    Glad to be done with Porsche and Taycan

    The house burning down is silly, but the rest I am sympathetic. First one, then two out. Next day all working again. Strange! I also once had the driver window not closing but opening again. Tried a few times, then it worked. A few months ago for a week no navi, then suddenly it was back on...

    BMW i7

    Yeah, if they need the bling bling for certain markets, fine, but why not being smart enough and offer a base (cheaper) version without the bling bling for the rest of their customers? Same thing for the front grill, can easily offer 2 different design choices to soften the design blow! :whew:

    Glad to be done with Porsche and Taycan

    Don't worry. The smooth powerful ride, cornering like its on rails is out of this world. You'll love it. But I agree with the OP and it reflects my previous car experience with all the premium car brands, including the not premium VW, I owned. The Taycan was the most expensive AND the worst in...

    Will you test drive the Mercedes EQS?

    Gosh, glad I sqeezed out a 2% cash discount on my little EQA 250+ I've ordered a week ago. Overall, I am so glad, that there is so much more choice on EVs now!

    Will you test drive the Mercedes EQS?

    Great, but too long, no need for a 7 seater.

    Would you stick with Porsche?

    Nah, after over 2 years Taycan, not a convert. I ordered an EQA 250+ as a second car and will order a EQE SUV. Best software on the market to date for Europe. Never had a SUV, never liked it, so time to buy one and drive it for a few years. But I admit, taking corners with my Porsche is out...

    Had my first EV experience….(Tesla)

    How? By switching off the AC completely and then switching on the front AC? Have I really miss a button after 2 years? :rolleyes: After 2 years, and extreme hot temps of up to 38 °C with 98% humidity, I am learning a special grip to the back seat AC display to switch it on while driving. :whew:

    Yes, I have the 4 zone climate control. And yes, your baby will be hot.

    Had my first EV experience….(Tesla)

    With the AC and the touch screen, they copied too much from T - and then failed to make the usability better. Cannot customize any of these buttons and cannot control the back seats AC at all.

    Turmoil at VW: Porsches Postponed by Buggy Software Cost VW’s CEO His Job

    I drove an XPENG over the weekend. Trust me, the Taycan will hold up nicely in value, even with a degraded battery, because nothing in the world drives like it!

    Turmoil at VW: Porsches Postponed by Buggy Software Cost VW’s CEO His Job

    If Porsche CEO would see his "no. 1 responsibility" to create shareholder value instead of delivering great driving machines to his customers, he would be a total failure and I certainly would never buy a Porsche again. Remember the shareholder value idiocy of Mercedes in the 80. Almost...

    Taycan v. WTF is this thing anyway?

    Probably hired a German car designer from VW, who wasn't quite happy with the ID repeat rinse and polish strategy?

    Rented a Model Y

    $5000 option? Why not! But please fix the PCM bugs first!!!

    Lucid test drive

    How often have you used your frunk? Me: once in my Taycan, never in my MS90D for 7 years, does it even exist? Merc came to the same conclusion, so why is he ranting about? :rolleyes:

    Lucid test drive

    We have 4 Taycans and 4 Rolls Royce in our little development alone. I see more and more on the roads. My wife talked to friends, they were looking to buy an EV first time. They asked here about T. She said my husband thinks its no good, but he likes his Taycan. Guess what they bought... :angel:

    Lucid test drive

    Not really, he says: "It has a non-user-openable frunk filled with crap instead of storage space" That is nonsense! Who on earth needs a small frunk if you have a massive boot. It disqualifies the whole review of being a silly rant.

    Cross shopping w Lucid

    I looked at the EQS. It is a bit of a monster. So long. The trunk is huge. Almost feels like an SUV. Otherwise should be a great EV. The software what I've heard is the best you can buy, and limited Level 3 "Drive Pilot" is coming. The EQE AMG with this tech could be the sweet spot.

    Mercedes EQXX Concept

    Real road test with 140km left in the battery driving highway speeds through the Alps consuming 8.7 kWh/100km. The tech in the car is interesting...

    Will you test drive the Mercedes EQS?

    Always value your input as an experienced EV driver! That is a bit surprising considering the better aerodynamics? Is it the bigger engine, wider wheels, heavier car?

    Will you test drive the Mercedes EQS?

    Do we know 120k reservations were real? :rolleyes: Anyway, I checked with my dealer, and he said, they will have an EQS coming to the showroom in two months. Then we check it out, and then we might place an order if we like what we see...
