My father has a 1933 Chevrolet Coupe. Only 10,000 of them were made. He also has some impressive 1972 El Camino that was just completely restored. Classic cars, the both of them. Neither one needs to be replaced by a more recent model. I love my 2020 Taycan. Was somewhere around the number 25th...

I have a 2020 Taycan, but this is the EV car I've always wanted. Either this or a 911 EV convertible. I can't wait. My local dealer is taking deposits. Will get mine in tomorrow.

Nope. I have asked, 3x.

I nearly always turn it on in parking lots or on streets with many pedestrians.

Doesn't seem like unreasonable requests.

My son insisted my new car had to be electric. So I bought a Taycan (MY'20) when it came out. He was so embarrassed by it. "It's a rich person's car, Dad. It's too flashy. People will think you're a jerk." and so on. And then I let him drive it and he changed his tune. :CWL:

Another issue I've run across are cars parked in the charging stalls, but not charging at all. Worse, when it's an ICE car. This happens frequently at my local EA station in a Wal-Mart parking lot in Mountain View, CA. There are 6 stalls, 5 of them fairly close to the front entrance of the...

He's not annoying me. I took ownership of my MY'20 nearly 2 years ago today. I have had many of the issues on that list. My car stalled out in the middle of an intersection (that was scary as fuck) and limped to the the other side of the street. I had the software update recently. It took an...

My MY'20 was turned into the shop on Monday. I should get it back today. I am having the software update, any outstanding recall, a light fixed on the passenger door, a 2 year bumper to bumper inspection, fluids (water?....what else?), etc. After reading this thread, it will be amazing if it...

We did not have to charge.

They would still give the "fix it ticket"

Sometimes law enforcement makes you put it there! But yeah, this car looks better without it!

Do we need to do anything to effectuate the update? Or does it do it by itself? In other words, is there an action item here?

Question regarding SiriusXM (of which, I have had many issues since getting my car in Sept 2020): When car was first purchased, scrolling through the SXM channels, you could see what song/artist was playing at that moment. That functionality went away with the one and only major software update...

My dealer is also Porsche Stevens Creek. My advisor there (Ron) is telling me that he is unaware of any new software update for the Taycan (note: I have a MY20, so it may only be about that year). As an aside, he also tells me that for the recall of the seat wiring, there "are no instructions"...

I just made an appointment for my Taycan to get the update at my local service center and they tell me that there is no software update. I'm officially confused as to what is really happening with this update (if there is an update, or not).

I remember a few years back, on Halloween night, I was driving on a very dark (no streetlights) neighborhood street with my nightvision on display. There were many kids walking around with their candy-bags. One father stopped me on the road and told me I was driving dangerously b/c the kids were...

I bought my 2020 Taycan (was on the waitlist) at Stevens Creek Porsche for MSRP, as did everyone I know who bought from them. Demand is and was extremely high.

Porsche is one of the most profitable car companies on the planet. MSRP of the Taycan will fetch at least a 15% profit for the company and the dealer likely has a higher markup. Do not pay more than MSRP...

I've never understood how to properly set ABRP, so my estimates are always off. But it does a good job in telling you where the chargers are, so that's helpful. My last "long trip" I relied 100% on the NAV system to map it all out. It was ok, but along hwy 5, a Bakersfield charging spot (I...
