Thx - guessed this might be the setup and indeed if that light in Normal prob quite acceptable. I've poked around a bit on future Mini SE reviews/specs but cannot recall actually if BMW has a 'coasting' capability (i.e. region off) built in? Don't wart to turn this thread into a Mini vs 500...

Man I both hate and love when they do this - hate the fact I'll almost certainly never be able to afford such a car and love it because it's' ridiculously awesome :)!! I'll go drool somewhere else now.....

Profess ignorance as actually do not know if our Porsche batteries are LG sourced (realize they setup CellForce and also use Draxlmaier Gp. to manufacture but do they still source LG tech/materials)? Obviously with VW named there is a chance that they are? Fairly sure someone on the forum...

Great info - thx for sharing - saw one in Germany on our visit a week or so ago and indeed stepped up the design imo too. We are still holding out for the next gen Mini E as the wife is a die hard fan and I actually prefer the aesthetic over the Fiat also - but never say never :)! I may...

Having since been up close and personal with one I can readily say you couldn’t pay me to have one - some specs def interesting but Taycan design just in a different league.

Interesting - I'm guessing those that focus on software function (probably quite good) over (external) form!

New owner sent me a pic of my prior M4 convertible at Red Rocks - def pining a bit for this car - 8 years, a daily driver and not a single issue (seriously!). Design-wise light years ahead of current crop. In Houston: Now in Colorado:

OMG that is truly BUGLY (butt ugly :)) - really enjoyed the design ethic of my prior M cars (other than bangleisation!) but agree entirely they are now lost to the (Chinese market) wind!!

No, you specifically addressed the aesthetics interior and exterior so entirely on point for me - I too have read extensively on their engineering and battery design innovations etc which indeed are impressive but the other has to be present for me to ever consider it as an option and a number...

Good to get an unbiased viewpoint on this car - have not bothered viewing as TBH I also cannot get past the exterior but this review puts a nail in it for me! Thx for sharing.

Yeah this is my feeling too - I want to like the look of this car, it is an amazing piece of tech, but the design just falls short for me - the 2023 optional stealth 'matte' roof top look helps re color combos but it's the overall exterior design that for me can't match the Porsche. This...

Forums can be both the best and the worst in respect obtaining useful and accurate information :). Invariably there is a bias towards folk reporting issues vs. the usual majority of those that just drive the car w/o issue - my experience def closer to the latter. For a better sense look at...

We will almost def get a new electric Mini Cooper (S) when it arrives on 2024, hopefully sooner, simply because she is besotted with Mini’s :), but I get it! Other than that could not be happier with the Taycan as it is right now for all the reasons others have stated.

Well I hate to re-enforce that but I sold my M4 vert (2014 build, 2015 model year - the first Euro delivery M4 Convertible to the US no less) for $45K ca. 2 months ago with an offer literally on the day I posted it online - should have asked for more!! The whole 'grill-gate' thing is what...

apparently you have - maybe read the manual ?- in the AC menu, look at top right on main screen - tap ‘Rear’ then tap ‘off’! Turns off rear and leaves only front on.

This beauty was in my local dealership last March - posted it in my Mods thread then - a little different I know :) Seem to recall it being in the $250K range! The one beside it not too shabby either :)

No experience with Tesla so off my radar - again imo the AC controls are just fine but did take time to be comfortable with. And as both I and @Dee said, I very rarely muck with these at all so just not an issue for me. In regards the rear AC, you can at least turn it off from the front...

I don't disagree re tactile feeling of analog dials/buttons which is exactly what they provide in the steering wheel, but my response addressed your contention that the only volume controls were on the driver's steering wheel leaving the passenger with nothing - clearly incorrect. And in...

and the center screen where AC is displayed has a passenger side +/- volume button set on bottom right, always up front and couldn’t be more convenient for the passenger to also control the volume if desired - what were those Porsche engineers thinking!? :) Crap pic but only one to hand; vol...

Have to say despite some initial reservations, I have gotten used to the digital AC controls and TBH do not really adjust airflow that often if at all (the most obvious loss of a tactile input), but mostly fan spend and temp which are readily accessible in one simple interface on lower screen...
