  1. Tariff anxiety . . .

    Good news for some of you... sadly, mine hasn't even left Emden yet. It's starting to really look like a tariff sammich for me... that I'm definitely not planning on eating :)
  2. Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    Oh you mean like how you policed my reply to the thread to begin with? Must be ok for you to do it, hypocrite. My original reply wasnā€™t directed at you but to the thread in general since the topic was digital car key and this happened to be a topic that influenced our recent car purchase...
  3. Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    Nope. Not moving goalposts, not concealing anything. I didn't mention the other reasons because 1) the other reasons don't mean anything because ultimately digital key really was the main reason she chose the X5 over the Cayenne with the two being evenly matched otherwise, and 2) that is...
  4. Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    Reading comprehension much? Read my original post again to which you replied to, and no where did I mention the lack of digital key was the sole reason we didn't choose the Porsche. It was ultimately the deal-breaker, but not the only reason. You are simply arguing over your failure to...
  5. Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    Digital key is not inconsequential at all. Like someone else said on this thread, people will place a different value on certain features. Some would say the availability of manual transmissions on some 911 models is inconsequential because "PDK is better" but for me, I will keep buying...
  6. Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    Well thatā€™s a bit of an elitist comment... why wouldnā€™t we be in the market for a Cayenne and cross-shop it with an X5? They are pretty comparable in certain trims, and in my wifeā€™s case she wanted a comfortable V8 SUV to replace her SQ7, so we were looking at a Cayenne S vs X5 M60i. Ride...
  7. Tariff anxiety . . .

    My car is still at the factory and eta is not until late April/early May, but I have already decided that I'm only going to buy a $137k Macan Turbo and not a $171k one. I'm walking if it's the latter and I'm not going to stress over it until then.
  8. Carkey on Audi A6 (PPE), coming next on the Macan?

    Porsche already lost a sale in my household because of this. When my wife needed a new daily driver, the Cayenne's lack of digital key made her choose a BMW X5 instead. Even I enjoy our BMW's digital key feature - I hate carrying fobs around. Wish my Taycan and 911 had it. Didn't stop me...
  9. Porsche Electric Sport Sound Get it or not?

    I spec'd Electric Sport Sound on my Taycan GTS and love it. I will admit that after a while, the novelty of the sound wore off and I got tired of it, so I mostly leave it off now. That said, I still turn it on occasionally when I let the car rip and it does still add to the excitement of an...
  10. Sport Seat Headrest Does Not Adjust

    Headrest adjustability and massage are what made me choose comfort over sport seats. I do love the side bolstering of the sport 18-way seats but I figured on a daily driver like the Macan, I would appreciate the massage and headrest adjustability more.
  11. Does Porsche send production line photos at the Leipzig factory like they do for Zuffenhausen?

    It was pretty cool to get production pics sent to "Track Your Dream" when my Taycan and 992 were being built. Do Macan EV owners get the same perk or do these cars just don't cost as much as 911 to qualify in the eyes of Porsche? :)
  12. New Delivery Turbo - Ice Gray

    Looks awesome, and congrats on winning the tire lottery! :)
  13. New delivery 2025 4S

    haha, excellent! Mine was spec'd by my 9yo, which is why it'll be frozen blue. She spec'd the exterior and interior color and trims at least. Your car looks great, so great job by your 15yo. Enjoy!
  14. Wireless charger

    I don't own a Macan yet but during my test drive of a Macan Turbo, I placed my iPhone 16P with an Apple-brand magsafe silicone case in the Macan's wireless charging compartment and it charged with no problem. My wife has a thicker non-Apple case she bought from Amazon and it would not charge...
  15. SGN and Bordeaux on Gold wheels Macan 4S pick up

    Congrats. Beautiful spec!
  16. My Porsche App in CarPlay

    Works on 992 and new Cayennes too. Weird that it wouldnā€™t work on Macan EVā€¦ perhaps it has something to do with its Android-based OS? Somewhat related, does EV routing in Apple Maps in Carplay work in the Macan EV like it does in the Taycan? (where Apple maps syncs with the vehicleā€˜s...
  17. Switch from eTron GT / Taycan

    My Macan Turbo is due to arrive in late April, and I will be swapping my current Taycan GTS for it. I hope I donā€™t regret it too. Based on my test drive of a Macan Turbo with 22ā€œ wheels, it does seem to ride better than my Taycan GTS, but it did crash a bit on larger bumps and potholes...
  18. Here's my Turbo build. 2 weeks in the making šŸ˜‚

    I hope not. Because I'm sure not going to pay $171k + taxes on a Macan. I'd just keep my current Taycan if that ended up being the case.
  19. Here's my Turbo build. 2 weeks in the making šŸ˜‚

    No more waffling between options or agonizing over spec choices. Build is now frozen (blue)
  20. Both manual charge flaps not opening - Macan4

    Sorry about your issues OP. Hope it gets sorted for good and you don't really end up selling your car. And here I was thinking I'm taking a big risk by spec'ing the power-operated charge doors option, but I guess it seems both the manual and power versions are trash designs. So I actually...
