Same.Disappointing......but as expected.
TruthI hope this pricing is incorrect because rest in fucking piece if this thing is 185k euro, $200k+ Dollars.
I’ll wait and see, but I did have a feeling.
they haven’t announced the 4S model, which will be significantly less, but possibly not available until next year. Money is just buying time here. The tech is improving very quickly, and prices will come down pretty fast. Audi, Mercedes and Tesla are all going to compete in this space. There will be a revised Model S eventually, to say nothing about the 2020 roadster.The minimum spec seems to be like $155k. It forces you to select glass roof and some other “options”. Insane.
CNBC says that the Taycan Turbo starts at USD $150,900, and the Taycan Turbo S starts at $185k. These are evidently the only two versions to be released to start with. At those prices, the Taycan will be extremely rare on the streets of the US -- about as rare as the Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid is...Very happy I placed a deposit on the Taycan one year ago. The one on display was the Turbo S. When will all specs and pricing for all models be released?

It makes sense. It's a Porsche. Definitely the price we expected them to hit. I configured, and the Turbo (not the "S") hit $200K before I stopped.I hope this pricing is incorrect because rest in fucking piece if this thing is 185k euro, $200k+ Dollars.
I’ll wait and see, but I did have a feeling.
The funny thing is that they managed to preserve many of the details (minus the suicide doors), but the basic proportions (i.e., height of the greenhouse, windshield rake, roofline) are more miniature Panamera than Mission E. Great looking car, but no Mission E.LOVE IT
I think they got it close enough to the concept!
Not tough at all to me. It’s a no buy.I like how the car looks. I'm also quite happy about the specs. Range is enough for me.
But... the price. It is very high. I played around with the configurator and checked local prices (Finland) and what I got with options to my liking was 194k€ for the Turbo and 218k€ for the Turbo S.
I'm REALLY not sure if I can justify that in any way. I think this is a very tough decision for many deposit holders. We all know the value of the car will likely go massively downhill in the near future as well, so it is quite a tough call.
To be honest I'm considering waiting for the 4S price & specs (which I heard will be announced in 1 month) and decide then what to do. Based on initial reactions I'm not really worried about people jumping to order tens of thousands of these any time soon either, so why hurry?
Lots of thinking to do, going to Frankfurt to see the car soon. So conflicted about this as I like the car but was surprised that the price was so high. Also a bit disappointed the 4S wasn't in the launch, as that makes it even more difficult now.
