    PCM doesn't display the Chassis Level option anymore

    This weekend, I ran into a very odd issue: I am unable to choose the level/height of the chassis (Lift, Normal, Low, ...). The information is gone both from the PCM > Drive screen and the instrument cluster behind the steering wheel (little icon on the right). I can however feel the car...

    Macan model mandatory badge

    Hi @Administrator, While I kinda like the badge shown on the profile, I canā€™t say I love it being mandatory. Seeing a number of members who donā€™t own a Macan (or are even quite critical about them) that feature a Turbo badge on their profile for instance. This sends the wrong signal to other...

    Survey: How old are you?

    Chatting with a Porsche marketing person, they confirmed the average Porsche customer is about 55 years old. EV tend to be computer on wheels and as a general rule, we could expect younger people to be more at ease with how to operate them (system wise). It got me curious - how old are the...

    Did you RTFM?

    After being away for a little bit, I'm catching up on what happened here and was amused/surprised at all the new threads and questions asked. Which makes me wonder, do you read the manual of the car or just wing* it? *Winging it includes asking questions here. šŸ˜›

    Edit: Explanation is in post 5 below. -- Original post: I got my Turbo on a 24mo one-pay lease as I've detailed in other threads. Signed a check for $50k+ and in a couple of years, I can choose to keep the car (and pay $70k+) or return it at likely no cost. Looking at my first statement from...

    Buying vs leasing (and possibly buying then): my numbers

    People keep saying ā€œleasing gets you $7.5k credit, itā€™s amazingā€ and I have been very vocal (say here or here) about leases being a money suck, especially when wanting to purchase at lease end. I always based my stance on the interests paid over the course of the lease but then came across the...

    My Macan EV Experience @ PEC ATL -- Q&A + AMA

    The visit at PEC ATL was *very* interesting! I had booked 2 sessions, my plan was to do one sitting in the front and one in the back. Didnā€™t quite go as expected - for the better. Arrival I went early so I could also visit the Porsche Heritage museum (floor B1). Itā€™s actually fairly small...

    Dua Lipa x Porsche: Macan commercial

    It is an interesting and unexpected collaboration. Makes me wonder whether Porsche is targeting millennials with its Macan Electricā€¦ even though theyā€™re usually not ones to spend money on big ticket items.
