One trick I have learned about service loaner Macans is that the customers prior to me don't add the recommended fuel for the models that take high octane. If I have the loaner long enough to drain the tank, I notice it performs better when I add high octane for those models that call for it...

Here's the YouTube link with metadata stripped. Great cinematography, but the overtly branded jacket is cringeworthy. Reminds me of this episode from Friends.

GAAAHHHH!!! The dealer-spec grayscale plague even applies to exotics?!?

Well we’ll both be driven in black cars someday when it’s time to be transported in wooden boxes with flower arrangements on top.

Which car service do you drive for? The only time I’m in a black car is when I’m being driven somewhere, and it would be nice to have that ride in a Taycan!

If you don't cite @Administrator in your post, he won't receive a notification that you mentioned him.

You fail to appreciate Porsche's engineering achievements in blended braking and in high energy recuperation that made the Taycan's highly efficient non-one pedal driving possible. Until recently, Tesla relied upon friction braking whenever the brake pedal was applied, and only performed...

I’m skeptical that the recipe can be reproduced by different cooks in the kitchen. Every time I take hard corners at more than twice the recommended speed (which is several times a day), I’m reminded that I’m driving a Porsche. One corner I take often has a recommended speed of 15 mph and I take...

You must have meant something other than Consumer Reports. Consumers Union, the non-profit organization that publishes Consumer Reports, has never accepted advertising or other funding related to the products they review. They purchase all their test vehicles as anonymous consumers.

Fun review of the EQS. Taycan gets a positive mention at the very end.

I learned from some prior threads and Car and Driver test reports that roll-out is a normal part of straight line testing. Example: https://www.taycanforum.com/forum/threads/0-60-times-without-launch-control.4343

Always remember that the F&I office is the #1 profit center in a U.S. car dealership. Anything you buy there has an enormous profit margin, which is why the F&I manager is typically the highest paid employee at the dealership. Most U.S. customers gird for battle over the sales price, think...

Just curious, if you are drawn to Porsche for the driving experience, does Tesla have anything to offer? I've never driven a Tesla so I have no idea, but others describe it as more about being driven, and drag race bragging rights.

The premier supercar customization shop in my region is becoming a Porsche authorized dealer with their own financing and insurance brokerage, and a private club featuring an entertainment space with high end bar/dining/performances/events. So that's one way to go.

Alex, just curious, how do app services and Function on Demand purchases benefit the dealerships that are losing service department revenue? I assumed the former benefit Porsche Corporate and not the dealerships.
