Hey all! I just took delivery of my Taycan Turbo on Friday. I did it at my home, as my dealership is closed for the standard showroom delivery process and I had this car shipped from the east coast. Enjoy the "unboxing" video and the first-time quick walk around.
hi @kwrudy123 the car is stunning. What interior do you have? Chalk or Crayon?

cheers
David.

The day arrived when I had the time, Corona precautious ways of living permitted and also the dealer actually having a tester Taycan 4S ready for me all came togehter in best way imaginable (with fantastic weather in the Greater Copenhagen area Denmark).

The car - a pretty basic 4S - standard (small) battery pack, standard seats and stereo. Upgraded leather, 20" inch alloys, rear axel steering, innodrive and minor visual tweaks was what the dealer had in store for me for the 3 hour testdrive.

Read the test drive impressions @ Long wait - Long drive - 4S shows what a fantastic car it truly is.

The car looks great. Here is a video of mine after I completed the ceramic paint coating:
Wow. How much does this cost? I'm assuming you want a top of the line paint/body shop?

You don't need to go to a paint/body shop for this. There are many places that do body wraps and ceramic (nano-coating) paint protection. This one was done at Elite Finish in San Diego. You can see their website to learn more about what this is: https://www.elitefinishdetailing.com/.

For the complete car, including all painted surfaces, windows, plastic and rubber finishes, plus wheels, it was about $1,750, which includes paint correction...a process in which they buff out any of the micro lines that appear in the paint surface from dealership car washes, etc. before applying the ceramic coating. This is for a finish that is very hydrophobic, meaning it repels water and dirt, and is warranted for 5 years.

Thanks for the tip.

I got my build changed from Volcano Grey to Gentian Blue about one day before it was locked. Now I wait. Estimated time of delivery...mid to late September.

I did the entire outside including glass and plastic taillight and headlight covers and even the wheels. It makes the whole car hydrophobic.
