I only have about 3500 miles and have the same marks. A local dealership said it was normal, but obviously would like a second opinion...heh.

Yes to me it sure doesn’t look normal but they assured me it’s safe.
I don’t buy it.

Those look like the PSCB (Porsche surface coated brakes), which would be normal for those brakes. On a Macan or Cayenne they become mirror finished in 4-5k miles, I suspect it will take a lot longer on a Taycan with it's light use of the brakes.

That's not normal...they normally go from not shining to mirror like ...in a very short period
But maybe the taycan has less brake wear than
a cayenne

Don't have a Taycan yet but my Tesla's brakes look just like that.
Its normal tungsten brakes on taycan, that layer will come off after some miles,depending on how hard you drive
