brand forever). Suffice it to say, I’m a little excited….
Now to my question. I tried searching but did not see this addressed anywhere. The car was initially sold in July of 2020 so there should be about 21 or so months left of the Electrify America free charging. The selling dealership is telling me that it does not transfer to a new owner. If that’s the case then it is what it is (and I don’t plan on many long trips at all and will charge almost exclusively at home so not a huge deal) but I looked up the press release when this was announced and it said the cost of the fee charging would be included in the price of the car and I did not see anything saying it’s non-transferable. Wondering if anybody has had any experiences with a used Taycan (CPO or otherwise) where they were able to use the balance of the 3 years from the initial owner. Thanks!
