I came from a 911 too and, as other people said, there is no comparison to make. Totally different things.

Re. your range questions: forget the loss when idle, it's irrelevant. Still, 200miles is too risky, especially if its most on highways. But then I have two questions: why are you afraid of stopping for a quick charge (it will take the time for an espresso + bathroom)? and why 5 days no charging? Italy is full of 22kw stations, even in small towns and remote locations: first time you go for lunch or dinner you plug it in and get the extra miles you need.
Hi, I’m just thinking about most critical scenario. (Go and back without charging)

regarding a quick charge on the way back, it’s not a big problem.
During my 5-7 days stop it will be impossible to charge because the car stays in the airport (staff parking) waiting.

Thanks for all answers ! What about swich from 991.2 C2 ?
I still have a 997 C2S Cab. The Taycan has a lot of the vibe of a 911 so you wont miss much except the sound. The cabriolet has better ventilation :). The Taycan is way faster, which ruins your perception of ICE cars. I think the only thing you need to get used to is the extra length. Rear wheel steering is a must-have in my opinion, but I drive and park in some tight spaces.

Many thanks for you feedback. The car has the rear wheel steering.

The beauty of the Taycan is that you lose little to no charge when kept parked for a few weeks. I left my car in my garage at home during my recent two week trip to Sicily and the Taycan lost 1%.
On my Tesla model Y, I have been able to get the loss per week to around 3% from what initially was 7% PER DAY, but to do this I have to close the Tesla app, turn off sentry mode and turn off cabin temperature protection.
