So sorry to hear you had a vandal smash you quarter window. Thank God it was only the Quarter window.
Any other window would be so much worse. Great to hear that Porsche and the Dealer stepped up to the plate.

After this incident, I had front and rear cameras installed to serve as a break-in deterrent in addition their primary functions.

Upon reflection, I wonder why the rear quarter glass panels are tempered glass, whereas the rest of the glass panels on my Taycan is double insulated thermal glass. Any insight into this would be appreciated.

Seems like the primary reason for it is to allow for safer/easier rescues and escapes from the car (in addition to being cheaper and lighter).
