Picked this beauty up this afternoon, after film and tint applied. Another Carrara White with red & black interior (which I love). Now if I can only figure out the multiple direction books given to installing the Porsche’s charging dock :(

Nice spec! I’m going for this exact look!
Have you tinted the driver and passengers windows here? If so, is it costly?

I paid $549 for the tinting—arranged through the dealer and applied before I took delivery. I think the dealer rep may have told me that the price had gone up to $650 since I signed my deal for the car in March of this year.

BTW, love the car—no real issues or problems, and have received a large amount of comments and drive by thumbs up. :)

I noticed on your previous post in this thread you got it shipped without any tinting. I’m due to test drive and spec mine on Wednesday and would like the same effect as yours with the driver windows tinted.
I guess I should have the same convo with him about tinting instead of applying the privacy glass window options on only the rear and back windows?

I don’t suppose you have any more pics of the car?
Yours is the closest I’ve seen to my exact spec!

Thought I would throw a pic up of my 4s. Haven’t seen many with the side skirt stripe on. I think it looks ok!? Next step is a possible distressed racing wrap and wheels?? Pics to follow if I have the balls to do it!

distressed wrap would be super cool. Do it!

I’m pondering the side skirts? Are they worth the extra £££?

So jealous you don't have to have an ugly front reg plate :CWL:

Well, I MIGHT legally be required to have front plate here in Minnesota, and I was going to have it put on, but dealer frowned and said I would be only Taycan he’s seen with a front plate. Soooo....

personally i think with the white flash on the side skirt - it kinda completes the car... so yeah, i would say so. good luck... which dealer are you using?

I really like the white on the trim parts - maybe better than my carbon fiber :clap: . It really gives character to the front.

Still can't wait to get my car - should be in next week and I'll pickup after wrap, ceramic, tint, radar/laser install. I'm doing a clear wrap with gloss black on the matte parts and the mirrors as well as some strips on the roof and lower doors - we'll see what it looks like.:fingerscrossed:

It’s a company car so not sure. As it’s a CC I have to be very careful about adding options as basically get nothing back and have to pay upfront for all options. Needing to be very stringent on the choices !

The Escort Max Ci 360. My installer is very familiar with the system and I actually returned my AL Priority system because it would have been a pain to install and nowhere near as clean. According to a couple folks who've had recent installs, they've driven through Atlanta and jammed the DragonEye systems very well, and the reviews indicate it's 90-95% as good a jammer as the ALP. That's good enough for me, and the installer is hopeful he can get the display in the rear view mirror, so very clean install.

Vim, please post pics of radar install with all components when you get car back. I'm still debating between ALP and the Escort. BTW, does the switch to Escort have anything to do with you being from Ohio, hmmmm?

I'll definitely post pics. Believe it or not, they don't have any kind of customer service in Cincinnati. I do know where they live though...:devil:
