Go strong or go home. No grey (or gray if you prefer) for me. Your combo was on the short-list for me as well. The cost of the truffle leather tipped my hand in the end, but there's nothing classier.

My new motor, at the dealer just before the PPF-shop came to collect it. Photos by my SA.

It's being offered by Porsche on my new Macan 4S with 20" standard wheels as part of a scheme to reduce luxury car tax burden here in BC. Quoted at $4,850, nominally worth $5,495 for four years' protection. That strikes me as punchy pricing. Has anyone in Canada had similar offers and accepted...

Your choice. I haven't got mine yet and I'm not cancelling my order. 1. Any of the car press in the UK (Autocar, AutoExpress, etc.) reporting vast quantities of issues with Macans, multiple returns, etc? 2. This is a forum. It's populated by obsessives, complainers, nerds (charitably...

There's one Papaya in my hometown. And 7.34million ICE Macans and Cayennes. Like any other North American ski resort.

Well I guess I won’t be picking my new one up next week then.

TMI

So that’s where all my vowels went

Extremely jealous since 1: I haven't got my Macan yet (next week, all being well) and 2: we've not done our usual Europe jaunt this year in our big, very diesel-powered Mercedes, a Sprinter-based Carthago motorhome. Next year is Denmark/Norway and then we'll probably be selling the motorhome and...

Replying to my own message, frightfully bad form. Porsche Vancouver Parts department cannot order a supercharger adapter, yet. It's not on their computer. But they weren't surprised I was asking.

I'm waiting for a response from mine (at Vancouver Porsche, so I expect the same answer!). He's always on holiday though, or more charitably maybe he's always on courses. I'm popping in tomorrow to get the Tesla valued as a trade-in.

Used the mobile on my Tesla once in the six years I owned it, at a somewhat remote cabin near Lund in BC before Tesla had installed superchargers on the route. And it was probably unnecessary even for that journey but it smoothed things out a little bit and meant we didn't need to park outside a...

And every modern camera lens you've ever used has almost definitely got a collection of coatings. https://petapixel.com/science-of-lens-coatings/

I'm having a similar problem. I moved from England to Canada on the day that Canadian COVID restrictions were lifted having sold my 911 the day before. My new order Macan 4S never showed up in the app, the Porsche centre is still the old one. I've changed my address and notified the dealer - no...

In the past (back in the UK) I kept a bottle of BMW Gummi-Pflege in my detailing bag for keeping on top of the rubber trim. I haven't sourced any over here yet. It worked a treat at getting the rubber clean and keeping it flexible. Here we go...

I sincerely hope they don’t read the forums. Listen to direct hard factual feedback from actual customers, yes. But design by committee and focus group, no thanks.

For when Mansory is just too tasteful and subtle.

Over in Tesla world, this is well known - don't run apps and monitors etc if you want to avoid unnecessary battery drain. When you're on holiday, just trust that there'll be some battery left, don't keep waking the systems up to check. Avoid vampire drain as much as possible. If you're in your...

Model 3 owner. The eye sensor is a lot less irksome than the old "apply a little torque to the wheel". I rarely engage "FSD" (funny definition of Full, Elon). But when I do, I can take in the scenery, face my passenger etc. I've never looked away long enough for it to trigger. The torque sensor...
