    ?'s from a Tesla model 3 owner

    Based on the questions you are asking, I would recommend you stick with Tesla. My wife drives a model 3 and would have the same concerns. Tesla has the "EV" part of the equation nailed but doesn't build a driver car. Rather than an EV, I wanted a sports car that happened to be electric. I wanted...

    I have a friend who specializes in taking shots of cars. I challenged him to capture the true essence of the pearl. I'll send them out after i get them back.

    Taycan 4S transformed with full stealth wrap makeover

    I did not lower it. That is a the factory "low" height.

    Taycan 4S transformed with full stealth wrap makeover

    The camera definitely doesn't do the "satin" justice. It really defines every line on the car. Wrapjax in Woodinville did the work.

    Taycan 4S transformed with full stealth wrap makeover

    The wrap was $8000. I had other quotes up to ~ $11,000. The stealth PPF is really difficult because it is much thicker than standard vinyl wrap. Ensure the wrapper is going to "bulk" it rather than using the standard cuts they use for gloss PPF. Otherwise, you will see some gloss coming through...

    Taycan plastic parts - modification ideas?

    Looks great. Reputable paint shops where I live want about $5k US to remove the pieces, prep, paint and reinstall. I guess the entire bumper needs to come off. Afterwards, sensors need to be recalibrated at the PD which I am sure isn't "free".

    Taycan plastic parts - modification ideas?

    I considered that but the company who installed the PPF said that wrap would not stick to the rough plastic. I read similar input online.

    Taycan 4S PBP: Speed vs. Range

    If I can make it 136 miles going 100 MPH without getting pulled over, I'm good. I'll push it home and be happier than driving my wife's model 3 a million miles.

    Taycan plastic parts - modification ideas?

    I'm not a huge fan of the black plastic skirts and spoilers but I get it. It is a wear surface. I am resisting the urge to spend $4k to have them taken off, sanded, and painted gloss black. I figure they will just get chipped in the end and I'm would to spend a bunch at the Porsche dealer...

    Taycan 4S transformed with full stealth wrap makeover

    I started with a white 4S I had the following done: - Full stealth PPF wrap (the deep satin pearl effect is really cool but I will tell you that this was a very difficult wrap to apply. It's really thick and hard to work with. They had to do the front bumper 3X before it was perfect.) - Wrap...

    My Porsche Taycan 4S Makeover w/ Wrap, Wheels, Painted Brakes

    On the side markers, just have the guys who wrapped the car put a smoke wrap on them. IMO, they will look better than clear and way better than amber.

    How do 22” wheels feel??

    I'm running 22" Vossen wheels as well with Michelin 4s tires. What tire pressures are you running?

    Tire Pressures with 22" Wheels

    I recently moved to 22" Vossen HF-5 wheels with Michelin 4S tires. What pressures are people running these at? BTW, loving the set-up. Clear satin stealth wrap. Crappy pictures, I know. I'll post more when we get a nice day up here in Seattle.
