  1. CHALK Taycan Club

    Love this color (only after I saw it in person). My GTS
  2. Some first impressions of new MY2025 Taycan test drive

    How did it handle? Did you notice any differences? I will endure all user interface complexities / absurdities if the car still handles like a proper Porsche. Cincy
  3. Gateway Control Unit Replacement

    Thanks. I'm not keen on having seats and center console removed. Nothing ever gets put back the way it was from the factory. Has anyone experienced an issue with the unit? What are the symptoms. I subscribe to the theory that if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Cincy
  4. Gateway Control Unit Replacement

    I just got a message from Porsche (in app) that states that they would like to replace the Gateway Control Unit in my 2024 Tacan GTS. Anyone know why this is about and what problem they are trying to solve? Thanks Cincy
  5. How many would buy again?

    My GTS and I are still on our "honeymoon" but after a few weeks of driving I have zero regrets about ending my string of three Tesla Model S's and finally getting a real driver's car that also happens to be electric. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Cincy
  6. Taycan GTS vs Tesla Model S Plaid

    After reading the user manual and sitting in the car for a few hours working through it, I am pleased with the end state. I wish the software was more intuitive and all options were at most one level below the menu but that would be difficult to do without the 15 inch screen in the Tesla. Not...
  7. Taycan GTS vs Tesla Model S Plaid

    I agree with the sentiment about Tesla's FSD. But I really wouldn't buy a Porsche if I wanted the software to drive it. I want to BE the car. Cincy
  8. Taycan GTS vs Tesla Model S Plaid

    I don't plan on making any changes to the stock car. I love it as is. In the Plaid, I felt like a water skier being pulled along by a speedboat without much control. In the GTS, I AM the car. Cincy
  9. Taycan GTS vs Tesla Model S Plaid

    I just traded my Plaid for a Taycan GTS. In case there are others contemplating a switch, I wanted to give you my initial impressions. 1. What I miss from the Plaid: neck jerking acceleration with just a touch to the accelerator. Super simple configuration software with every choice no more...
  10. 2025 Taycan prices

    Thank you very much Sergey. That was incredibly kind of you. I agree. Not required. There are more than enough options to compensate for it. The chalk body is gorgeous. Black and burgundy interior is lust worthy. The seats fit my 5'9" body like a glove. To cut to the chase, I closed a lease...

  12. 2025 Taycan prices

    I see the wisdom in your argument. In fact, I have found a 2024 GTS on the lot that is loaded to the gills with options. It is listed at the same price as MSRP for the 2025 4S I configured. I could be happy with this car. I am retired so range is not a big deal to me. This is a fun car and I...
  13. Watch collectors - let's talk watches here!

    Taycan newbie here. Will be placing my 4s order later this week. I've been a watch geek for a very long time. I'll throw one of the collection in here. Classic Cartier tourbillon in rose gold. Cincy
  14. 2025 Taycan prices

    Working through this option now. Also considering downgrading to a 4S. I really don't think I need the extra horsepower. My Plaid's 1020HP made me wet my pants every time I actually used it. My priority is the Porsche handling and fun factor. The Taycan can never match the software / range of a...
  15. 2025 Taycan prices

    There are eight 2023 -2024 models with less than 10 miles sitting on the dealer's lot. EV prices are softening on most makes. It is a remote possibility I agree but definitely worth a shot. I only need 10% to be a buyer.
  16. 2025 Taycan prices

    I'm going to move from a Tesla S Plaid to the new model 2025 Taycan. Tesla of course, never negotiated prices (I've had three Model S's, a Model 3 and a Model Y). What can I expect from the average Porsche dealer if I ask for 10-15% discount from MSRP if I spec a car and order it? If you have...
  17. New owner questions….

    Very helpful thread for me. I'm on my 3rd Model S and am contemplating a change to the 2025 Taycan. I am moving in a different direction because straight line speed (1020 HP) has lost its lustre for me. The Model S handling is very bad. I have high expectations for a Taycan Turbo.
