    Would you buy a Taycan again?

    I would, and I did! Traded my 2020 for a 2022 GTS and got a great deal, even though the new car was some over sticker. Love the Taycan!

    GTS (USA) – my thoughts after 10 days

    It doesn't. I had the front wind shield protected right away - tired of freeway junk shooting up and causing cracks and dings. My GTS has heads up, and it works just fine.

    Massage Seats!

    I had them in my 2020 Taycan, and miss them in my 2022! I don't know for a fact, but I doubt they are mechanical, but air cushion powered...

    Additional dealer markups…??

    Just saying... If you respond to that with anything else but GFY - you are nuts.

    Any Etron/Etron sportback owners on here?

    If you can - sell it! We had a 2022 E-tron sportback (quite beautiful in and out) for two weeks before we asked the dealer to buy it back. Horrible app performance - no charging available, and unresponsive dealer service. They even told us - you got an Audi, what do you expect?...... enough...

    Digital license plate anyone?

    What am I not getting here... You want to PAY for a plate that shows the same information you get on the standard license plate but you have to upkeep the battery for it and pay $800??? WOW! :headbang:

    GTS Build

    The volcano grey is awesome! I have that on my new GTS. Sparkely in the sun and cool in the dark. Chalk interior will need to be cleaned every so often (my old 2020 Turbo), but looks great too. I now have all black - easy. Good choices overall!

    The Iconic 911 vs The (future-iconic) Taycan

    Brace yourself, no - they will be left in the dust! :like: My 2020 R8 V10 RIP. Have never had so many issues with rattles, electronic glitches etc, just horrible. Constantly in the shop. Big disappointment. My 2020 Taycan, and now my 2022 is far exceeding expectations. You just can't trade that...

    Glass rooftop issue..

    We are in SoCal, so LOTS of 🌞HOT days, sometimes above 110F. I have driven my 2020 Turbo with the roof tinted for almost 2 years. 3M ceramic 5% (limo tint) with no issues. Regarding the glass breaking due to tinting, I have heard that too, so when I went to tint my new 2022 GTS I asked the guy...

    Going from 4s to 911 - any regrets?

    Is that you Bill G? LOL

    Stumbled upon in stock 2022 Taycan GTS for MSRP! Any Build Feedback?

    I just checked - yes they are LED Matrix headlights!

    Stumbled upon in stock 2022 Taycan GTS for MSRP! Any Build Feedback?

    My car had 6 miles on it - no demo. We got a "launch" on the i4 M50 as well - 11 miles, delivered to the dealer the day before...still some tape on it. I guess we are lucky! Thanks! Whatever the launch package included. I honestly see no headlights difference on this new GTS compared to my 2020...

    Stumbled upon in stock 2022 Taycan GTS for MSRP! Any Build Feedback?

    And it does have a heads up display! Kind of cool! Full disclosure - I had the side and rear windows tinted 35% ceramic today.

    Stumbled upon in stock 2022 Taycan GTS for MSRP! Any Build Feedback?

    Yes! I just picked up the same identical build this weekend! I love it already, even after coming from a 2020 Turbo. It is supposedly a bit slower 0-60, but really, unless you clock them side by side you wouldn't know the difference. Lucky you if you can get it at sticker - I paid $12k over, but...

    My Other Car’s an Etron!

    The availability of chargers is not the problem (though they really are too sparse). The E-tron came with 1250kWh of free charging after complaining (normally 250kWh). We wanted to use it, even though our home has a 20kW solar array that provides (after 12 years) basically free charging. My...

    My Other Car’s an Etron!

    I just picked up my second Taycan (GTS) and couldn't be happier. We recently had a '22 Audi etron Sportback in the family for a couple of weeks. Great looking (Navarra blue), and super comfortable. Unfortunately, the Audi app was never working. No way to pre-cool/heat (important in SoCal), but...

    BMW I4 M50 test drive

    That is a beautiful Gentian Blue! Very similar to the BMW Portimao imo, could it actually be the same color? I do like the BMW display, it does not seem too big to me, slightly curved and VERY easy to control.

    BMW i4 M50 v Porsche Taycan review - The world's best fast EV? [Autocar]

    Could not disagree more on instrumentation and overall feel. Even though I love my Taycan Turbo after almost two years of ownership, I can't help thinking maybe I should get a BMW M50 like my Husband just did! It drives beautifully, and looks awesome! Get's better "gas" mileage than my car so...

    BMW I4 M50 test drive

    To be honest, I can not claim to have done a fully scientific comparison, LOL. However both cars were in sport mode, so the Taycan was in low gear from takeoff and they both accelerated similarly from stand still. The Taycan started to get ahead of the M50 when reaching higher speed - probably...

    BMW I4 M50 test drive

    The i4 M50 definitely has the better controls, well above the Taycan and much more intuitive and responsive. It also has power comparable to my Turbo, but the suspension and leather appointments in the Taycan are a step up from the BMW (as it should at a $100k premium). After having the M50 for...
