For anyone interested in STEK and its hydrophobic properties (so it does not need an additional layer of ceramic coating), this is what "drying" the car looks like after a wash :D (using a leaf blower...)

The factory-provided "security" splined wheel bolt is no real security at all. One can buy a splined socket for $40 on eBay With a socket and battery-powered impact wrench, it's seconds to remove weel bolts. It was no deterrent to the would-be thief who first snagged the splined bolt on my...

Don't buy Porsche "security" wheel bolts. The Taycan's splined "security" wheel bolt is not a deterrent to thieves. One can buy a splined socket for $40 on eBay It was the first bolt removed by would-be thieves on my own three-month-old MY2021:

Hang tight, the Macan is the next electric Porsche

FWIW, I'm happy with the Clippercreek HCS-D50 - 40 Amp Dual Charging Station, Level 2, 240V, 25-foot cable, Hardwired It was simple to install hardwired to a 50 amp breaker. The 25' cables are pliant, easily manipulated, and long enough to comfortably reach two vehicles in the garage. The...

Hi Forum, My 2021 Turbo S does not retain a customized HUD setting. The customization process is quite straightforward using the PCM and the customized HUD displays fine ... for a while. Within a drive or two; however, the HUD reverts from a customized two-pane layout (e.g., with compass...

I spoke with Redwood City Porshe yesterday (near San Francisco) — They received only two Turbo S allocations in 2021, and have received only one MY2022 Turbo S allocation (allocated in Q4 '21)

re 1-hour for a key fob, from the dealer:

Porsche: always selling and always offering high-touch customer service. There will be some synching involved between the new fob and the vehicle. Not a lot of time, but some. Fully expect my dealer o offer me a cup of Joe and show me how the two fobs are configured for different drivers and...

Just received this regarding my MY2021 Turbo S delivered on Dec 31 w/o a 2nd key fob: Dear Mr. Waters, At the time of your vehicle delivery, we informed you that due to the ongoing global semiconductor shortage, your vehicle was delivered with only 1 handheld transmitter. We...

The two taps on the fob are needed for those of us whose vehicles were delivered with a faulty interior motion detection alarm. Two taps on the fob w/i two seconds locks the car with the interior motion detector disabled. Normally this is needed only when something is left behind that moves...

Agree with you on this point. It's great that people and animals are picked up, but hard to know it's happened with eyes on the road. My reaction was the same as yours and I looked for a way to bring it up on the HUD.

One of the best features of the car. Love it - best at low speed turning in the hood, three-pointers, and u-turns. All cars should be so lucky.

It did. Gave it a deeper, more lustrous color. This is the before:

Deposit in Jan 2021, allocation in May 2021. I had contacted every dealer from LA to SF - not one had an allocation or received one during this time. My dealer is Redwood City Porsche, the highest volume dealer in Northern CA. They worked "allocation trades" trying to get a Turbo S. Mine was...

PPF complete! Elite Motors did a spectacular job. I love the depth and luster that was introduced to the red by the STEK. (original post here). Here is a shot of the final result:

I did not. I'm banking on all the fragile stuff breaking in the first four years of factory warranty. I did buy the Posche Scheduled Maintenance Plan for $1,830. Covers scheduled maintenance for four years/40,000 mi.

I only purchased Tire and Wheel. Regular insurance will cover the windshield (with deductible), I've never lost a key so see as a low probability, and dents are also pretty rare. Tires and wheels, on the other hand, have been a plague for my two BMWs and two Chevy's over the years. I expect...

Hi @maddie , Pre-tax?: No sales tax. Sales tax only on the vehicle. 5-Year Premier?" It is for 7 years: "Porsche Protection Plan Multi-Coverage Protection" Dealer?: Porsche Redwood City, CA Plan is attached.
