Owning a used German car without a warranty is risky. It’s better to have coverage and save yourself from potential high repair costs.
This is generally true for all imported cars. They tend to be better supported in their regions of origin.
I switched from a Tesla to a Taycan and while it looks great, it feels less agile and the technology seems outdated. There are also some frustrations with settings not saving correctly.

It seems you might be misinformed on a few points. For instance, wireless charging is standard, and the driving dynamics are actually quite good.

Adjusting the driving mode is simple and doesn’t affect the car’s handling as much as you’d think.

Exactly, the suspension settings don’t make as much of a difference in terms of acceleration.

It’s not about fanboyism; it’s about being realistic about what the car does and doesn’t do well.

The points you’ve made about the suspension are not accurate. The Taycan handles quite well compared to similar models.

It appears you’re missing the nuances of my initial points.

Your statements were factually incorrect; it’s important to clarify that.
I’ve had several issues with my 2023 Taycan, including a poor-quality paint job and multiple recalls. In comparison, my previous Tesla S felt superior in many ways.
