You have enough snow in Vancouver to do donuts and drifting? Have had the pleasure of being in Vancouver many times through the seasons and wouldn't have guess that! Happy you enjoyed the experience!

Lamentably, correct. I've been on both sides of the coin. Previous Porsche was a CPO Panamera GTS. Benefitted from previous owner who took the depreciation. Ordered and bought a '23 Taycan 4S. Depreciation all on me. Figure on average I'm about right. Huge fan of both cars and will...

Happily drove a 2013 Panamera GTS (CPO) for 7 years. Absolutely loved it but approaching big repair bill territory and wanting to explore an EV took delivery of my 23 Taycan 4 S in December and thoroughly enjoy driving it. BUT, suffer from severe range anxiety. Only drive the vehicle 5-6...

It really doesn't look too bad. This happened to me multiple times on my previous Porsche, a '13 Panamera GTS. My experience was that it will happen again and perhaps, again. My advice is to live with it and only replace/repair when you get closer to trading the car for a newer model. My...

Completely agree with your comment. Having said that, we are all relatively early adopters and it is clear that as battery technology advances, our current leading edge Taycans will likely depreciate rapidly going forward. But, as you said, we do not buy these vehicles in 2023 as sound...

Many of us are Porsche fans, constantly demonstrating how the emotional appeal of a Porsche supersedes the financial appeal! Porsche floated their IPO (went public) on September 29 of 2022. We in the US can now buy essentially ADR shares under the symbol POAHY. As of close of US market Feb 27...

With only 530 miles and a late December '22 delivery I have a way to go, but curious about what service is done at the 2 years. I've no doubt it is crazy expensive as Porsche service normally is as Ive learned over the past 7 years.

Would you trade a B17 bomber for the need to not speak German? Pretty certain that's why you're posting in English.

Its classic Porsche "scam" I owned a Panamera GTS for 7 years. (LOVED the car) Can't tell you how many times I refused service recommendations. For example, I did spark plug change at 20,000 miles (Way to soon) and at 30,000 mi they wanted me to do it again. I put 5,000 miles on each of my 4...

Always a good thing!:)

Well, that is interesting. "It does alert you. In fact, to apply the update it will want you to get out of the car, lock it and walk away for 10 minutes "Walk away before the car explodes in a fiery burst of death? :) Sorry, weird sense of humor.

in week three of my '23 4S ownership. While driving a couple of days ago, just saw a message on the center screen that stated something like "Navigation update completed". Had me wondering about how many OTA updates does Porsche push through in a 3-6 month period of time. Maybe far fewer now...

Good to hear you're a responsible bumper owner and got yours "spayed", no more unwanted bumper pregnancies! On a serious note, my vehicle prior to my '23 Taycan 4S was a 2013 Panamera and I, and my no longer good friend State Farm, spent a total of $5,000+ to replace much of the bumper front...

Thanks, always good info from you. How concerned are you about charging to 100%? My Tycan will live in STL for about 5 months/year. Likely not adding 5,000 miles/year. Think I could charge to 100% without significant degradation? Thanks.

You don't speak to how you intend to use the car, but a few clues. You've opted for the LA Experience delivery center which suggests you might be interested in tracking your car. If that is correct, I think your choice of adaptable air suspension is good and you def should do the RWS option...

You have the dates correct. However, my CPA tells me (and emailed me volumes of supporting IRS rules) that IF you have a signed contract before August 16, '22 as you mentioned, a buyer still take delivery after 12/31/22 and qualify for the $7500 tax credit. There is no Jan 1 cutoff as you...

Worked like a charm, thanks for the quick and accurate response! Can't believe I couldn't work it out myself.

Am driving my recently delivered '23 4S on day 5, today. Quick question. Understand how to fold exterior mirrors by using the drivers side door controls. Wondering if its possible to program them to retract/fold in when locking the car with the remote. Struggling to find that option if...

Received my '23 4S last week and am absolutely delighted. I wanted to thank all of you who offered advice on the rear wheel steering option. If I hadn't chosen it, I'd never had known what a fantastic option it is. Whomever said that on the highway it makes a shortwheel base car seem like a...

Where do you have your charge limit set? 85% or something else?
