I bought it in mid-April. Thanks for letting me know that’s possibly an option! I’ll look back at your posts for more info! Thanks, Ben

This is insanely unethical and shady.. I bought a used CPO 2015 85D few months back. At the time my rated at 100% was around 265, now after this update, I'm at 236 or so.. that's almost 30 miles lost.

As it's not as hot anymore the problem seems to have fixed itself. I think for some reason the fan has a max fan setting or something so when it's on auto.. so example would be if it's like 95+ outside, car temp is 105, I set it to 73, it would only turn the fan say at 5, and with that...

Thanks Jas. I'm starting to think that my internal temp gauge could be off some how by a few degrees. If I turned auto to 65 then it would start blasting more and get it to what I think is closer to 73ish.

I'm not sure if my AC is not working correctly or maybe it's just the weird logic of how the auto mode works, but I've been noticing that when my car is really hot, like 85+, and my auto temp is set to 73, the AC fan on auto mode is like 4-5, with only the front air direction selected, thus...

Just did a video of my 85D 0-60 and at 75% charge it was right around 4 seconds, so my car seems normal. Just that the 75D felt faster off the line.

That was my first thought too, but nope. Standard mode on both. Not battery % either as the loaner 75 was at 50% when I tested it.

Ah, that makes perfect sense. I did feel that the 75 wasn’t as fast from 60 onward compared to the 85. I.e. 85 has more to give. So assuming both 0-60 is equal at 4.2, the 75 prob just has a faster 0-30 or so to give that harder initial punch but 85 catches up in the 30-60 or something like that.

So I took my 2015 85D to service for squeaking roof and wind noise last week, and they gave me a 75D with 10k miles on it as loaner for a about a week. Almost immediately I felt that the acceleration was just a lot more immediate and “violent” than my 85. Didn’t get to do any 0-60 tests with...

After a Vegas road trip 350+ miles each way I can report that the gen 1.5 seats were largely okay. No issues with the side or back but my butt with relatively low natural cushioning def got sore an hour in and had to shift a bit every now and then. A seat cushion would prob fix a lot of that...

Yes for me. EV drive train, price/performance, exterior appeal, cargo capacity, supercharger infrastructure/free supercharging, makes it still worth it for me. But without AP, it’s only by a slight margin for what we’re giving up in the interior polish/luxury department.

Interesting.. I wonder if they went back to that due to all the complaints.

When did you order yours? I ordered mine (placed the $2,500 down) 3/31/19, and my order agreement clearly states that is is non-refundable:

Was pretty much in your exact shoes 2 months ago. Also loved the styling of the Panamera - Model S sporty sleek large sedan look. Also needed large cargo space, under $50k budget all in after all taxes and fees. After much research, I just didn't think there was anything that was anywhere...

For those wanting to try to remove that end plate first, here’s the piece I’m taking about. Makes putting it in 100x easier. Note that you’ll prob never be able to get it in as tight as it was if you were to force it down without remove it it.
