G-Roar does a decent job faking G63 growl. Haven’t looked closely at consumption but I’m guessing terrible. Highway looks like this thing will get 220 on a good day (city driving maybe 250). Not a good vehicle for long commutes or road trips, but that’s not what I intend to use it for.

Correct electric G wagon. I’ve been seeing a lot more on the road as of late (likely due to last minute leases to take advantage of the ev rebate incentives). They’re hard to make out since they look identical to the gas versions. The light up grille and backpack in place of a spare tire are...

Thank you and will do!

So i said goodbye to the Macan Turbo and got a Mercedes G580. For me personally it was a driving height and position issue. I’m over 6 feet tall and felt like I was sitting on the ground in the Macan and didn’t have a comfortable place to rest my arm at my seating position. It wasn’t my favorite...

I’ve also noticed this. Recently I am getting significant phantom drain. I had 10% in 4 days while away from home. Before this I would have had maybe 1% loss if that.

I think as it stands exterior silhouette and light arrangement front and back look better on the Macan vs Cayenne, but maybe when camouflage is off I’ll change my mind. On interior I like that hvac vents are higher up on the dash vs Macan, but an additional screen for hvac controls seems like a...

I was just at Porsche service. They didn’t say anything about a hardware recall for my turbo. Just that there’s a software update due.

Seems like it’s a silver issue. And maybe early build silver issue. Hopefully it’ll be sorted out now.

Also never used harsh cleaners. Car had been washed total 3 times in 1900 miles and garage kept. 2 times at the dealership and one hand wash by myself with ph neutral wash foam. I exclusively hand wash my cars, with Griotts Garage and Adams products. This seemed like more of a QC issue. My build...

Porsche customer service got involved. Agreed to replace caps under warranty and will have my dealer complete the replacements on Monday. I was surprised the center caps were so readily available. Another Porsche Macan part for the interior took 4 months to get replaced.

Very strange, looks great in person. Must not be selling / or being ordered in large enough quantities.

I reached out to Porsche Customer Service, they basically just said to take it to the service center to get evaluated and nothing can really be done on their end. So I just made an appointment for this to be evaluated by service. I know that no vehicle is perfect, but I am surprised by the...

I wondered this too, but then thought if one didn’t come out wouldn’t they have given up after attempting 1-2 of them. Also I don’t feel any imperfections or dents from a tool trying to pry out. I’ll get in touch with Porsche tomorrow. Figured I’d ask here first if anyone had come across this.

I noticed this too, and the thought crossed my mind… oddly when running my finger across there’s no imperfection suggesting a scratch. It’s smooth to the touch.

I’ve only had my car washed 3 times. It’s garage kept. Low miles 1400 twice was at Porsche during service. Washed it myself for the first time today and noticed after initial rinsing that all the center caps were scratched up. It’s strange because theres no damage to the wheels. Has anyone come...
