So that's where all the Taycan buyers are. Marin.

Waze routed my morning commute to SF via Golden Gate Bridge from the East Bay due to bad traffic. Then I was also routed off 101 for a few miles and re-enter 101.

Along the way, I saw 4 Taycans, no less. For the past year, I must have seen like 2 Taycans in the wild. Then 4 in 1 day all over by Marin / Sausalito. ha.

I have a buddy who had a Taycan Turbo and just upgraded to a Turbo S because “he has to have the best”. I was chatting with him about my 4S order and he said everyone in his neck of the woods has a 4S and he’s glad he has the Turbo S. This is down in one of the LA burbs.

Yeah, he’s funny

I ordered my taycan from dealer in Marin, and SA said they sell the most Taycans in CA…henceforth get a lot of allocations…. They were my first call as they were closest to me. I live all the way up in Humboldt County. Glad I did! They had just gotten two allocations (this was in July), and I’ve had a great experience with them to-date. Pretty sure I’ll be the only person in Humboldt with a Taycan… actually a touch concerned with standing out that much. Haha

The pac heights-Marin coffee run I do most afternoon breaks involves at least 2 taycans every day. There are 10 on the street in this neighborhood alone.

Just drive through Medina, WA. Safe bet that driving through it once, you'll see at least 2-3 Taycan in those 5 minutes.

ok, good thing I'm down in SoCal, otherwise I'll have to upgrade to a Turbo S. :)

ha. I'm in SF all the time, and maybe saw 1 Taycan a year ago. Mostly in SoMa for clients. So not in Pacific Heights area.

When did you ordered yours?
I also ordered from Marin, but delivery is Jan 2022.

Pictures, details, full review. We want the whole scoop.

I ordered at launch, went to Marin because they had a 4S allocation (I originally wanted a turbo but I think 4S is plenty). I actually live in Berkeley so I’ll be making the trip over there to pick up in a few hours.

I guess I’ll have to post some pictures before I start peeling back trim pieces to see if the fender plastic can be removed :)

I live in and ordered from Marin. Finished production today, so you'll see one more (gentian) 4S on the road soon. I see a lot of Taycans around here - they are selling like crazy! For those not around here, almost every new car on the road is a Tesla. They call them the "Mill Valley Prius" :). The transition to electric is happening quickly...

I have yet to see a Taycan in the wild in Central Florida.

Dude!! I ordered with Marin a week after launch, but no more allocation, then got an allocation in July. Congrats!! So jealous. I really wanted it for 2021, tax reasons, but will have to be patient and wait. Hopefully there's no delays and I actually get it in Jan.

At the time in March, I tried every dealer in the Bay Area to find an allocation. Nobody had any.
