    Porsche says “significant price increases” coming middle of this year

    Here’s a nice opinion piece. They can get margins higher by selling on the high end, and making more variants. Then you add the options…. Still the prices will be going up. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2023-03-14/your-next-porsche-will-be-really-expensive?leadSource=uverify%20wall

    So the Taycan isn't a sports car? 😬

    4 doors equals no sports car. Just drives better than 95 percent of them.

    How did your friends react to the car ... ?

    90 percent are happy for me. It’s an excuse to go out on weekend mornings and have a spirited drive. The other ten have larger families. I said you decided to have 3 kids and i had one. Over time I’ll save money! The dads usually nod silently at me. in all seriousness, this was a bucket...

    From 911 to T4S Plus

    i have a 4s with battery plus. In Chicagoland, haven’t done a winter yet, and summer was relatively mild. Did 5 250 plus mile days and and didn’t sweat it. Around 35-40+ miles left when I got home, charged it and was good to go.

    Homelink issue?

    Hold it down and the icon to the right of home on the pop up will look like it’s sending a signal, then the garage door will pen or close

    Trade-in values?

    Just picked up my car from the software update. Talked to the Dealership manager, while waiting. Said on his Zoom call on Friday, New 4S in Cali are going for 30-40K over. Told him if he can find a buyer that will pay that premium for a gently used one from Indiana, I'd happily go on the...

    Gentian Blue Metallic - Will it Look Purplish?

    May come close, but it’s blue every time I open the door into the garage……and mine looks the most purple of all the pics posted on this thread. Tell your wife its the color of royalty and call her queen for a few days. Good luck, but my wife and I highly recommend the color.

    PPF or Ceramic coating?

    Just was going through posts about PPF. Saw yours. Im in Northwest IND and got my Taycan from Orland Park 3 weeks ago. Did you like your installer? IF you don't mind, what was the cost just for the PPF and who did your install? Obviously pricing out and wanted to see if you would refer your...

    271 miles! 100% charged. What’s your range shown?

    Spirited driving in SW Michigan yesterday in beautiful 80 degree weather. Took the car from 300 total miles to 500+. Great day. Charged overnight. Extremely happy with driving in optimal conditions and mileage estimates from it. Wife unplugged the car before 100%. Second time charging...

    Day Trips

    That sounds like its right up my alley! Thanks. Indiana is exactly as you describe. What stinks is Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio are so close, but way more diverse in terrain. I was looking for some other Taycan owners that can give me the 411 on what routes excite them. Even Southern...
