  1. Latest OutofSpec Dave review - not good

    And I think this comment is exactly why people are struggling with your review. A 52 is a failing score.... "Totally keeping it / love it" is a passing with flying colors whole hearted endorsement. I didn't watch your whole video so maybe it was a little tongue and cheek with the negative...
  2. Received my 4S this week!

    I agree….current trend is to just black out all trim, but this combo looks nice
  3. Macan EV extended warranty recommended? Buy it now or after a couple of years?

    Get a quote from your dealer for the extended warranty, put that same money in a relatively stable investment and use it as your own personal extended warranty fund as needed in the future. Of course, all insurance is a "bad deal" until you need it, but it's all a numbers game. The...
  4. Serious Design Flaw - No easy access to vehicle if 12v battery is very low

    Am I reading this guidance correctly that all one needs to do is pull the little protective cover on the front of the vehicle which will allow you to jump the 12v….problem solved?
  5. Expected depreciation?

    100%.... Maybe I'm just an old timer at this point, but the desire for constant vehicle upgrades is the biggest issue. I've never owned a car less than 5 years and I'm currently moving from a 2007 e-class to a Macan 4S. Bad depreciation is built into a lease... I don't really buy the...
  6. Where is this Porsche dealer premium experience that I keep hearing about?

    I totally agree with you on this. To me, the premium service I most appreciate is after the sales process. Not sitting in a gross waiting room with a keurig machine and 10 other people. Getting a free loaner when in for normal service appointments is also huge to me. The mercedes dealer near...
  7. Poll: How many actual Macan Electric’s have you seen in the wild?

    Sure seems to me like an availability issue. At least in the Seattle area, there seems to be very limited inventory at the main porsche dealers. Not everyone wants to go through a special order process... especially less hard core Porsche fans that just want a great EV and can turn to Tesla or...
  8. My new Ice Grey Turbo Macan EV

    Looks great! I love the choice on the blue seatbelts. Definitely add some unique pop.
  9. For those of you with Rear Wheel steering... happy with it?

    Thank you for the visual aid! It actually does help to get a feel for how the steering works.
  10. Edmunds Takes Macan 4 EV to Their Test Track

    Never read the comments in a youtube video on an EV car review.... and especially a luxury EV. You'll get the bots that talk about the death of EVs in general and then more comment about how rediculous the price is, steep depreciation, and then the folks mocking that they will buy it used in a...
  11. Buying vs leasing (and possibly buying then): my numbers

    I'm right there with you.... I've just got a couple more weeks to make a decision. I've never been a fan of leasing and never aim to hold any vehicle for just a couple years so a steep depreciation doesn't bother me much. However, the 7.5K EV credit is the only thing I'm trying to understand...
  12. Buying vs leasing (and possibly buying then): my numbers

    Awesome... thank you. As a general question, would I expect that Porsche has a standard % residual value schedule by term (for any given model/options included) and it's only adjusted based on the lease mileage assumption? In other words, am I only negotiating/evaluating the lease rent charge...
  13. Buying vs leasing (and possibly buying then): my numbers

    Question on leasing as I've never leased before. I've gotten quotes from Porsche on various lease options (one pay, regular lease, etc.) I've asked for what the residual value value to purchase would be at the end of each lease option, but have yet to get that from them. I'm assuming in an...
  14. My Macan EV went from a full stop to full acceleration and wouldn't respond to the brake causing an accident.

    Who was driving when the accident occurred? Are these two separate incidents (one in your subject line, one in the body of your post?) Your son was driving at 60 mph (presumably on the freeway), completely lost all power only to return by flooring the accelerator, and you didn’t think to not...
  15. Roof Rack / Rails on Macan EV

    Who puts cross bars on their vehicle for aesthetic appeal? Its functional. You put them on when needed and then take them off.
  16. Macan EV Turbo Ice Gray Delivered and WOW 🤩

    They are brothers from another mother
  17. Macan EV Road Trip by Out of Spec Dave - Part 1

    I could have sworn at some point I saw Porsche documentation that indicated it supported 48 amp charging. However, I just went to Porsche USA and the official website does indicate 40 amp charging. Not sure if it ever changed, but somewhere along the long 48 amp charging seemed to be an...
  18. My biggest disappointment: The Sun Visor

    As crazy as it sounds, no matter how awesome this car is (when I finally get it), this visor issue is the one thing my wife will definitely not stop talking about. It's a huge pet peeve of hers and one of the greatest things she loves about our MB GLS. I can understand not equipping with a...
  19. First service, $2,500????

    If you actually plan to use the dealer for service, then there probably is some value to them (or at least one better confirm they are getting a discount off the future value of each service). The problem is in the human factor after you’ve bought the service plan…. Moving out of the area...
  20. From Taycan 4s CT to Macan Turbo Volcano Grey Metallic with XPEL Stealth PPF

    I am not one that typically loves the satin finish PPF, but man this looks awesome. I love how the gloss black trim and side blades really pop.
