Today I took delivery of my 2020 Porsche Taycan Turbo at the Porsche Experience Center in Los Angeles. If anyone has been reticent to do the PEC delivery because of COVID restrictions, I'd say don't worry. It was an awesome time, and they did a fantastic job of making it a very special occasion.

Lots of time behind the wheel of a Turbo S, including the handling course, acceleration runs, slalom, low-friction handling course with the kick plate, low-friction circle, ice hill...

Then on to the unveiling of my car, and the delivery and familiarization. Everything worked! My Porsche Connect account synced to the car, and I got an overview of all of the systems.

Finally, I enjoyed a wonderful lunch at 'Patio 917' (the outdoor incarnation of their restaurant), and then out to the parking lot where they had thoughtfully parked my Taycan back-to-back with a 919 for my final drive-off.

All in all, a really memorable and fun day!

For the USA it's a $500 add-on during configuration for a Porsche Experience Center delivery at either Los Angeles or Atlanta. Comes with the meal and the special delivery experience and 90 minutes of track time. I'm very much looking forward to it, scheduled for November 11th in LA as well.

Looks like a dream experience. I wish my dealer had told me about this option. We put our deposit down in early 2019. Finally got the car in May of this year. Picked it up at the dealership and missed all your memorable experiences. Our cars are very similar with the exception of the sport design package which I added for a touch of distinction. Good luck with your "Mission E". Again, I envy your delivery day.

Well @CJE I don't believe that PECLA was up and running in May for Taycan deliveries, which is probably why you're dealer did not mention it as a delivery option. It took them a little while to work out a procedure in these challenging times.

Beautiful car.
