40+ years for me.. Not surprised at all.. :like:

My understanding was that they: 1) use google maps as a base 2) connect with cloud based algorithms to do the planning. I suspect they are struggling with the myriads of new chargers (and CPO's) coming on line in the US (maybe in the EU and other parts of the world also). They have also...

Welcome.. Wow..that’s exactly my history with Porsche! I had a C4S, a Macan S and now drive a 4S. I’ve had the 4S for over a year now. Same exterior color. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have. No major issues.. just some minor software glitches so far. Hope you enjoy it!

Are those add on apps? I can't tell. If they are, then they definitely get updates over the air... just like any app on your iPhone or Android.

They are definitely equivocating on EV’s for all sorts of reasons. Starts and stops and questioning direction is not a good way to compete in this fast moving world. It’s also clear they were so focused on engineering driving dynamics (a really good thing) that they failed to properly...

I had it on for the first few weeks and found it pretty useless after getting used to the car in different conditions. I only put it on now if I'm doing something new or on terrain that I've not experienced before. I find the similar meter to be either distracting or pretty intuitive in the...

I got a 39 month lease. The technology in this space moves so fast that I didn't feel it was worth buying the car .. especially since it was a 'first' of it's kind. I figured by 2028, the competition would be there and Porsche would have made some progress. Given their software mess and...

So this is my third Porsche from 2 different dealers (first EV) .. I've also owned BMW's, Mercedes. My experience with premium brands is definitely dependent on the dealer I buy from. Poor dealer, poor experience. My experience with BMW is the same as your experience with Porsche ...

This definitely sounds off in calibration and/or battery.. I don't think mine has ever shown 210 at 100% .. even with the coldest temps here in the east. It lately show about 220 at 80% and then goes down to about 185 at 70%.. and around 135 at. 50% (during the summer, it shows more) I just...

Which version of Google maps? I am not getting it on my HUD.. I am not getting it on anything but the PCM display.. Waze at least shows on my dash display. Apple maps shows on both... although the 3d graphics on the HUD showing turns etc. only show with the built in navigation.

Well.. that's disappointing.. I guess it's not really a class competitor. I have a 4S and I'm very happy with it so far. Yes, it has a few quirks on occasion but man what a great car to drive! I wish Porsche would get their computing/software act together and start pricing their cars to...

Indeed. The seat heaters in my cars work exactly as was stated. The drivers side stays on between 'sessions' and the passenger's side goes off every time we get out of the car and it resets. I have never tried to turn them on remotely from the app. I suspect that's not possible but as I...

GIven the recent reviews of the GTS, I would opt for the GTS at this point .. especially if you are coming from a Taycan.

I’ve had this happen twice in the past year and I have avoided getting the latest update so I don’t think it’s necessarily related to the update. I think it might have been related to Apple CarPlay and the Macan internal WiFi not connecting properly but that’s just speculation. Either way, I...

Saw pretty much all of the video. I guess I’ll have to try the GTS and push it hard since my experience with the 4S has not been anywhere near as ‘twitchy’ on the steering and curves as he seems to claim. I have to admit, I have not taken it on the track nor on twisty mountain roads at very...
