Merci, that’s reassuring! I don’t know if the alpine roads are as salty as in the US, here they pretty much coat the road, to the point that you have to use your windshield wipers to see through the salt.
? As mentioned in another thread, I’ve found the Bose system to be pretty disappointing, but it’s definitely much better than the standard system, which is (I think) unacceptably bad for a car at this price.
As an audiophile snob ? I’ve always found the Bose systems (and Bose in general) to be quite disappointing in the different cars I’ve had. In the 911 it was fighting against the engine noise in most situations, and in the ICE Macan, I found it slightly better because of the probably better...
@tmrqs have you checked the Four wheel trader Taycan depreciation videos? I’ve watched most of them when I was looking to buy a used Taycan. They are a bit scary, but they will give you historical trends by trim and model year.

Steering and throttle inputs are definitely sharpened in sport mode, that’s pretty much what the mode does (outside of chassis and height changes).
Interesting findings re: regen. Since normal is the new range mode on Macan EV, I’m not surprised it’s aggressively turning down/off the front...
Same here! It’s much cheaper, and since I don’t change the wheels or tires myself, the only downside is that my 21” Macan Design wheels will probably age faster, because of the salt.
Seems like with this first series (similar to the Taycan launch?) when people have issues, they're serious issues. My guess is that in the majority of these cases, Porsche is on it and will try to make things right. I'd definitely like to hear more from people who voted 3.
? @nulled in the past, I always checked the Sport Chrono box to get the dial, but this time I really hesitated, since the dial is now standard. In the past, it was also the only way to get the PSM Sport mode (i.e. stability management not entirely off), but I'm not not even sure it's true...
Mostly happy (I voted 2), here is my reasoning:
Pros
Handling, power, air suspensions, overall fun!
Looks better than I thought (ice grey ?) I had a few doubts before delivery
Rear-wheel steering is amazing
Build quality (only issue: doors alignment is good, not perfect)
Range is (so far) more...
I have to say, being able to save specific driving settings has annoyed me in the past, like the fact that sport mode always came with sport exhaust by default. I remember companies selling aftermarket modules to change some of these default settings.
I wouldn't cancel my order for that of...
From what I've seen, you do want some parts removed because it means 1/ the installer won’t risk damaging the paint when cutting the PPF, and 2/ they can properly tuck in the film.
Same issue on my side, the front doors require too much force to be closed properly, and half the time I have to re-close them. This is not ok, but I'm pretty sure the dealership is going to say they can't do anything ?
I do see the Assistance systems error a lot these days. It either clears by itself, or I have to wait for the next drive. That said, I have a pending software issue with my dealership, they've delivered my car with an outdated Android version (discussed here).
It's not NJ, but I can vouch for Detailing Dynamics in Long Island. I live in NYC, and that's where I have taken my cars for PPF and ceramic coating. They're not cheap, but the the quality is worth it.
