I had the option of going this route, but decided on passing on the front bumper and doing the CF side mirrors and sides/front lip only instead. I feel that the stock bumper headlight integrated vents match the Mission-E more than the SportDesign bumper. Also it seems like the stock bumper sticks out a bit more whereas the SportDesign is pushed in a little.

However I do like the rear bumper CF lip spoilers though, but it seems like they don't make it a standalone option?? Hopefully when the 2021 configurator is released they'll make it so :)

Gorgeous. But you went slightly different and went gloss black vs body color on lower louvers on bottom front, yes? Which looks amazing and better approximates what mine will look like although mine will be matte black...
Thanks @Schlossj Yes I wet for the Gloss Black pack on front, side and rear. IMO the pack is striking with the Dolomite Silver, Black Gloss wheels with matching body colour, the BIG yellow boots and red decal on the doors.

Locked my order way back in Dec 19 and with no other Taycan's available to compare, it was a long 7 months of anticipation, and staring at my CGI example on the configurator. However on collection day, she (Evie) met all my expectations and beyond.

Very happy how this gorgeous beast sits on the road and has great presence and attention when parked next to our Tesla counterparts :)

Ah...I’m getting the 4S...so I guess mine will be black like the rendering?
That part looks different on 4S. It's the only visual difference between a turbo/turbo s and a fully specced 4s. This part cannot be changed. That front lip on a turbo/turbo s looks a lot more agressive. Wonder if it would be possible to mount it on a 4S

For that part

4S: black plastic
Turbo: painted in exterior color
Turbo S: carbon fiber

Indeed, but it's not just the color/finish. The shape is also different. On the turbo/turbo s the left and right part are not connected. On a 4s they are. On a 4s the front lip looks more like it's 1 piece. on the turbo/turbo s it looks more like 3 pieces. Once you see it, you can't unsee it.

Yes you can see the difference here. I still think the 4S looks good but slightly less aggressive

Yes still looks good... untill you notice that all the pictures you bookmarked as stunning specs are all turbo/turbo s and the one you have on order is a 4S ;) It's just bummer you can't tick this as an option on a 4S

Although both of these are without the SportDesign package - those make the difference less stark IMHO - meaning the SportDesign front fender is more aggressive already it takes away from a plainer bottom

Agreed but spending an additional $40-80K for a better fender and 100 more HP just wasn’t jiving in my ROI model

Hey, frist of all love this spec, well done!! I have ordered a volcano gray 4s with sport package and porsche exclusive wheels (not mission e) painted in body color... a bit torn between a) stick with this option or b) go with high gloss black sport package and black paint on wheels.... what do you guys feel/suggest?? Appreciate your thoughts!!

Man that’s a hard question - it’s purely about what style you like - contrast or no contrast. For me, I like the all black wheels. But Dolomite is lighter color so higher contrast. Good luck - both colors / styles will look amazing.
