The blue seatbelts and chrono look great with the white interior! I debated between blue and red highlights with my black interior and ultimately went with red.

I posted earlier in the autumn but have finally test driven a Macan 4 at Exeter Porsche. When driving my wife decided that we needed the Racetex steering wheel so here is our final configuration. I am though still undecided on the rear wiper or not - thoughts please.
https://porsche-code.com/PSHF9GC2 and the freeze date is 13/01/25 and anticipated delivery date to Leeds UK is end of Feb 2025. Getting this by the UK tax efficient salary sacrifice scheme.

Will be having black side blades now rather than body coloured I'd previously selected.

Looks better without. Most sedans don't have it. I think a good rain repellent might do the job.
Then in sunny Leeds you might be better off without it. ;)

I would tend to agree on the look and the Exeter Porsche centre said that none on their demonstrators have been specked with the rear wiper.
We are Actually in Somerset but the company that operates our Salary Sacrifice scheme is Yorkshire based and has a great relationship with Porsche Leeds.
Will be a range test when we collect it as about 320 miles to home!

I went without them, I think it just looks a lot cleaner. My sales guy also said it's not much of an issue and most go without (which he personally recommends as well).

I ordered mine without the wiper, purely for looks.

And another Volcano Grey Macan 4 ordered early November and due for delivery somewhere April/May

I followed the dealer's advice and did not spec InnoDrive, 4-zone climate, heated windscreen and thermal glass. Having read some of the threads in this forum, I think I might miss some of these options but nothing major. This is going to be our DD with a lot of short trips around home, plus a few longer trips over the week-end or during vacation, so this is going to be just fine :)

Except heated windscreen, he advised not to, but I went for it anyway. It works very well and I use it often when needed. If you press rear window demister, it clears fog front windscreen and back very quickly. Also in rain rearview becomes better.
