    Sold: Porsche Wall Charger Connect (unopened, new in box)

    Well, all three of the people I sold it too seem pretty happy with the box! (Just kidding.)

    Sold: Porsche Wall Charger Connect (unopened, new in box)

    So despite hundreds of people beating down my door for this thing, it still hasn't sold. If you're in Houston, you can have it for $600 cash. If you want it shipped, I can do it for $700 + shipping.

    Sold: Porsche Wall Charger Connect (unopened, new in box)

    Porsche sent me one of these, but I had already installed an alternative. Retails for USD$1670 + tax. Willing to sell for $1100 + shipping. Or, if you are in Houston and can pick up in person, $1000 cash. Showing original packaging, which I will use for shipping out, which is undamaged...

    Unexpectedly received Porsche Wall Charger Connect

    Well, let me kick this off: would anybody like to buy a new-in-box-unopened Porsche Wall Charger Connect? I am willing to offer a good price :). Located in Houston and prefer to sell in-person, but would contemplate shipping for forum members with good history on the forum. (Couldn’t find a...

    Unexpectedly received Porsche Wall Charger Connect

    Interesting theory; I opened the PMCC once, tried it once, then put it back in its bag and left it in a corner. I have a different EVSE that I use instead. So unless they are trigger happy on this one, possibly not this!

    Unexpectedly received Porsche Wall Charger Connect

    Yes, but almost no info on it. I guess, perhaps interestingly, there is no price. SA doesn’t know anything about it.

    Unexpectedly received Porsche Wall Charger Connect

    I took delivery about 3 or 4 months ago of my Taycan. I did not purchase any of the extra chargers. Today out of nowhere I received a huge box, containing a Porsche Wall Charger Connect. No idea why. Has anyone else received one for no particular reason? Any recalls or anything that might...

    Collision avoidance system engages for no reason

    I had something like this happen when backing out of my fairly benign driveway today. It’s day 2 with the car. but it is shockingly strong! can this be disabled? I feel like others have described it as part of maneuvering assist.

    Well, my car arrived! Pretty smooth in the end. Will probably write up some more thoughts at some point—have really appreciated others doing so.

    August 2023 Deliveries

    Well, later today is delivery day for me, and I feel nervous* and excited—perhaps like my kids do on Christmas Eve—taking this a bit too seriously probably! I put a deposit down as soon as deposits were allowed in the US, then got a refund when I saw the pricing of the Turbo, then aged a few...

    Price reduction in P4R (remote parkassist)

    Amazingly, they gave me the price reduction! Porsche charges the dealer when it is delivered to the dealer, and that’s when the price was set. Still unclear why the price dropped. I also noticed the tech package dropped even more.

    2023 Taycan $7500 Tax Credit with Lease vs No tax Credit purchase.

    I decided I will probably not to do the lease, after all—in Texas you have to pay the full sales tax on lease begin, and then again if you do a buyout. If I buy it out quickly, the taxable value will be nearly the full amount, a second time. PFS offers tax credits, but they weren’t total, and...

    2023 Taycan $7500 Tax Credit with Lease vs No tax Credit purchase.

    Did you end up doing this, @Wonky Donkey (hee haw)? If so, how did it go?

    2023 Taycan $7500 Tax Credit with Lease vs No tax Credit purchase.

    I’m thinking of doing the same when I pick up my car, looking like next week (lease and then pay off after one payment). I assume Porsche is still passing on the 7500 saving? @Payton48 how much of a pain was it? Any tricky parts besides what you mentioned? Did the dealer care? I am also...

    great photos, looks awesome! The black handles on this color look particularly good, where they are less convincing on other colors.

    Electric Vehicles Are Way, Way More Energy-Efficient Than Internal Combustion Vehicles - MotorTrend Article

    Not arguing with the overall conclusion, just the way the numbers are presented is inconsistent. Percentages of percentages often get complicated. Could be that that is the losses of the stuff that isn’t recuperated, but the way it is presented doesn’t add up (literally).
