Would you buy a Taycan it’s these marks on the exterior?

Would you buy a Taycan it’s these marks on the exterior?

How much would you assume the cost of fixing it?

not sure if it is a dealbreaker for me or if it’s acceptable marks

 

[ShiftyWolf]

Personally I would not buy that car, as there are better maintained examples available and lots of discounted new or gently used Taycans around. From the Porsche maintenance costs I've seen, if you have to accept that many issues to get the car to your price point, that might not be the best purchase for you.

YMMV

Cars are made to be driven, not to sit in garages.

No.

But…

Garages were made for cars to sit in.

If the price was right, or you could negotiate a discount to cover the cost of repairs to these areas, then…….yes.

But, as other have said, there are a glut of other used Taycan”s available to consider.

Exterior seems fine, damage on the seat will be a no go. Even with heavy discounts, I could not live with a car with interior faults and damages

Difficult see the damages clearly in your pictures. But from what I can see, none of the scratches or stone chips would stop me negotiating to have then]m repaired v]before a sale. The seat scratch looks like a good upholsterer can do wonders with. You also can see a lot of scratches on the B pillar. A respray on the bonnet and bumper can be negotiated. It is no more than expected from cars driven on winter roads with lots of salt and sand.

More important though is if this car is sold by a Porsche dealer or not. I would be disappointed it a Porsche dealer would offer a car with these visible issues for sale in that state.

Not even for 60 000 usd? The car is equipped with bigger battery and more options

How much do you think it would cost to fix?

Not sure if there is much in the seat, you don’t think exterior would be an issue?

Are you familiar how much it could cost to fix?

This car is sold private, I can get it for 60 000 usd. It has bigger battery and more options. 63000 km driven.

would you have taken it?

Sorry, I’ve no idea

Probably you don’t even see those small scratches when you are standing next to the car and you don’t know they are there.

It’s not a brand new car. In a few years and >60K km’s those things happen. Most often by others. So if the price is right compared to other Taycans, I could probably live with it. Personally I would not have small scratches like that repaired.

Would you say 60000 usd for PBP, matrix beam etc is worth it? It is without sunroof and ambient light
