On Porsche Car Finder, the 2020 Turbos and Turbo S are the most discounted from the MSRP compared to other trims. For example this Turbo is listed at $144,991 with a window of $170,70 with 4,810 miles, while this 4S at the same dealer is listed at $127,498 with a window of $134,830 with 5,683 miles. Which one should I get and are there any issues that I should know about on the 2020 models like slow PCM, alarm issue, or unability to plug and charge at Electrify America? Thanks!

The 2020 models don't support plug and charge. Also, it's a minor note, but the PSCB brakes that the Turbo has were bespoke for the 2020 model year. In 2021 they changed them to a smaller caliper with 6 pistons instead of the 10 piston in the 2020. (noted because the turbo you linked has them) Just mentioned it for future brake service availability/costs, although with how little the brakes are use in a Taycan, it shouldn't really factor in.

We bought a used 2020 4s, and the PCM update applied by the dealer has resulted in no complaints about slowness, errors, etc. It's been fine.
