The delivery time mainly depends on the model and whether it's customized. Last year, I ordered a standard Porsche 911 and waited for over three weeks; for a customized version, such as adding a sports exhaust and special color, it took around two extra months. Popular models like the Cayenne are often in short supply, and when dealer inventory is low, you might wait six months or even longer, especially during the holiday season. Shipping from the German factory to China takes about a month by sea, and customs clearance can be unpredictable. It's advisable to contact your local dealer early to check inventory—if you're in a hurry, an in-stock car can be ready in just a few days. Otherwise, customization is a great option, but plan your time carefully to avoid disrupting daily use. Maintenance costs are high, so prepare your budget during the wait—consider buying a temporary commuter car for better value. Overall, Porsche's reliability is solid, and delays aren't a major issue; safety comes first.

From my past experience buying a Porsche, the delivery cycle typically averages 3-6 months. My first Macan with standard configuration took less than two months, but now supply chains are tighter; customized options like bespoke leather and wheels add another 1-2 months. Factors affecting delivery include model demand—the Cayenne and Taycan EV are particularly popular—and regional differences: major cities like Beijing have more inventory, while smaller areas rely on pre-orders. Before purchasing, I recommend checking dealership inventories online or considering certified pre-owned vehicles as alternatives—they’re not brand-new but save time and money. Don’t just focus on waiting; handle loan and insurance paperwork in parallel. Porsches hold their value well, so the wait is a worthwhile investment—avoid rushed decisions that could strain your budget.

How long does it take to pick up a Porsche? I've consulted with the salesperson, under standard circumstances it takes weeks to months. For non-customized cars with available inventory, it can be as quick as a few days; fully customized cars built from scratch take around 6 months. Key factors include the model: 911s have limited stock and require longer waits; shipping to China by sea takes about a month. Contact your local dealership directly to inquire about inventory lists, which can save time. If your budget is tight, consider alternative models instead of waiting indefinitely. Don't forget to prepare for insurance and vehicle inspection.

Where should the ETC be installed?

The ETC is generally installed on the upper middle part of the front windshield for regular vehicles, while for large vehicles like trucks and buses, it is installed on the lower middle part. The suitable installation position should be no lower than 1.2 meters and no higher than 2.5 meters, with an installation angle between 30 to 90 degrees. For vehicles with anti-explosion film or those that have been retrofitted with anti-explosion film, which may affect the signal transmission of the microwave communication link, the ETC should be installed in the microwave sunroof strip. ETC stands for Electronic-Toll-Collection, meaning electronic toll collection system. To apply for ETC, the vehicle owner needs to provide original and photocopies of their valid ID card and vehicle license. If the application is handled by someone other than the owner, the agent's valid ID card is also required. The photocopy of the vehicle license should include the page with the most recent annual inspection stamp. A bank card for deducting highway tolls is also needed, and the vehicle must be registered under the name of an individual aged between 18 and 60. For company vehicles, the required documents include: An introduction letter from the vehicle owner (with official seal); photocopy of the organization code certificate or business license (with official seal); original ID card of the agent; original vehicle license; and the vehicle that needs to have ETC installed. Here are some precautions for installing ETC: Do not obstruct the view. It is best to install it behind the rearview mirror: Many car models have windshields with a large rearward tilt angle, which reduces the driver's field of vision. If this is not considered during ETC installation, it can increase the driver's blind spots. Installing it behind the rearview mirror on the right side can help avoid obstructing the view. Do not interfere with charging: The ETC electronic tag consumes power but generally does not require charging or battery replacement because it has a solar panel on the back that can charge itself. Therefore, during installation, avoid the black areas on the windshield and positions that may block the solar panel. Once installed, do not remove it casually: The button in the middle of the adhesive is an anti-removal lever connected to a switch. After the electronic tag is installed, the windshield will press the anti-removal lever in. If the tag is removed casually, the lever will pop out and trigger the switch, locking the electronic tag and rendering it unusable. In such cases, you will need to visit an ETC service point to unlock it. This mechanism is designed to prevent multiple vehicles from sharing one device. When using ETC, note the following: The ETC transaction sensing area is 8 meters. To prevent the ETC device of the vehicle in front from malfunctioning, maintain a distance of more than 10 meters from the vehicle in front to avoid automatic toll deduction for the wrong vehicle. The ETC lane recognition speed is 20 kilometers per hour. Driving too fast may result in failure to read the vehicle's device information, leading to toll deduction failure. When using a debit card linked to ETC, insufficient balance may also cause toll deduction failure.

What causes car shaking when pressing the accelerator deeply?

The reasons for car shaking when pressing the accelerator deeply are: 1. Ignition system: Spark plug issues, which could be due to expired lifespan or excessive carbon buildup. The solution is to replace the spark plugs; 2. Intake system: A dirty throttle body or oxygen sensor, which can lead to an improper air-fuel mixture ratio, naturally causing shaking. The solution is to clean the dirty parts; 3. Fuel system: Common causes include injector failure, fuel pump issues, or clogged fuel filters. The accelerator, also known as the 'throttle' or 'gas pedal', is the control device that regulates engine power (thrust). In piston aircraft engines, the throttle controls the carburetor's throttle opening to adjust cylinder filling, thereby determining the engine's output power.

What is the normal RPM for an automatic transmission?

Automatic transmission normally operates at around 1800 to 2000 RPM. The prerequisite for upshifting is acceleration, while the prerequisite for downshifting is deceleration. Higher gears are more fuel-efficient, but this doesn't necessarily mean higher speeds. Lower gears can also operate at high speeds, providing strong power for climbing hills, though they consume more fuel. Whenever road conditions permit, it's advisable to use higher gears. An automatic transmission typically refers to a car's automatic gear-shifting mechanism, where the transmission control system automatically selects the appropriate gear based on engine speed and load, replacing the driver's subjective judgment and manual shifting operations. Most automatic transmission cars have six gear positions, arranged from top to bottom as: P, R, N, D, S, L.

What does the BYD Qin EV function restriction mean?

BYD Qin EV function restriction generally indicates damage to the vehicle's high-voltage system. Below are the relevant details: 1. Handling EV function restriction: When the car displays an EV function restriction, it is essential to promptly take it to a repair shop or 4S dealership for professional maintenance to avoid unnecessary issues during vehicle use. 2. Detailed introduction to EV: EV is the English abbreviation for electric vehicles. On hybrid vehicles, the full name of EV is HEV, which stands for hybrid electric vehicle. Hybrid power means the car uses both gasoline and electric power as driving methods. The advantage is that when the vehicle starts or stops, it relies solely on the generator. The engine does not work until a certain speed is reached. Therefore, the engine can always maintain optimal working conditions, with good power performance and very low emissions. Moreover, the source of electrical energy is the engine.

Which gear to start with?

1st gear start. Generally, cars have five forward gears and one reverse gear, which are 1st gear, 2nd gear, 3rd gear, 4th gear, and 5th gear. Starting is usually done in 1st gear. Unlike automatic transmissions, manual transmissions require stepping on the clutch when shifting gears. 1. Walk around the car once before getting in, check the tire pressure, and look under the car for small animals. Check the surroundings of the vehicle. 2. After getting in the car, fasten the seat belt, adjust the seat, and adjust the left and right mirrors and rearview mirror. 3. Make sure the gear is in the neutral position, the handbrake is engaged, and press the clutch and brake with both feet. (If the clutch and brake are not pressed and the gear is not in neutral, the car will either lurch forward or stall immediately when starting the engine.)
