I was just informed that the navigation unit has been upgraded to MIB3 to match that of the Taycan. So a bit of a better interface for those ordering now.

I was told July builds would be 2022.

When the pillars of body came up the windshield, with the glass sunroof option, they had an odd widening to them at the top, that broke up the color lines.

Now with the 2022, they have made all of the roof that is not sunroof body colored, just like on the steel sunroof version. Which in my opinion makes the glass sunroof car look so so so much better, so much that I would option a glass sunroof on a 2022 build but did not on my 2021 build.


2020/21

2022
Definitely subjective. I *liked* the blacked out roof panels, myself.

Dealer is saying my June build will be a ‘21.

Is it worth trying for ‘22 instead? Less depreciation?

So for those of us waiting for their allocation to lock, are we forced to reconfigure under the new system?

Agreed, the blacked out panels are a better look.

Garage Pilot:
  • The Garage Pilot uses the same principle as the remote-controlled parking and is used when the vehicle is to be parked in a narrow garage without the driver being in the vehicle. The driver can also use this function to make the vehicle leave the garage.
Does this mean remote start is standard 😜

So for those asking about build changes, etc. with regards to existing allocations and 2021 v 2022.

If you have an actual allocation, that allocation/build slot should be for 2021, especially if it is being built in April, May or June. Those are 2021 model year cars.

If you wanted a 2022 build instead, you cannot simply roll your allocation into 2022 and take the changes and pricing increase due to the following.

1. Your dealer would have to trade your slot to another dealer or sell it to another buyer or build it themselves for lot sales whoever is building it is still bound by your likely soon and upcoming freeze point. And dealers don't particularly like to change buyers with less than 4 weeks to freeze as that date can move and the new buyer gets very little time to make their obsessive compulsive decisions.
2. Your dealer would have to secure you a new allocation from the 2022 model year allocations which they get monthly or so, and that car likely won't start production till July/August or so with a September/October delivery as they change to the 2022 model year production schedule. The dealer may have a line of buyers for those slots, and they may not know when they will get those allocations.

Dont know which statement is accurate.....its possible the config is not updated for those 2 models or the rationale that its around the tinting liability....which would exist regardless of model if it were true.

Hopefully its a sourcing issue and it comes back at some point during the year....

Shark blue looks nice.

But glad I got my 2020 model when I did. $5000 CAD price increase since then, no quad exhaust tips, and Apple Car Play is a subscription option now? Yuck.

Same question. Ready to put a deposit for a confirmed allocation. Wondering if I am forced to pay $2K for literally nothing.

It indeed looks darker on the new config. But if you change the virtual background, it becomes lighter.
