Re: Condensation on all windows

I bet one of those many options is a sun roof ;)

There have been some issues :o The seal between inside and outside may be bit leaky - open and clean all around seal make sure there is no tree debris up there? Just a thought :?

Re: First Taycan seen

<<cannot believe the performance available for an electric car,>> We picked up a 3 year old BMW i3 as a second car last month. The performance to about 50mph is.... electrifying (sorry).
