CARMINE RED Taycan Club

Looks great - May I ask why carbon blades / PSCBs on RWD?

Because all the other wheels looked a bit crap. I needed to pimp it up since it is a RWD. I think the wheels really make the car. Don't see them on the other Taycans round here. The PSCBs were mandatory with the wheels selection. Didn't have a choice. Not that I am complaining.

Ah interesting I didn’t know aero blades were forcing PSCBs on sedan, as they don’t on CT!
They look awesome, but from a distance maybe similar to the ones painted in black and a grand cheaper
Didn’t you like mission Es as potential alternative?

Nah, Mission Es not my cup of tea. Don't like the white rims and Satan would not approve either. The aero blades were £1600 a wheel but I know they are carbon. Seen the cheaper painted ones. Not sold either. You can see the difference. TBH Once I equipped the aero blades in the Porsche builder that was it. I am definitely looks over performance

Not Carmine red but similar on this Ferrari Roma. These guys who done full PPF on the Mrs Macan are currently in the process of applying the Roma in stealth. Only the bonnet in stealth here so you can compare whether it’s for you.

Coincidentally it was this exact Insta story that had already caught my attention and had me wondering about the Taycan

Waiting for the 12V battery from Porsche, but at least it's now closer than ever. ST + CR work great.

According to the configurator PSCB are not mandatory when selecting the "carbon blades" rims. The rims are £1,684 more than the normal Taycan Exclusive rims after you have selected the gloss-black finish.

I personally wouldn't get the carbon rims for the same reason as you, in that you can only tell the difference close up.

As requested by a forum member asking about Red on Red because considering a GTS upgrade from frozen blue. Another excuse to post Satan's Chariot of Death. Easy choice.

You are the best. Thank you so much. Really looks nice in real life.

Damn i was starting to think i was the only one with those carbon wheels.

PSCB isn't mandatory either on sedan (at least on 4s as i still have my red calipers)

Just back from the detailers wheels ceramic coated and paint refreshed

didnt get the wheels done when I got the car as it came with the wrong locking wheel nut but I do love these wheels and who doesn’t like Carmine red in the sunshine

Finally got my GTS almost year after I placed the order

it arrived just before Christmas but then went for paint correction, ppf and ceramic coating of everything.

It looks absolutely amazing (well I think it does and that's all that matters lol). I don't have any interior pictures without my 5 yo and 3yo in so will try and post those up later so if people want to see GTS carmine red racetex option and carbon option internally. It is our second Taycan and both are different in their own way...again I will post some thoughts after some more experience.

Id like to thank you all for helping me choose my options and for posting your own images to help me clarify what I wanted

Some post transporter delivery pictures

Post detailer dropoff

Handover pictures

Oh man I have weak knees @darth_maul_80

 

[Codeias]

Looking good @darth_maul_80 we have similar spec’s from the looks of it… or at least exterior anyway… besides the ST body that is!
