  1. buying used Taycan

    Hi! I'm in the market for a used Taycan 4s. 2021, 22, or maybe a 23. Any recommendations on which year will be most reliable and have the latest updates? I think its a '22, but I'm not 100% sure. Thanks!
  2. CT4 in place of my GTS

    Hi all: I talked to my rep at Porsche today. I let her know I could not take delivery of my GTS. She said I was her second just today. We talked about me switching to a CT4, which both my wife and I like. I'm just a little worried about the acceleration of the CT4. For those with RWD Taycans...
  3. Giving up my GTS order arriving next month

    Hi All, Sadly, I am giving up my Taycan GTS due to arrive next month. It was a stretch for me in December 2021. However, given the current financial conditions, I can't muster the funds for a $179k (inc tax in California) purchase. I will beg and plead with my dealer to get my $5k deposit...
  4. GTS on the boat!

    Today TMD updated, showing my car on the boat early and is to be delivered to me on December 16th! It's decision time -- tricky with my financial picture suffering the same problems as most of us my wife is looking to me to defend the purchase by showing her my cost per year is not too much...
  5. leasing numbers

    Has anyone recently leased a 4s or GTS in the US? and if so, can you report on the residual value (at the end of 3 years or if a different timeline, please indicate it)? Thanks,
  6. Actual ownership cost to own a Taycan

    Hi: I have a GTS on order -- I should see it in late December or early January. My wife, the CFO of the family, wants me to run some numbers on the cost of ownership. Right now, I drive a 2015 BMW M4 convertible -- I bought it used in early 2018 for $54k, and it's worth ~$32k as a trade-in...

  9. Back seat sizing

    Hi All: I have a GTS on order, and delivery is expected by late December (ordered Dec, '21). My family is me, my wife, who is 5'8" and my 15 year old son. When I ordered the car, my son was pretty small. He was 5'3", 100 lbs. Fast forward one year later, and he is 5'9.5", 150, and starting for...
  10. Got No Satisfaction!

    Ordered GTS on 12/09/2021. Expected delivery, 12/09/2022. I keep coming to the forum to get my fix of Taycan info and Porsche energy. Unfortunately, I end up leaving frustrated and bumped! I need my car!!! Thank everyone, despite the frustration, it's a pleasure absorbing the positive energy!
  11. New software, increased range

    I'm seeing various reports on the range with the new software upgrade. I say one that said the GTS 2023 was up around 323. I'm waiting on a GTS 2022 (how are there 2023 when 2022s are still stuck at port???). Will I get that new software and the increased range? Feel free to point me to an...
  12. BMW M4 convertible (2015) --> Taycan GTS

    Hi: I'm moving from a BMW M4 convertible (2015) --> Taycan GTS. But I live in San Francisco -- tight driving, bad roads. I drive a lot out of the city, so just wondering about the Taycan driving experience in a big city -- especially from anyone who was originally in a smaller sports car.
  13. Massive new delay

    Hi, i just learned (from TYD) that my GTS is delayed from September to late December. I'm not happy about getting a 2022 model year at the end of 2022 or maybe 2023. Is anyone else having this problem? I'm seriously thinking about canceling and buying a used 4s.
  14. Front/Rear/Surround Camera, proximity sensors/beepers

    Hi: I'm a little alarmed to hear the complaints about the poor camera on the Taycans. I currently drive a BMW M4. I also live in San Francisco. It's very tight driving in the city. I leverage the rear camera a lot, surround sometimes, and the proximity beeper ALL the time. Even in my home...
  15. Used 4s instead of New GTS

    Hi: I have a GTS on order, delivery set for September. My ideal car. However, in the current climate, I'm struggling to rationalize the price. Plus, suddenly there are a bunch of 4s used, at not totally unreasonable prices (~$125k-$135k). If I were to go with the 4S used, NOT including the...
  16. GTS (not ST) in the snow?

    I have a GTS on order for late summer or fall delivery. My wife has an SUV (BMW X3) and I currently drive a BMW M4 convertible. We drive to Taheo for skiing 5-10 times a year. The weather can be anything from clear, cole and dry to full-on massive show storm. My wife just asked if we could 1)...
  17. Track your dream

    Hi All: I send Porsche to support a note and they got my TRack your Dream set up. The build is perfect. The lock is on March 24th. But I have the dreaded TBD for delivery. I also got a note asking for patience due to the Ukraine conflict. Overall, it's very cool! I probably won't make any...
  18. Need input on GTS Race Tex

    Hi All: I'm slated for delivery of my GTS in July. I really like the upgraded leather, which I've included in my order. I am sensitive to some synthetic materials and was trying to avoid Race Tex, which I like, but has a pretty strong smell when new. I now realize that there is a bunch of...
  19. Lease info

    Hi: I understand there are benefits to leasing EVs as you get the federal rebate upfront. I'm not decided if I'm going to take out a loan or lease it, but I want to be prepared and I've never leased before. I do plan on selling my M4 convertable -- If I lease, does it make sense to put that...
  20. Need input on my order process, GTS

    Hi: I need some input from the group on my order process. In January, I put a deposit ($5k). I got a verbal that I had an allocation for March, delivery in June. After lots of iffy conversations, I was told I would lock on March 23rd. In a way too rushed conversation, I sent my rep the build...
