    Attended the British & European Auto Show in Dallas yesterday

    My wife is not a car enthusiast, but it was a beautiful day for the event, in Dallas’s White Rock Lake (I call it Dallas’s “Central Park”), and they had a food truck (“Fish & Fizz”) that my wife loves, which serves excellent gluten free fish and chips. So, since it was Mother’s Day, we just...

    Did anyone option the air filtration system? Opinions?

    I did. My main concern was that the system would require expensive maintenance. My SA assured me it would not. Time will tell. In any event, the system seems to be very good. Someone mentioned in another post on this forum that it seems like their car gets dusty quickly. I have not had that...

    PECLA Visit Last Week - Comp. Turbo vs. 4S

    So, first off: if anyone is going to be in LA and is wondering if it’s worth $800 to go to PECLA for a 90 minute driving session w/ a pro coaching you, let me tell you - it’s SO worth it! Just a really cool experience. I wanted to do it, in part, to resolve my FOMO over getting a 4S instead of a...

    Teeny tiny sun visor solutions?

    I think it is safe to say that, whatever our other disagreements on finer points, pretty much universally Macan EV owners agree that the driver's and passenger's tiny, non-extending sun visors are among this car's most glaring/absurd/almost-comical design flaws. (I say this as someone who...

    POLL: Pick your top 5 most desirable options for Macan EV build

    Let me know if there are any other "most desirable" options I left out. . . FWIW, my top 5 (currently - I reserve the right to change my mind!): #1 rear axle steering #2 sport seats #3 club leather interior #4 sport chrono package #5 electric sport sound

    Has anyone taken their Macan on a track yet?

    I am looking forward to seeing some YouTube footage! Also, I am weighing whether it is worthwhile to take a “drivers edge“ or similar course at a track here in Texas. I assume one would need to find a track with a level 3 charger… Anyone have thoughts/experiences to share?

    "Tariff Adjustments" are coming, says my SA

    My SA just texted me to ask me to come in to do the deal today (even though car's not ready yet), saying "I'd hate for you to be affected by the tariff adjustments." If he's being truthful, then that could mean even vehicles that clear customs before the tariffs go into effect could still be...

    Tariff anxiety . . .

    If the car is still on the boat on April 2, and the threatened tariffs go into effect, I'm assuming Porsche will pass the expense on to the consumer (me). What if the car is off the boat but still at the port? Is the result the same? Unfortunately, I'm going to be white knuckling this, as my TYD...

    Have there been any ‘official’ reviews of the 4S by trade publications?

    I have found several reviews of the Macan Turbo, Macan 4, and base Macan but virtually none about the 4S. Has anyone else come across anything specific about driving dynamics of the 4S from trade publications? A recent Autocar article (posted elsewhere on this forum), suggests that the turbo is...

    Dash cam?

    So, other than for insurance purposes or track driving, is there a use for the dash cam? And, in the US, is insurance cheaper with the dash cam?

    Is NTX to Aspen do-able? How much of a pain is it to find chargers along the way?

    My family and I frequently make the road trip up to Colorado. I would love to take the trip in my 4S after it arrives in March (hopefully). Has anyone got experience making the trek from Texas to Colorado? Any tips?

    Loaded 4S or lean Turbo?

    I am interested in the community‘s perspective on this: I have two alternative builds linked below. The 4S is pretty close to fully loaded (no HUD), and the turbo is performance optioned + leather interior, but otherwise pretty lean on extras. The price on both is pretty close to the same. From...
