I wouldn't bother with it unless you noticed a significant drop in range. Porsche won't replace the battery unless it's less than 70%. But it you're curious, you can get a 30$ OBD dongle and get all kind of info from your car including the SOH.

I'm surprise that there was so much damage from only 115 miles of track use. I thought porsche designed the taycan with track use in mind.

Looks like he couldn't find the parking brake/park button or thought that the car was already in park. Panic when it started moving, and the pressed the wrong pedal.

If you don't have any issues with your car, I wouldn't want to roll the dice on a new one. The Lemon rate on taycans are relatively high.

I have the car fold the mirrors when the car is locked. But this only works with fob. If I lock the car using the app, the mirrors don't fold. Don't understand Porsche logic on this one.

Sure, everyone can have their own opinions. But that doesn't make it true. "Yankees suck" But they're in first place. "FSD is dangerous" But it's 3x less likely to get into a collision than the avg driver. See, you can have an opinion, but that doesn't mean that it's well informed.

Because it's really expensive. At one point it was 15k. When you can get a Tesla for 35k-45k, paying and additional 15k is a no go. That's a 30-40% increase in price. Honestly I'm surprise that the uptake was 20%. I thought it would be 5% or less.

This quote did not mention Musk, but others have and some of those had nothing to do Tesla, but rather his politics. That's why it's mention. Again, there's a lot that Tesla can improve upon in their cars such as more buttons, better door handles, fancier interior. Etc. But a lot of arguments...

I agree with you on this point. and this would apply to any cars or products I would buy. I would only buy the car if I'm content with the features that it had at the time that I bought it. Any improvements afterwards I would consider a bonus. FSD was never free, you had to pay for it. In...

Tesla FSD slows down and pulls over if you don't respond to the nag, like during a medical emergency. It will even drive you to the hospital if you ask it to. The current system use eye tracking, so if you're not looking ahead, and staring at your phone or screen for too long, it will nag you...

This is with their robotaxi fleet in Austin, Houston and Dallas. Why haven't they released it for all Tesla ? Probably will in time once they get more data as the miles accumulate. As Austin Texas is their first city with their robotaxi fleet, I'm sure they are being extra cautious. Can't...

Tesla still counts it as a FSD accident if FSD was disengaged within 5 secs of the collision. They also define collision as one that had airbag deployment, so usually more than just minor srapes. As far as Tesla taking responsibilities for FSD at at service centers. Their cars drive off...

I have 21" wheels with the pzero OEM tires. The rear lasted 13k, the front are still going at 24k. Strange that your rears lasted so much longer than the fronts. I figure it would be the opposite.

Tesla certified the Robotaxi in Texas as Level 4. No one is claiming that FSD is infallible, only that it's better than the avg driver in its current state and improves with each update. Tesla is about to release their robocab without a steering wheel and pedals. It's already in production...

If you haven't used FSD recently, that's not really how it handles hand-off. It's just doesn't just shut off in 0.0 seconds. If FSD really is 3x less likely to get into an accident as the avg driver, then I see it as a net positive. We will never get to the point where there won't be any...

I doubt it. The hate is toward Elon. Nothing will change that.

There are plenty of videos where FSD have prevented an accident through quick maneuvers where the driver wasn't even aware that there was danger. here's one: I'm not sure if you have any first hand experience with FSD, but it will engage in almost all conditions short of the camera being...

The question will be whether EV batteries are considered a wear item when they fail.

Solution is to replace the battery, doubt Porsche will pony up for that unless it's forced to by a lawsuit.

It's not that we think that Tesla can do no wrong. But rather that people that are bashing Tesla because they hate Elon due to his political leanings (DEI/Trans issue in particular) and not because Tesla is particularly bad. It's hard to argue about the virtue of FSD with someone that has...
