    My Macan EV Experience @ PEC ATL -- Q&A + AMA

    Thanks for the write-up on the Macan EV experience at PEC ATL! I'm surprised they haven't been flooded with test drive participants consider what even a 90 minute session at PEC costs. I was an early adopter of the Taycan in 2020 and went through all of Porsche's v1.0 growing pains. I hope...

    Thank you! It is spectacular on the wrist. IMO, it's just the right balance between flamboyant but restrained. No one really knows what it is, unless they're a true Porsche or Tag Heuer enthusiast. Kind of like our cars!

    I ordered the TAG Heuer Carrera Chronograph x Porsche 963. Waiting for it to arrive. Supposedly only 75 units were available in the US.

    Porsche NFT, anyone?

    I will attest to @cd77 's comments about this Porsche NFT project being about building a community for like-minded tech-forward Porsche enthusiasts! It has nothing to do with cryptocurrency scams. To use another metaphor, NFTs are closer to Pokemon cards or baseball cards -- a digital...

    Porsche NFT, anyone?

    I was on the allowlist for the mint but chickened out when I thought I was buying a Porsche Configurator picture with no utility other than "cool things to come!" Moreover, 0.911 ETH (~$1500 USD) seemed financially imprudent at that time. Fast forward 4 weeks, and I kinda wish I'd minted 2 NFTs...

    2024 Porsche Macan EV — More Specs & Video Released

    This will be more rear-engine than the current mid-engine-ish 992! I'm all for a volume seller that will help Porsche keep the 911 and other enthusiast cars alive. Every Porsche griped about the Cayenne in the early 2000s, but Porsche as we know it would not be here otherwise!

    Says the Taycan owner after plugging in their Level 2 EVSE cable before bedtime. ;) In all seriousness, I wear my TAG Heuer x Porsche Connected smartwatch on workdays as a "tool" watch to monitor notifications on my phone and track steps / fitness. On weekends, I'll swap to a TAG Heuer Monaco...

    Selecting between cars can be done on the My Porsche app on the watch. Here's a screenshot where I can choose the Macan in my profile, for example: Obviously, there won't be as many watch-controllable features for ICE cars. It mirrors the functions that can be done through the My Porsche app...

    Does driving a Taycan make one an official EV and/or Porsche brand ambassador?

    The US Porsche dealership charging stations look like this: At least in Austin, it just takes a visit with the receptionist to request the key card (at no charge), then you can start charging your car up to the max 270kW rate!

    Does driving a Taycan make one an official EV and/or Porsche brand ambassador?

    Does your local Porsche dealer have a fast DC charger? I like going to mine for a quick charge and a free snack. (Although an intended 15 minute stop invariably turns into an hour after poking around the latest 911 trade-in and shooting the breeze with my SA!)

    Finally got a decent photo of both TAG Heuer x Porsche watches. Analog (to match my Boxster S 550 Spyder 50th Anniversary Edition) versus digital (to match Taycan 4S), WDYT?

    My Tag Heuer Connected Calibre E4 Porsche special edition arrived last week. I love having the My Porsche app on my wrist, including a complication that shows battery SOC!

    I'm a bit of a TAG Heuer x Porsche fan. That said, I am wondering whether I'll get the call to buy at MSRP a 992 GT3 or Rolex Daytona first?!
