Hi Ben, I ordered KaruunHi Paul. I am certainly satisfied with the Macan. Unlike the Taycan, there are few technical problems. I now sometimes hear a thud at the front near the speed bumps. The cause is probably the engine mount. The dealer will check this soon (Porsche bulletin # 2432).
Furthermore, my brakes sometimes seem to 'stick' when driving away, if I have not used the car for a few days. I also had other tires put on it. I already wrote a thread about how the tire choice at Porsche is a lottery. I had the Bridgestones replaced by the much quieter Goodyears. They also have lower rolling resistance.
But other than that, the Macan is fine. It is significantly quieter than the Taycan. I had air suspension in the Taycan just like now, but this is also more comfortable.
When I bought the car, the 20" inch rim was too ugly and there was nothing left but 21". Now there is more choice and I would recommend the 20” Macan S wheels.
The finish is top notch. Just like with the Taycan, I opted for the extensive leather package and the beige stitching contrasts nicely with the black leather dashboard. Also again a beige leather interior.
In retrospect, I should have ordered the Karuun wood. However, there was no example of that when I made my definite order, so I didn't know if it was a good choice. I will also have the rear window wiper sprayed in body color. You couldn't order that back then either.
Great, I saw different reviews and understood that the 4S is close to the Turbo, I decided not to but the Turbo but a pretty full 4S for the price of a standard TurboMade the same choice, for usage in the Netherlands I think the Macan 4 is totally satisfactory, so I used the price difference for some extra options.
I noticed you will have the truffle bown interior too, nice!
