I am genuinely shocked by how much attention this car attracts on a daily basis.

My wife noticd a teenager taking a picture of our car while on the road. Have had nice comments when charging. But the annoying side is the childish antics by the Mustang, Camaro, and Hemi crowd. passing by and rapping their loud exhaust! Guess they don't realize they will be driving electric sooner than they think.

Next time ask them - didn’t their parents teach them that it’s not polite to fart and belch in public? :p

Whilst you blast past them having spent a fraction of the $ on getting from A to B.

I get this too. Never had so many positive comments and always the first question is; what range can I get?

Had a neighbor come up to me and compliment it, then when I told him it was electric, he was surprised lol…..then he was like “those have ‘get away from the cops’ speed” (which is funny because he’s a cop LOL)


Here’s my car:

HA! I recognize that under-construction Porsche dealer. I picked my Neptune Blue Taycan there at the end of April, beginning of May.

Your experience is similar to mine. I've had folks ask me about the car and they've all expressed surprised when I tell them it's electric.

Same. I just say 800 miles 🤣
Just say you've never really noticed - as the electricity always runs out slower than your bladder fills up.

Then tut and shake your head and say.... "and with rising electricity prices it now costs me up to £4.50 to fill her up to the brim at home" 🤣🤣

My Neptune Blue GTS garners a lot of attention. I've tinted the windows as dark as possible for some anonymity.
I blacked it out and plan to tint the windows.

I'd love to some some photos! What color interior did you get?

I have replaced all windows with solid metal sheets. Wife now drives peeping thru a periscope. Even cops are deathly afraid of her now.
