  1. [ADVICE REQUEST] 2026 Macan EV Build-Out

    Great news that you found a car to fit your specifications. I think the 4 will handle better in the bad weather than the base would have. I’m looking forward to seeing more pictures when you have a chance. I think you be glad you have the sport chrono and the passenger display. The dash looks...
  2. [ADVICE REQUEST] 2026 Macan EV Build-Out

    A light in the charge ports would be nice as well.
  3. [ADVICE] How much discount off MSRP can you expect from ordering a new MY2026 Macan EV?

    You have a ton of dealers in your area. I would get a price from at least three dealerships unless you have a loyalty to your current one. I was looking at a turbo at Woodland Hills that was 45k off the sticker. It was an unusual situation but they kept going down on the price even after I had...
  4. [ADVICE REQUEST] 2026 Macan EV Build-Out

    I am probably in the minority on this, but I would recommend the passenger display as a relatively inexpensive option. I would not have chosen it but it happened to be on my Macan 4. I was searching for Burmester and insulated glass so that severely limited my search. My wife finds it handy...
  5. [ADVICE REQUEST] 2026 Macan EV Build-Out

    I think the heated windshield is going to affect your cell reception a lot more than insulated glass. If I’m not mistaken, the heated windshield has a metal mesh layer to provide the heat. I would leave off a few options like sport sound, the backrests and alcantara headliner to make room for...
  6. Bose Sound Pack - Opinions

    I do know a few people that work at Bose. Their headquarters is a couple towns over. I'll ask if they know which design team it was.

    So you have a second Macan on order? I love the Yachting Blue Metallic which is similar to the dark blue.
  8. Berkshires, MA Macan 4 owner

    I would be up for a meet up sometime in the spring. I used to participate in a BMW Climb To The Clouds when I had an M3. We drove up Mt Washington and down the Kancamagas over a weekend. It was a fund raiser and pretty well attended with about 30 cars. Not looking for something that...
  9. Bose Sound Pack - Opinions

    Any speaker designer will agree that there is a break in period to seat the drivers. Times will vary from minutes to hundreds of hours depending on manufacturer. Quantifying the change is impossible. I know that a new shoe is going to take some time to break in but as far as I know there...
  10. Bose Sound Pack - Opinions

    Keep in mind the speakers need about 100 hours to break in. They will sound a lot better after a few months.
  11. Bose Sound Pack - Opinions

    The old adage no highs no lows, must be Bose. BYD is putting Devialet systems in their high end brand EV. The Q6 has Bang and Olufsen in the Prestige trim but you have to pay a subscription to access the eq.
  12. Bose Sound Pack - Opinions

    It also depends on what type of music you listen to. If you are looking for a more defined soundstage and clearer vocals, I would recommend the Burmester. The Bose is going to be louder and have more bass than the standard system. If you are purchasing vs leasing, a good stereo shop could...
  13. Macan EV a bit small for our dog?

    I test drove a Q6 Prestige. I chose the Macan and missed out on a few bells and whistles. Way more fun to drive. And the Audi has had a ton of software issues.
  14. Watch out - new luxury package available for UK

    Interesting they put Sport Chrono in there. Not in the Premium
