? I must apologise and I was 100% incorrect in my assertion. I have a "measly" 10 cm depth of a void and so half the volume of a non-subwoofed Taycan.

I had time to just nip out and measure it whilst Scotland were scoring another try against England!

I think the difference is marginal if not the same. I have the Bose and don't have storage challenges for what I use that void for.
I have some recollection that the base sound system has a couple of inches more storage. I even think you highlighted that at some stage, when I was looking for information? So there is some difference?

Instead of just bickering about what might be the different impacts on trunk and cubby size, wouldn’t it be better if owners of the 3 (?) different sound options who are reading this thread would now post pictures (maybe with a ruler visible) in order to illustrate this and document this for when this question comes up again in the future?

Same in all.variants.

Called a 'luggage compartment floor'.

I store my public cable, screen cleaner, walking sticks and a spare tyre inflator there. Not intended for the EVSEs - this should go in the frunk if you carry it around (I don't as mine is in my Porsche Dock for home charging).
In my 2024 CT4 (base audio), I have the PMC in there, which is in a polystyrene tray. It no longer comes in a bag, so this is the standard place to store it now. Never taken it out, still in the packaging. The storage space is a decent size, as i also have my public charging cable and safety kit. @Watchesandburgers, in answer to your original question, I have seen the difference between the base and Bose/Burmester option and it is shallower with the non base options.

I wanted but the car is in the valley and I won’t see her for a week.
I miss her already

Ok. Not sure how this helps, but here you go. Picture with ruler visible as requested.
oh….I almost forgot…Bose, for reference.

One down. Two to go. ?

To rule everything out, we need pictures of every colour and sound system combination. So @Jhenson29 did Bose / Mamba, only 89 other combinations to go! And just a question, do Australians need to hold the ruler upside down, so we can read them? Or do they just have to take the picture upside down?

Hey, nice ruler! Is that Maple? Is there a Paldao option to match the Taycan trim?
I guess the holes are for the Porsche Ruler Storage package that enables you to always be ready to check the car's dimensions on demand.

Yes, but of course, the Porsche ruler does not fit in the Porsche ruler storage.

Last time I posted pictures with a ruler on the internet…. Never mind.

Here’s a pic with the Burmester. Much shallower, which is what I figured.

Last but not least.
Base (adequately base-y) stereo.

There is part of the shaped holder for the supplied charger visible. I've never used it and just realised it's not fixed and is easily removed.

No, this is not at all helpful. We were specifically asked to use a ruler ;)
