Yeah mine has an Pollak adapter installed too. I wonder if some dealers are forgetting to install the kit, or the factory missed a step.. Or its just some dealers doing us a favor.

Thats the risk the leasing company takes. The car belongs to Porsche, not the dealer. Porsche will likely auction it. You may be able to buy it at the auction or have a dealer buy it for you.

There may be an occupancy sensor, sensing driver's weight. May need adjustment, most modern cars do this now days.

My Feb 2025 Porsche lease has a $69150 residual at twelve months, on a $97,500 car (15k miles). About 71%

Now 3000+ miles and now over 3mi/kw average with a 40mph average speed. This is a 4S with 20 inch Pirelli MS all season tires. Default settings. Our mini averages 4+ mi/kwh over 20k+ miles. Most of the time was on 30-40 mph twisties. Most of the miles on 70+ mph highways. A few scattered 80...

Yeah, you loose the origination fee up front, $1400 on my $100,000 Macan if I recall correctly. Which leaves about $6000 saved. It costs about $450 a month in "rental" l fees on a 12 month one pay lease. The numbers worked out that you break even at month 10 or so. Waiting a couple months to...

There are a couple long threads on leasing and comparing the terms vs a cash buy. Talking about Porsche leasing, your down payment is based on car value (what you are going to pay the dealer) and term., Your monthly payment is based on current interest rates for your credit score and term.. You...

Let us know what you think. There were no Macan version reviews, but the few other car applications seemed positive.

They were referring to guessometer experience before the comparison video so it was not apples to apples (like). Based on a very small data set. To them it seemed like the RWD would get far better range but that was based on very different driving style and perhaps environment. The RWD had less...

Yeah, far is subjective. From the anxious EV driver's point of view, 10 more miles range is far. :) If driven similarly, I think the wider turbo tires may suck up more range than just about anything else.

Nice video I think their reliance on the guessometer for range is misleading. I was willing to compromise a bit on "feel" to get the nasty weather performance AWD provides. RWS makes for a car that feels much more maneuverable on city streets but probably not as useful on slow speed open...

I like the fold up style, this is the only one I found and put it on my Father's day gift list. :) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F5Z3GMC8/?coliid=ISGTUGMG013IG&colid=1D6F0CBSLWO4M&psc=1&ref_=list_c_wl_lv_ov_lig_dp_it

I think what you are seeing is the basic setup of using the Porsche app at a charging station, free or not. The dealer has to do something to activate the free year and he usually does that during delivery as the SA goes through the car and profile setup. .

I notice mine has broken in a bit over 2000 miles and a couple months. It still needs a firm hand, but not as much as when new. And my muscle memory has adjusted to the point that I'm not slamming my other car's doors.

Make sure carplay works and have the dealer set up plug and charge before you leave the lot. (if you get something similar in Canada). Before driving off, turn off all the driver's assistance features until you have a chance to investigate how they work. You can be surprised and confused by...
