How can a car with such a big panel gap over the front wheel pass inspection and leave the factory?

Hey, my Taycan left the factory with a paint imperfection on the door the size of grain of rice (despite it being 'premium' paint), missing GTS etching on the side skirts, missing GTS badging on the rear and missing GTS brake and accelerator pedals (standard pedals installed obviously LOL). Clearly the Germans QC isn't what it should be.

BTW...the detailer who applied the ceramic protection to the car said he had done a 'Crayon' Taycan with multiple spot imperfections on the one door.

I been saying this for a while.

As a consolation he did say that the paint job on the S-class was fantastic, when he did that car. Factory 56 must have a good paint shop.

Alas, the once stereotypical "German Efficiency, German Attention To Detail, German Quality" has progressively been diminished to little more than a distant myth. 15 to 20 years ago, who would have suspected that South Korean and Chinese manufacturers would hyjack these lofty attributes ?

Quite contrary to what I had initially anticipated, I think that I prefer the EQS. The EQE, despite being a large automobile, somehow looks like it belongs in a segment one to two rungs lower. Both are "odd". But the EQE sedan is "pedestrian homely" as well.

i also think that the EQS looks better, but its also 40.000 EUR more expensive...
the EQE for me looks ok, but the rear is maybe to short and in some pictures it looks more then a car 2 segments smaller (more lik a c-class and not e-class), but i must see it in person, the car is 4,95 long afteralll...

More than 500 units were sold in its first full month in Europe.

These particular images place the EQE sedan in a more favourable light. Yet still...there's something about the car that bothers me. For one, I get a very strange, "commercial vehicle vibe" that one should not get when scrutinizing an upper-executive segment sedan. Almost a wee-bit "VW Caddy-esque"...:

A "slope of a short bonnet" sort of thing, I reckon. Along with the waves of the flanks.

I think it all depends from the spec…

In person I feel the EQE looks much more taut than the EQS which is to its advantage.

Did you see it here in the US?

Congratulations to whoever designed the EQE.

You have just made an even uglier car than the EQS and the G70 7-series.
