    Hit a brick in the road today

    Good to hear. Did you also buy a set of the jack pucks? Are they required to use a flood jack?

    Thanks! Good to know! I'll take a look and see if I want to tackle it.

    Anyone have a Vantrue N4 Pro Dashcam hardwired to their Taycan?

    I installed a FitCamX myself and then paid Best Buy $80 to run the rear cam wire. They did a great job.

    Hit a brick in the road today

    Driving through the neighborhood today and hit a brick in the middle of the road. Saw it too late to avoid it. It sounded horrible but no visible damage to any important parts - i.e. the battery plate underneath. However, there is a hole in the softer, cardboard/felt area behind the front...

    When do you plug your Charger in?

    If I'm understanding your correctly, you want to see the KW usage put out by the charger. If so, the Emporia app will show you that info regardless of whether you schedule charging through the app. We have 2 Emporias and have never scheduled anything through the app - just the PCM/Porsche app -...

    What Home Power Washer Do You Use?

    I don't have one yet but will be picking up a Giraffe electric one with a hose reel. I'll mount just inside the garage and then run the supply hose to the outdoor spigot 3 feet around the corner. It seems like decent option.

    FitcamX - stuck trying to put it back together.

    I routed the rear wire out the top and towards the passenger side under the roof liner.

    Dash cam suggestions (UK)

    +1 for FitCamX. Tricky but very doable self install on the front. I paid a big box store auto department to run the rear cam wire to the back.

    Does air suspension sit lower than standard suspension?

    https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PRMW8U21 The price has gone up since I ordered mine. I got on my dealer's list last August, locked in December, built in Jan/Feb, and delivered in April. Paid MSRP even when others were getting an ADM. Porsche of Melbourne is a great dealership if...

    Does air suspension sit lower than standard suspension?

    Love it! I can't compare the AS to springs because I didn't test drive one but it's an amazing ride. We've got some railroad tracks near us and it glides over them like nothing. I also like the look of it lowered all the way down, which can't be done with the springs, so it gives it a subtle but...

    Does air suspension sit lower than standard suspension?

    No. Probably just a reflection.

    Does air suspension sit lower than standard suspension?

    Yes. It's fully adjustable. Mine (in profile pic) is RWD with AS and is set to the lowest setting.

    Dashcam, prewiring, and custom work

    The guys at Best Buy actually run it from back to front because the extra cord can be hidden better at the front instead of getting all the way to back with a coil of extra cord to hide. But to answer the question, I'm not completely sure where they ran it. I know they ran it from the center...

    Installation cost for Porsche Dash-cam (pre-wired)?

    IMO, the $130 prewiring is a waste of money, as little as it is. I installed the FitCamX myself and then paid Best Buy $80 to run the rear camera. The front cam is as concealed as any camera could be and $80 to Best Buy was money well spent.

    Color of car in surround view

    I AM thrilled with the car. I don’t even really care that the image shows a white car but I was wondering if it’s normal because others cars we’ve had with showed a similar color car to the actual color.

    Color of car in surround view

    Thoughts... When I put the the car in Reverse and the overhead view pops up, it shows the car as a white car even though my car is Gentian Blue. I realize the car on the screen is CGI but I would have thought it would match the actual car like we've had with other car brands. Does everyone...

    Do you lose battery % overnight?

    I've left my car at the airport for 3-4 days at a time several times and haven't lost anything over those 3-4 days. I'm in FL, though, so if temps have something to do with it, it won't be a factor here.

    April 2023 Deliveries

    Thanks. I did PPF on the entire front up to the A pillar. The installer also did the "shark fin" in front of the rear wheels, the door sills, and something on the trunk to it wouldn't get scuffed loading stuff. Ceramic on all of it.

    Done! Put a 10% deposit on my 2024 Taycan allocation.

    MY SA was pushing the lease option very hard... Kept saying we never know where the technology is going to be in 3 years. From reading the forums and people more knowledgeable than me, the technology won't be changing so quickly that new cars today will be drastically obsolete in the next 3...
