Hello!
Long-time lurker, first time poster. I'm currently in the process of having Tesla buy back my car (long story), and currently browsing the market for options. I've always had my eyes for the Taycan and, to a lesser extent, the e-tron GT.
Are there any quality concerns or specific things I'd be missing out on getting an MY20 Taycan vs a new one? My understanding is that they're ~95% the same, with even the MY20s have gotten updates to PCM 6 so they can get things like wireless Android Auto (very important to me), so the big thing just being the MY20 having fit/finish issues associated with the first run of the car? I think I read some things about charging speed and/or Plug & Charge, but I haven't been able to discern what's fact & fiction here, and talking to Porsche dealerships have been.... less than helpful.
Within the same price category, I've been looking at a couple used Turbos, a couple new MY23 4Ss, and the e-tron GT.
Assuming there aren't major downsides to an MY20...

- Used MY20 Turbo seems like the most logical(? lol) choice, given the price to performance ratio + I won't end up forgoing the power from my current 2022 S LR.
- e-tron GT would be next, getting a fully loaded Prestige and likely leasing that just knowing the market right now.
- New 4S seems like the "worst" choice between the 3, just because ready-to-buy options around CA seem to be generally sparse and not with the options I want, and I don't really have months to wait to custom order one (especially with the whole heater thing recently).
