Has anyone noticed the cars sitting at the dealerships that the window sticker says "Launch Vehicle"

These cars are well-optioned but they don't seem like they are selling! Maybe the discounts/lease deals will come sooner than we think!

Since mine was ordered, it does NOT show "Launch Vehicle" on the window sticker.

Would you rather have a Macan 4 with 25k in options or a bare bones Turbo? I'd take the Turbo!

Maybe these highly optioned cars will help hold the resale / lease return values!

My SA told me Porsche is not letting dealerships sell launch vehicles before 60 days. They need to be sitting at the dealership for people to see after the launch

At the dealership here, they decided to sell their launch/demo Turbo variants due to how long of a waitlist they had. But they kept the demo Macan 4s. So either they ignored the 60-day rule or it's more of a suggestion.

In UK my SA said their demo vehicles are provided by Porsche and they don’t have any choice in spec. He suggested they were loaded with options to help sell the options as once you had seen them you would want to spec them too.
