    Headlight Alignment

    I noticed the headlight issue on mine and thought I was losing my mind... after all I have a rattle in the sunroof that is driving me bonkers.

    Buying vs leasing (and possibly buying then): my numbers

    Picked up my 4S tonight. MF was .0035 or .00383 buying out the $1095 lease acquisition fee. Since I said my plan was to pay off the car in 3 months, the dealer recommended I go with the higher MF. It bumped my payment $20/month.

    What's the order / delivery status of your Macan EV? [Update your status if/when it changes]

    I reached out to Porsche and they said Track Your Dream isn't available. I had to stay in communication with my SA to get updates on the vehicle progress.

    4S Just Delivered! Dolomite Silver + Truffle Brown Interior

    Barry... me too! My order was "released for transport" Friday so the dealer said it may arrive today or tomorrow depending on how many trucks they have going at the moment. Then the fun begins!

    First time charging story

    I think this is another great example (especially for first time non-Tesla EV folks) to do a practice run at EA before heading off on a road trip. That way you can get an expectation of what will/could happen. Thank you for sharing your story so we all could learn!

    Buying vs leasing (and possibly buying then): my numbers

    I just spoke to the dealer I'm working with and asked if the dealer had a penalty if we were to buyout the lease early. He said they get charged back if I don't make three full payments. That's fine with me! I'm attaching the residual calculator I found on another website, which seems to be...

    California Macan Electric Owner's Events

    It is supposed to arrive at the dealer on Sunday.... so I'm guessing I'll be able to see it in the next 7-10 days!

    Poll: How many actual Macan Electric’s have you seen in the wild?

    Just saw my first one (not at a dealer). Green turbo with the 22 inch rims in Palm Springs. Brought a smile to my face!

    How accurate is Porsche's Order / Delivery Tracking estimates?

    So strange! I put a calendar reminder about the freeze date so I wouldn't forget. Then a week before the freeze date my SA reached out and reminded me it was last call for any changes. You can ping your SA and they will provide the boat name and the VIN (which I requested so I could check...

    How accurate is Porsche's Order / Delivery Tracking estimates?

    I think my car missed the original boat too. Once it did leave Emden, my SA sent me the name of the ship so I could track it. We are through the Panana Canal and headed to the states!

    How accurate is Porsche's Order / Delivery Tracking estimates?

    Mine was scheduled for a 12/20 delivery but moved to 1/12 a month ago or so. On the two week countdown!

    Missing 'Mode' Setting - Macan 4 with PASM

    I had the Sport Chrono package in my Taycan but never used it. In our Cayenne, we have the compass instead of the Sport Chrono which I prefer. I built the Macan with the compass.

    What’s the config option you hope they adjust in future versions?

    I agree... I will miss the under trunk space in the Model 3 (and the Taycan). I could fit my grcery bags perfectly in the hole and they wouldn't slide around. However our Cayenne doesn't have it so I guess I'll just work it out. I would have ordered full leather if I could get it in chalk...

    Carwow: I drove these NEW electric cars until they DIED!

    Down here, we pay 23 cents per kwh at off-peak pricing. That means it would cost $23.00 for a "full tank." Plus we have solar so in theory, I'm charging the car off the sun. Is a gas car more convenient? Of course... but there are some fantastic positives they just can't touch.

    California Macan Electric Owner's Events

    My original delivery date was moved from Dec to January... ugh! I'm sure it will be worth the wait, though.

    What's the order / delivery status of your Macan EV? [Update your status if/when it changes]

    My 4S is scheduled to leave on Friday. The SA said he would send me the name of the ship so I could track it. Original delivery date was 12/20 and pushed back to 1/2/25.

    [Trip Report] - I'm peddling as fast as I can to generate electrons… PEC ATL to Santa Cruz in a Macan EV Turbo?

    Daveo4EV, I've enjoyed your posts and watching your journey across country. You have more courage than I would. Thank you for allowing us to follow your adventure!

    What's the order / delivery status of your Macan EV? [Update your status if/when it changes]

    Looks like my 4S may be delayed a couple of weeks. Per the SA, the car is at the port in Germany for shipping, which is scheduled for 11/29. Original delivery date was estimated at 12/20, then moved up to 12/13, and per the update I requested today, back to 1/2/25.

    Thoughts After a Month & 1500 Miles With My Macan Turbo EV, Coming From Tesla Model S

    I have a Model 3, which I do like a lot. It felt zippier and more nimble than my base RWD Taycan. We have a Cayenne e-hybrid now which is just too big (although it is FANTASTIC on road trips). I think the size of the Macan is going to be just perfect.
