For sure the Taycan has continued to depreciate heavily since I bought it last year. I bought it used with a 5 year CPO warranty with 10,000 km last year so it was discounted by quite a bit when I bought it. I talked to a dealer last week and taking into account the savings of 5% GST and 10% BC PST on trading in the Taycan for the M3 the net cost of driving the Taycan for the year would be $25,000 to $30,000. A high cost for sure for one year but not unheard for cars in this price range.
As bcrdukes said YOLO. My father passed away 2 years ago and that really reinforced my mindset that time is finite and limited for all of us. My budget doesn’t allow me to have both so just deciding which vehicle in their own way provides the most driving enjoyment. I don’t race my cars but sometimes still miss the fun, tactile feeling, and sound of shifting gears but on the other hand the Taycan Cross Turismo looks incredible and is so comfortable and the interior is much nicer than the M3.
