4. Frankly speaking, my opinion, 4S+ is wholly unnecessary as a daily. a 4S is another 25k or so for a little more pace and red brakes.
You want to go fast and get an amazing driving experience direct that 100k in price difference in the turbo S to a 911.
unless you want to stop light race teslas.
which may still win

Congrats! Great spec. I had a short drive in one on an autocross course and was very impressed with the handling.

wife and i decided to head to Palm Springs for a pastrami sandwich and some carrot cake (Sherman’s) and to walk around and enjoy the mod 70s weather. Good little road trip in the new toy. The car road trips well. Very comfortable silent and fast. Passing power is instant. Drove it like a Porsche and got over 2.5mi/kw which i think is pretty good for long crusting at 80+ and a fair few hills. Range anxiety isn’t a thing. Ea plug and go worked fine. Left at 85% hit charger for 20 mins before heading back, no issues…
the car is kinda different looking and more than a few people asked about it. I’m used to that in my orange 71 but not for a daily station wagon lol.
oh. Fixed the parcel shelf rattle… rep here are 6 little rubber “legs” that fold out 2 of them were retracted. Car is dead silent.
went and saw 7yo nephew on way back. He likes cars. He loves launch control! Hahhahaha

Car looks good and I liked how it drove, looks like my purchase of a non-GT Porsche will be a Taycan CT.

its actually black
just the light
I have a note to dealer service to swap that center panel. the wart IS large. But, I like the capability you get with the wart (specifically the individual profile and sport plus setting)

Nice pics love the look and the color also. Seems the darker colors do look better on the CT especially to offset the body colored wheel arches. Sport Turismo GTS's don't have that problem but are lower and I'd rather have the extra height ability when needed then not. My delivery is tomorrow and yes I am almost excited! . Dealer sent me some pre-delivery pics from the PDI once off the transporter and programed and set up and detailed on Friday. Happy with my color choice also of Volcano Gray!

Very nice, I agree I think darker colors just work better on the CT.... maybe I don't love the cladding so much.
I'll say this: I live in coastal SoCal. This area is full of every make model of exotic and high dollar daily (g wagons and lambo suvs are as common as teslas and Lexus around here)...
Every day I have had this car out, I get comments and questions about it. Lots of taycan sedans around here, did see 1 other CT
Weird, I'm used to that in my bright orange classic 911, not a daily driver... !!!!
