Nice.
Looks like it's being charged at a Porsche 22 kW charger.
Where is that, and how long dies it take to get charged?

Sometimes we get the bad with the good. Our Macan is now getting a long series of software updates, now into day two of that process at the local Porsche hospital. It sure still looks good to us, and it was phenomenal for the first (only) 34 hours we had it, e.g., handled, braked, steered, accelerated and more so well during our very short time together. Hoping for its return to us soon so we can do more active loving and driving.

Here is my new Turbo that I just got yesterday after months of order time and waiting. I believe I am the first Aventurine Green with Neodyme Wheels and Truffle interior.

Neodyme looks outstanding. I didn’t have the nerve to do it and went with Turbonite on my RS Spyder wheels and trim. My garage is very similar, to yours as I have a Brooklyn Grey M2. I’m partial to grey - my wife’s X5 50e is also Brooklyn. Congratulations on taking delivery of your Turbo!

Wow, just checked, a nice hotel.
I have bookmarked it. Must visit one day. Just 16 hrs drive from London. In our range-extender Macan, should be easy ;)

Pretty looking car with nice standard wheels. In real, these wheels look even better, and good for range : )
Did you drive from Amsterdam to the wine region of Priorat? How was it?

We drove from Amsterdam to Spain in two days via Dijon. No real traffic issues because it is off season. Charging goes quick and there are plenty fast charging stations available along the highway. The 14 way seats are also contributing to a relaxing drive. Choose the 20 inch mainly for the extra range, but in normal weather conditions range should not be an issue.

There is a skyscraper grey X5 parked on the far right of the garage that is not pictured, it's a great color too.

That’s incredible - we have essentially the same garage! Macan Turbo, M2 and X5. I’d say you made great choices and have good taste, haha.

That is not an M2, it is an M240i. It is my son's car (he is 18, got it when he was 16, I let him custom order to start a lifetime habit).

Yes, I recognized that it was a 2 series and not the M2, but very close and the same color as my M2.

Side note - The M2 was very unexpected - after many BMW M cars over the years - numerous M3s, M5s and an X5M. I bought this G87 M2 (manual) in 2023 while I also had a G80 M3 Comp xDrive. I never expected to like this car so much. After all the most expensive M and BMW models, it turned out that the G87 was the closest car I have owned yet to provide an enthusiast driving experience. I know this might be unpopular, I even ordered a 911 GTS last year (2024, 992.1 manual) - I enjoyed the M2 more and it was exactly 1/3 the cost of the 911. For me, after many cars, the M2 is a keeper.

Anyway, sorry to hijack this thread. I am loving the Macan Turbo so far. Your spec caught my eye - as well as your very similar garage. Looks terrific. I have not had any issues whatsoever with my Macan - I suspect the problems might not be as common as it may appear on this forum. Have fun and enjoy it!
