I use a hand wash car wash facility. The ceramic coating prevents swirl marks even though the attendants are not as careful as me. If you are planning to use an automatic or drive through car wash, you will get swirl marks with or without ceramic coating.
Earlier today, I was able to lock in my delivery date at the Porsche Experience Center Atlanta for October 21st (it was the first available appt). I wonder where the car will be stored (ETA arrival in Jacksonville, Florida tomorrow) for the next 5 weeks (Jacksonville or Atlanta).
The ship just left from its first stop in Davisville, Rhode Island and is enroute to Jacksonville, Florida. Then the Cayenne Coupe (base model) will be transported to the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta for delivery.
Once the new Cayenne is delivered, I will pre-trade in my 2023 Cayenne S Coupe (ICE) towards my 2027 911 T that will hit milestone 4 at the end of the week.
The freeze date was May 26 (Milestone 2). The build date was June 22 (Milestone4). No dates set for milestones 9-12. The car will be delivered to the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta. I was told that was the reason for no dates.
My Cayenne Coupe Electric was in milestone 4 going into the annual August factory shutdown. Today I got an alert that I reached milestone 5. A few minutes ago I received another alert that I reached milestone 6. However, no VIN shows up in the app and no production pics are posted. I will call...
For those of us in the States, the use of radar detectors is common. I checked the configurator a few minutes ago with the hope that the construction of the insulated glass evolved since the last Cayenne I bought three years ago. It does not appear it has changed. The description still says...
The same debate about heat and the lack of a sunscreen occurred when the Taycan was introduced. Many of us with the early Taycans did thermal readings and the debate went back and forth. I did not have the thermal glass option on my Taycan mainly because I wanted to ensure the windshield allowed...
I just checked Suncoast parts for the current and prior models of the ICE Cayenne. Clear side markers are not available. The only reason that clear Porsche OEM side markers are available are for non-US models that have clear markers in their home market. The European Cayennes both ICE and EV do...
I don’t think you will find them because the European versions of the Cayenne don’t have the side markers, unlike some of the cars (Taycan, 911). This was the case with the ICE versions of the Cayenne too. Most people who don’t like the amber either tint them with dark film or spray.
I think that the US EV market is really tough. Having owned the original Taycan, I had a great introduction to EVs. I used to travel 1000 miles between Connecticut and Georgia in the Taycan with absolutely no issues with range, charging times, or the often ill spoken of Electrify America...
My base coupe has been in milestone 4 since June 22. No vin yet. I also have a 2027 911 T on order. The projected timeline for the 911 is 17 days from milestone 4 until milestone 5 according to the My Porsche app.
I have it on my current ICE Cayenne S Coupe. It makes U turns possible into the inner lane. I had it on my Taycan, and spec’d it for my incoming Cayenne Coupe EV and 911T.
Same here with regard to my Taycan (positive experience). I had the first 4S delivered in the US. There were a number of software updates during my 3 years with it. Overall, I was very happy with the Taycan, hence my confidence that my new Cayenne EV will be an awesome vehicle. My car after the...
I received a call from my SA on May 8th that he had a Cayenne Coupe Base EV allocation. He grabbed it for me. I received the commission number. The My Porsche app said it reached milestone 2 (config locked) on May 26th. This is the same SA who got me my Taycan 4S allocation back in 2019 (it was...
I got a call today from my SA that my allocation for a base EV coupe was available. I spent the evening going through the configurator to build a car for the wife. It will replace her ICE Cayenne S Coupe. I’m waiting for my other allocation for a 911 T with 6 speed stick, cloth insert manual...
