    Configurator Update: 360 View now renders the gear tunnel leather + deviated stitching

    Nice find! Honestly like Duckman, I also went for the truffle brown for ā€˜safety’ but have been also playing with the configurator for kicks (as I’m sure others have too) and found the contrasting leather option quite fascinating to configure - but without seeing it in the ā€˜flesh’, was paranoid...

    New CarPlay Preview at WWDC 2024 + other articles

    Oh wow, didn’t know that feature had been rolled-out to in-production models already. I mean it’s at least a step in the right direction - baby steps I guess. :) On the HUD - thinking about it a bit more…. Unless there’s an agreed standard for all 3rd party Nav to send instructions in a...

    New CarPlay Preview at WWDC 2024 + other articles

    That’s definitely an interesting find - Thanks for highlighting. At first glance i thought it was just the default Nav until I saw the Apple Maps theme/colours. Even if it isn’t the whole 9-yards in terms of new CarPlay, it’d be a good step - ceding the main area of the dash to a 3rd party is a...

    Placed your Macan EV order? Post your configuration! šŸ™‹šŸ»‍ā™‚ļø

    +1 for body colour (ordered per my spec) - but agree it depends on the exterior colour chosen and/or the ā€˜look’ you’re going for (eg B&W ā€˜Panda’ contrast). For me, I just went for the off-road package as that ā€˜solved’ the problem for me, came with some other body painted front/rear bits added...

    Preparation Porsche Dashcam (Option QK3)

    Lots of good info posted in the 992 forums (see my post #3 above) about the connector and even pin diagram. Just note that for people to use it for 3rd party hardware, you can buy a socket adapter to tap the wires more cleanly as the connector by default is proprietary. I’m still thinking of...

    Preparation Porsche Dashcam (Option QK3)

    That’s good to know/reassuring GH - Could ask source your source of info (SA, Porsche Tech, Current Macan/Taycan Owner (as closest equivalent), etc)? I plan on checking with my SA later today when I drop by the dealer so will hopefully have another datapoint.

    Macan EV Wheels... help me choose! (pictures inside)

    Chose B & C... I'm a personal fan of the Spyder design. I would have loved to go 22"s, but road conditions were i live dictate that 21's are probably the 'sane' choice for a daily driver. 'B' - predominantly to 'match' the frozen blue main - my personal prefer to have gloss trim to remain as...

    Preparation Porsche Dashcam (Option QK3)

    My SA took the other path, recommended that it be fitted (just in case)... In my other vehicles, i'm using iRoad (a Korean brand) with additional battery but took the chance this round not to screw with running/tapping wires in the hopes of sticking as-close-to manufacturer spec as possible...

    Preparation Porsche Dashcam (Option QK3)

    Just wondering if anyone knows for the wiring preparation (QK3), is this for BOTH front and rear cameras? I'm sure most of us have spec'd this option but the generic write-up in the configurator doesn't seem to state. Wondering if any current Macan owners with this option (closest equivalent, i...

    New CarPlay Preview at WWDC 2024 + other articles

    Whilst we all can hope for this to happen, honestly unless it's been already 'announced' as a major feature (which, imo this is), i don't take it as a great sign... That and the fact that this new Macan EV PCM is Android Auto based (what my SA told me) doesn't give me hope that new CarPlay is...

    Passenger display with bluetooth headphones

    That's good to know... Just wondering how 'curated' this new App/Play Store would be. Would be handy to have other entertainment apps available (e.g. Netflix, Plex) to use/watch whilst using public chargers and for passengers (whilst on the move) - but you'd think that Porsche would want to have...

    Passenger display with bluetooth headphones

    I think all of us are waiting for the details of the new PCM... When i asked my SA, he mentioned that due to this being a OS using Android Auto, he mentioned that it wouldn't be the same as that found in the Taycan... but apparently would let us download apps (?) Guess we'll have to wait until...

    Hi All! New member to forum and first Porsche (and EV). Order for Macan 4 (Aventurine Green) placed about 3 weeks ago - schedule for Sept '24 Production. Ticked all the options i think would be useful (i hope!) and most of the nice-to-haves that i was looking for. Hope to learn from...
