Hi, Benjamin here, from Stuttgart, Germany.
I am a "daily driver"; pre-ordered my Taycan feels like two years ago. This is my fourths Porsche; delivery was postponed four times (once because of Corona) ... but next week I will hopefully get it. This beauty here: PLP3SDT6

Also no sports package with the dash board clock?

Yeah, no, I made a conscious decision not to. I had it in my 911. But the lighted watch is reflected in the windshield at night... and once you see that, you always see it.

And you can also (as far as I've seen) select the suspension settings manually. That's all I need.

Hello everyone,
my name is Christian, I live in Porsche-land. :D
Actually, pre-Corona I would pass through Zuffenhausen past the plant, conveyor belt bridge and museum about twice a week on my way to work.
Up until two weeks ago I had an Audi e-tron 55 quattro. Previously I had driven a BMW M550d touring (tri-turbo diesel station wagon) and an Audi RS6 Avant performance (605hp station wagon). Both were never available in the US, I'm afraid.
However, I was quite unlucky with my e-tron. At the time, looking for a replacement to my three-year-lease of the RS6 I was eager to go full-electric (also due to work-related enthusiasm). So, the Audi e-tron was the logical choice as it was the first out of the four German "premium" OEMs to enter the market with a vehicle significantly larger than the BMW i3.
Unfortunately, a few weeks or months after delivery in July 2019 the first electronic malfunctions started to show up. I started logging all malfunctions (about two dozen different ones) in a huge Excel sheet over the course of a few months and had >300 incidents. The last new one was an undetected failure of the eCall function for several weeks. That is when I wrote an e-mail to the Audi sales executive board member, Hildegard Wortmann, and asked them to take it back.
After a two-week deep dive failure analysis in the Audi plant Neckarsulm, they still couldn't resolve and/or plausibly explain some of the resolved and unresolved issues. That is when I finally decided to terminate the lease contract. Due to the history mentioned above and involvement of the Audi board they took it back without any further trouble at my end.
Then, I ordered a Taycan 4S. Order has been confirmed by Porsche AG, preliminary unbinding delivery date is September 2020.
Very much looking forward to it!
Also looking forward to having interesting discussions here! :)
Best regards,
Christian

Hi everyone, Brandon from Illinois, USA. My 4S is on the Goodwood and delivery will be in June. It’ll be my first Porsche, but not my last. Looking forward to learning more from everyone and sharing my experience.

Hello! My name is Filippo. My passion for Porsche is huge, and the interest for the Taycan is rising. I haven'y seen it in the flesh at my Porsche Center yet but I'm planning to see it soon. I would like to present in a thread the wallboxes of my hotel in Italy, part of the Porsche Destination Charging. Where should I do it? Thank you!

Hello everyone! My name is Damiën from the Netherlands. Ordered a full black 4S last weekend (30 May 2020), estimated delivery date: 10 August 2020. I expected a way longer waiting time so I'm positive surprised. It'll be my first Porsche, colleague driving a 911 Targa GTS and Macan Turbo, he convinced me to choose a Porsche too, as it is financially possible, no doubt!
Very much looking forward to it!!

My dealer gave me a detailed silver version when I picked up my car. It now joins the white one on my shelf.

Hi folks! Simon from Bath, UK here. Loved the Mission-E when I first saw it and happy that the Taycan resembles it! I have a deposit down with a UK dealer, and time running out on my bmw lease. This will be my first all electric.

Very pleased to have found this site and look forward to discussing all things Taycan
