Macan 4S ordered PSE7UUQ8. Dec 20 Delivery
Country flag
I just stopped by my dealer to finalize our 4S order before it locks this month. Here's what we ended up with

Some changes from the original plan.

The 'interior trim' in wood really didn't do it for us, so we switched to aluminum. This also caused us to change the door sills from black to regular aluminum. Interestingly, the 'illumination' option for the sills is currently 'Stopped' - for all types, so we skipped it.

We selected the default side blades, and black gloss window trim. The side blade texture does not show well in the configurator, but we like it.

Our sales associate convinced us that the acoustic glass has durability and cell-phone related problems, so we removed that (he didn't mention the delivery delays possible). The demo car we drove was plenty quiet without it.

We tried the massage 14 way seats in a demo car, and decided to go with that option vs the 18 way sport seats.

Upgraded to the GT wheel in leather too, hey, it's a Porsche!

Our car is due to lock in mid-end October, get built November 15-20, and ship out for delivery in mid January.

We're on our third Ambassador in 12 months, and this one is certainly more on the ball than the previous 2 about getting this locked in and providing advice on what to get and what to skip, and detailing exactly what's going to happen and when. Our current build saves $1000 over the original one we created too
Looks great. I had not heard of the constraint on the sill and I have it on my build. I will have to inquire. It is odd that some people are notified and others not. I did my final build today for a freeze date of Oct 13 and delivery Dec 17th. I am not expecting the dates will hold so that way I won't be disappointed. Also a 4S. It's funny looking back this looks nothing like my very first build months ago. I had a 4 and they let me switch with the S cam out. I went to see a Slate Grey Neo 911 that had just arrived and changed from the Ice Grey. Color is tough. Lots of good combinations. Thanks to everyone on this forum that helped inform my decision

My understanding (from my SA) is that only the carbon fiber illuminated sills are constrained.

Today, we couldn't order any illuminated sills. That was the only thing on our order we needed to change due to supply constraints.
Same with my 4S order I finalized this weekend. Illuminated door sills and the thermal and noise insulated glass were unavailable.

The order I placed ~6 weeks ago just shows "LED-Matrix Design Headlights in Black", but it is code 8IV, which is the same code the build page shows now for the "LED-Matrix Design Headlights in Black incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS+)". So I think they just changed the description, not the functionality.
The PDLS+ designation went on the description and then came back off a couple weeks ago. I was assured by my SA that the two options were purely cosmetic. I wasn’t totally confident that was correct so I just kept the option ticked (assume I will like the look of it better anyhow).

Placed my order three days ago. Macan Turbo, due to be built early December for delivery early January.

Wouldn't normally go with a subdued colour like Volcano Grey, but I saw one with the Turbonite elements and it looks superb. Classy and luxurious.

Just been told by my dealer that illuminated door sills may delay the order. I've ordered the dark aluminium.

I was dead sure there was a topic for this but couldn't find it... so here goes.

I've finally firmed up my configuration. Lock day is just a few weeks away but I'm done tinkering with the specs.

Porsche Macan Turbo Electric - Code PRBZ88E2
Delivery scheduled for October.
  • Ice Grey Metallic
  • Leather package in Black/Chalk
  • 21" Macan Turbo Wheels
  • Sports Chrono Package
  • Rear Axle Steering
  • InnoDrive

PRBZ88E2



Will still try to get the "Model Designation on Rear and "electric" Logo on Side" removed, don't have the option to in the US configurator but exists in other countries (option code 0NA).

Kept the options to a slim $6.3k, half of that for performance related items.

What about you?
I also wanted to remove that electric logo but was told that it was not possible. In Europe also.

Yes, that's the one I saw which convinced me to go for Volcano Grey with the Turbonite accents and rims.

I removed the model logo and didn't spec the Electric logo (that wasn't free). Maybe it's market related...

Just placed an order today with an allocation that had a freeze date in 3 days. Thankfully have been playing with configurator for awhile now, and having had a few Porsches in the past and experienced with the intricacies of the rabbit hole that is the Porsche configurator.

The car is for my wife, no need for sporty enhancements. It was hard for me to hold back on some of the sporty options as I have on my car, but at least I was able to get the 4S despite her not needing anything more than the 4. The 4S allocation was going to deliver sooner and was minimally more expensive in our configuration. The color and trim choices are a little bold and out there but I feel it will be special feeling and keep her happy for quite some time.

Always the fear of regret on the final option choices, but feel pretty good about our final build.

The car is for my wife, no need for sporty enhancements, and she wears polarized glasses so we decided to not do the HUD.
