Indeed it looks like crap. Always used the tow hook option on my M cars and the dealers never touched the front, but this will be a first for us with Porsche, and I'm not sure what to expect.
Not 21 inch rim but saw the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 today on a Macan Turbo:Nice to see so many cars are delivered. Mine is expected end of September.
I see Bridgestone, Good Year and Pirelli tires on the 21ā rims. No Michelin? Iām very satisfied with the Michelins on my Taycan. The dealer told me I canāt choose the tires, the factory does this for you
Has anyone seen Michelins on the 21ā?
ā¦. Now all of a sudden I need to hurry up. 
Not the best communicationā¦ but at least youāre just a few days away!So I asked where my Macan Turbo was, it was promised 20/9 but got bumped to 20/10. Now I got a message that it will be at the Porsche dealership 23/9 at the latest
No, but the dealer is willing to change them , by delivery.Nice to see so many cars are delivered. Mine is expected end of September.

Thanks for the photos and review! In the vehicle with the Extended Leather option (the one with the Summerwood door inserts and Chalk Beige/Black leather), did you happen to notice if the outer surround of the centre console "grab handle" was in leather? With the regular (not Extended) leather package, the outer surround is a hard plastic. It looks fine but doesn't feel as premium to the touch for an area that you are likely to rest your hand. For clarity, I'm not referring to the inner piece of the grab handle which matches the door pulls and trim bar along the doors and dash; I'm referring to the part that surrounds the grab handle and extends down to the lower storage half of the centre console.Just been to see the 6 cars that arrived at Porsche Marin last night. One turbo and five 4s. I promised not to post exterior photos as they were customer cars that still had weeks of dirt on them from sitting at port.
Here are some interior photos and some observations from an existing Taycan owner.
1. Frunk is smaller than I hoped, not terrible just not as big as the Taycan and not large enough for my cool bag. The auto opening feature is great and will be perfect for small grocery shops.
2. Aventurine green looks darker in real life, as does Volcano. Copper ruby is very nice in the flesh and would probably be my choice if my wife hadnāt already chosen FBM
3. Interior fit and finish is very high, as expected, rose gold is better in the flesh but still not to my wifeās liking. Standard silver finish on door handles looks like a very good match for brushed aluminum door trim. Wood trims were not my favorite, slightly plasticky with fake texture to that just my opinion.
4 Turbonite looks better in real life, a good option if you donāt want black or silver
5. Wheel options were probably my biggest disappointment - they didnāt have the Sport wheels that I optioned by they did have the off road ones. Off road wheels excepted they all somehow felt like they were over complex and pretending to be something they werenāt. I get the aero coverage idea but none of them looked that premium.
6. Deviated stitching is gorgeous if you can afford it, doors without full leather feel cheap compared to full leather option but bear in mind that I have a lot of leather in my Taycan. If it is your first Porsche and you are on a budget I get it and it still feels like a very well crafted and solid finished
7. Tow hook is meaty, costs $2600 to get it done after the fact so I would recommend everyone spec it if there is any chance you might use it.
8. Trunk space similar to the Cross Tourismo, probably good for 4 for a long road trip if you are a good packer but you are going to need roof rails and a box if you need to pack anything more.
9. Minor gripe
the net pockets on the back of the seats, legroom isnāt huge and I would be surprised if anyone ever used them for anything - to be this feels a little cheap.
In summary this is a very similar feeling car to the Taycan. No discernible shortcuts in fit or finish, much easier to get in and out and very good looking in the metal.
Personally feel reassured that this will be a great car to own and perfect for us when the Taycan is just too low and fuel inefficient to take on more adventurous road trips.
I could only get inside 3 cars and none were updated with software or switched on so apologies on the limited findings here. I used the visit to help my wife make final choices on trim detailing.
The SA was very impressed after driving the 4 on training. He was raving about the handling, interior and in particular the lighting strip inside which responds to things like cars in your blind spot.
He confirmed that they should have them ready for customer pickup by the 20th.
Yes it is. I didnāt like the wood grain texture as it felt plasticky to me but I appreciate every one has different tastes.Thank you very much. Very helpful and I added in the tow hitch as a result.
Please can you confirm that this Oak Silver Metallic?
Much appreciated your pictures and comments!
That was the one car I couldnāt get into and I didnāt ask. My belief is that is leather but Iām not 100%. Hopefully the early bird customers who get their cars in a week will be able to confirm.
