Pictures do not do it justice. Every aspect of this car glows!

A few points on the build. I opted for standard 20” wheels for comfort and with the the idea once I actually had the car, I could get a second set of rims 21 inch with a sportier look but once I saw those standard rims on this car I was surprised at how really good they look with the silver so I may just call it a day for now.

Thanks …three days programming seems to be the standard cycle time. Sales manager pointed out that each car has a custom program based on the options configuration which is why there is no single program that can be applied to all cars. Hence the extensive effort to program each car. still I am pretty sure there are inefficiencies that could be leaned out of the process..

One thing I noticed off the bat is that the navigation data takes some time to update even after the programming has completed. The updates include map data and voice data. My initial Drive had a lot of strange behaviour and confused feedback, but after a few hours, it seem to walk back from, a state of insanity to something that made a little more sense. There seems to be two voices. Siri and some other strange female voice filling in for micro directions. A straight google map navigation would be better but maybe more use will change my experience I would be curious to hear what other people are experiencing

Great looking build. Is the interior limestone beige or chalk?

It’s called chalk-beige in the Canadian configurator. Not sure if it the same as limestone beige. The only other option was chalk (basically white). This chalk-beige goes perfectly with dolomite silver.

This looks like the standard interior (no stitching on the dash), which means it's limestone beige.

Man I love the light color interior. But, if the dealer didn't warn you - denim jeans will stain it.At least, it did on my '18 turbo with agate grey/pebble grey interior.

Congrats.

Good to know. I am more of a mountain tech gear clothing person because it rains a lot here 🩳 so I’m probably good

Our 4+ year-old Taycan Turbo S has 23,000 miles and beige seats. Yes, it does pick up a blue trace from jeans. However, Amway LOC (or probably any mild citric-based cleaner) mixed with water as instructed easily removes the blue by using a spray bottle to moisten a microfiber cloth and then wipe the seats. Do spray anything directly on the seats, especially if they are cooled seats.

You can have 'Hey Porsche' and / or Siri active for voice controls - probs best to settle on one.
