  1. 265/40/20 front and 305/35/20 rear Michelin PS 4S tires for stock 20” wheels?

    Has anyone mounted these on stock factory 20” wheels and experienced any issues? It’s basically the same width tires as mounted on the 21” wheel options but instead mounted on 20” wheels with the narrower rim width and slightly different offset. I’m considering ordering these tires on factory...
  2. Is the heater supposed to run on its own when parked in a cold place?

    It’s very cold here in Chicago. Below zero and wind chill is negative double digits for the last few days now. It’s so cold that even inside our garage it’s below freezing. I noticed on myPorshce app that the heater occasionally goes on in my Taycan even though I have not set it to pre-heat...
  3. Stripped one of my rear license plate screw holes, any ideas to fix?

    Received my plates today and went to swap out the temporary tag and I guess I was a bit overzealous tightening one of them, and now it is stripped. Any ideas for a quick fix short of ordering a new $60 rear bracket from suncoast? google search suggests using epoxy to fill in the hole, let...
  4. Stealth Neptune GTS ST and Chalk GTS Club

    Met up with another forum member KoSoVaR today and took some beauty shots of our new Taycans with the Chicago skyline as a backdrop. He just had a full stealth wrap over his beautiful Neptune Blue GTS ST and I just had a front clear PPF on my Chalk GTS sedan done as well. Both cars are kinda...
  5. Question about the Charging timer...

    when setting the charging timer on the PCM or myPorsche app, does the Taycan initiate charging to reach desired percentage based on a certain fixed AC charging rate? I'm guessing it's not a "smart" system that senses how fast the charging rate was historically or recently based on the location...
  6. Tuxmat trunk / frunk 3-piece set -- first look pics

    For those curious about how these look in a Taycan and what the 3-piece set includes, a rep from tuxmat emailed me these pics showing all three pieces of their tuxmat 3-piece trunk set. I was going to get Weathertech like I've always done for past cars but I saw a thread here earlier about...
  7. Rev-match downshift sound

    Noticed this on my GTS with drive mode set to sport plus. Slowing down for a corner, the sport sound makes what sounds like a blip rev-match when downshifting. Does this actually indicate a downshift or is that just simulated “for effect” for a bit of fun? Also, I never noticed this...
  8. Took some better pics of my new GTS

    It's dirty. I have yet to wash it since taking delivery 4 days ago and have been driving it everywhere doing made-up errands for no good reason other than to drive the new car. But the nice thing about Chalk is that it seems to hide dirty well, even with a better camera that's not an iPhone :)...
  9. Of all my GTS' options selected, I have an unexpected favorite. What's yours?

    Three days of ownership now. Absolutely ecstatic. Wife is starting to look at me funny now because I don't think I've been able to wipe the smile off my face since taking delivery. I'm probably still smiling when I'm sleeping. The thing about the GTS is that it comes with Sport Chrono as...
  10. So apparently, always charging to 100% is OK (?)

    I was chatting with my SA today, finalizing plans for the delivery of my new GTS tomorrow, and he mentioned something I found very interesting yet remain slightly skeptical about. I was asking about recommended charging practices and even referenced a thread on these forums, specifically...
  11. noob Taycan EVSE question

    I don’t have my Taycan yet but I did go ahead and have an EVSE installed in my garage. It’s an Autel Maxicharger (hardwired version) and I had my electrician hook it up to a 70A breaker in order to get the maximum 50A charge rate the Autel unit is capable of. But I just realized the Taycan...
  12. Anyone with the Autel Maxicharger EVSE?

    Relatively new entry, at least in the US. Does anyone have any experience with this thing or have one? Seems well-built, and I like the esthetic. Very comparable to the popular Chargepoint EVSEs in that it has smart functionality with wifi connectivity and can be hardwired for 50A or...
  13. Passenger Display functionality with ANA6 PCM update

    Has the passenger display benefited from additional functionality with the ANA6 update? Particularly, any chance ANA6 now enables the Passenger display to display Apple CarPlay/Android Auto independent of the other main display?
  14. OMG I finally got an allocation!

    According to my SA, it's the last Taycan to be built for their dealership this year. Ordered in March and was told "September". Then in June I was told about production delays pushing my build into "Early 2023". So getting this news today was certainly shocking but welcome. The one...
  15. Anybody else bothered by how the VLC roof looks on the outside vs regular pano?

    around 11:15 on RBR's new GTS ST video... I posted about this same concern on a different thread but dismissed it based on CarWow's video suggesting it looks the same. But RBR's video shows it is clearly not the same. The VLC roof shows the cutout whereas the regular pano roof hides the...
  16. GTS price increase for MY 2023

    Just noticed that the configurator on Porsche's USA site already reflects new pricing for 2023 models. I now get a prompt when loading previously saved configs to the new model year 2023 pricing. This price hike is not as bad as I expected considering the global shortages and higher cost of...
  17. Anybody else spec 14-way massage and ventilated seats for their GTS?

    I had been reluctant to do so, but I just asked my SA to go ahead and make this change on my GTS order, and it's now done. It feels so wrong though. What have I done!?! I feel like I just murdered some endangered species of baby animals. I do like and use the massage function in our Audis...
  18. Slate grey full leather - will race-tex also come in slate grey?

    Anyone have Slate grey full leather interior with race-tex roof lining and pillars? With the selection of slate grey leather, does the race-tex fabric on the roof and pillars become slate-grey in color as well? Still undecided on what interior to get with FBM exterior. Currently have...
  19. Perforated leather on 18-way sport seats without ventilation

    I've seen cars with the ventilation option, and of course they're perforated. But what about cars with 18-way sport seats WITHOUT ventilation, will the seats come non-perforated? Anyone have this care to chime in? If removing the ventilation option also removes seat leather perforations, I...
  20. 21" wheels and living in a big city with bad roads

    It's a given that 21" wheels are lovely and really makes the car, whether Mission E, RS Spyders, or blades. For this reason alone, I know many of you have thrown caution to wind and went with 21" wheels despite living and driving daily in an urban setting with very bad roads, lots of potholes...
