Do you remember the first time you felt a great pair of boobs...? That was the feeling when I drove my 2017 Panamera Turbo for the fist time. Couldn't believe something so amazing existed and I just wanted more. Parting with her was painful but necessary for the greater good. So in January I placed my deposit on the CT 4S and began the long, long wait for delivery on Dec 9th. Once I got word the taycan had been delivered I scheduled pickup 1 week later from the Colo Springs dealership about 120 miles away. On my way there I decided to take a lil (600mile) detour to Aspen, CO, one last dance with Mary Jane.

I'm going to miss her. We had some good times together.

Driving home after picking up the Taycan I thought to myself "you just dumped Jenna Jamison for Kelly LeBrock" (from Weird Science). The Panamera was big, bold, beautiful, noisy and kinda dirty. The Taycan was perfect in every way, partly because I helped design/create her but since she is so peculiar it may take some time to develop that bond. So far, I am very impressed and am looking forward to the 'feeling out' process.😉

On a side note:

I loathe all things social media. So I lurked on this forum for months before joining the conversation. You all have been so helpful, considerate, kind and funny. So, I just wanted to thank you all for making this good place to converse about what can be a big life decision or just filling an 8 car garage.

I wish you all health and happiness through the holidays!
Looks great!! Is your car on the lowest setting? How dark are the tints on the car?

I believe it is on the lowest setting. That is where I normally keep it. Don't have details on the tint. The dealer handled that 3rd party before I picked it up.

So glad I got this color. Kind of OCD about cars, and with the GTS, I'm even more OCD! Put PPF on the front and skirt, and Modesta coating. Absolutely stunning.

this is amazing - is the "GTS" on that side rail standard? I can't find it in the configurator.

And putting PPF on the side skirt really makes it stand out.
LeftCoast--Your side skirts are interesting in that they have the outline of the GTS. All the GTS images I've seen and what I'm expecting on my car have them as solid lettering---which I personally don't like as much.

It's the PPF that makes it look that way. I really do like it.

Presumably the GTS-specific RS Spyder wheels?

I thought maybe I'd made a bad call with Dolomite because of the blue undertones. Now that I have the car, though, I realize those worries were overblown.

@NFBJRD thanks very much for the photos. They are excellent. My GTS is just days away from reaching Australian landfall. I really did struggle with the Taycan colours beyond black and white and your post read my mind, as there has been quite a bit Dolomite Silver anxiety going on these past few weeks. I can see the blueness in these photos and really like that. So hard ordering from a small sample in the dealership.
