  1. My Porsche App in CarPlay

    Works on 992 and new Cayennes too. Weird that it wouldn’t work on Macan EV… perhaps it has something to do with its Android-based OS? Somewhat related, does EV routing in Apple Maps in Carplay work in the Macan EV like it does in the Taycan? (where Apple maps syncs with the vehicleā€˜s...
  2. Switch from eTron GT / Taycan

    My Macan Turbo is due to arrive in late April, and I will be swapping my current Taycan GTS for it. I hope I don’t regret it too. Based on my test drive of a Macan Turbo with 22ā€œ wheels, it does seem to ride better than my Taycan GTS, but it did crash a bit on larger bumps and potholes...
  3. Here's my Turbo build. 2 weeks in the making šŸ˜‚

    I hope not. Because I'm sure not going to pay $171k + taxes on a Macan. I'd just keep my current Taycan if that ended up being the case.
  4. Here's my Turbo build. 2 weeks in the making šŸ˜‚

    No more waffling between options or agonizing over spec choices. Build is now frozen (blue)
  5. Both manual charge flaps not opening - Macan4

    Sorry about your issues OP. Hope it gets sorted for good and you don't really end up selling your car. And here I was thinking I'm taking a big risk by spec'ing the power-operated charge doors option, but I guess it seems both the manual and power versions are trash designs. So I actually...
  6. Should I do it? Taycan 4S Cross Turismo > Macan 4S EV

    If your Taycan has been frustrating, then I say by all means do it and get the Macan. I'll also soon be making the switch (Taycan to Macan) and my Taycan GTS wasn't even a frustrating ownership experience like yours was. It's been a fantastic car so far and I'm confident the Macan will fare as...
  7. Here's my Turbo build. 2 weeks in the making šŸ˜‚

    Yes, it’s because of the more exposed brakes of the sport wheels that I checked the gloss black caliper option. The Turbo has red calipers as standard, and I didn’t want that kind of color contrast against the frozen blue exterior.
  8. Here's my Turbo build. 2 weeks in the making šŸ˜‚

    Final Answer. Order is in with build completion date of 3/23, freeze date imminent. http://www.porsche-code.com/PS4E21N2 Maybe I get it late April…
  9. All Weather Floor Mats vs Weathertech

    btdt with oem, weathertech, 3d, etc... but my favorite and what’s currently on all my cars are Tuxmat. Their mats have the most coverage and are the best looking (in my opinion). I don’t have my Macan yet, but I have emailed Tuxmat and they said don’t have one for the Macan EV yet but are...
  10. charging telephone compartment : the new black hole

    Was checking this out on my test drive and I like the location and the fact that it’s cooled. It’s certainly a lot better than the Taycan’s awkward location and clip.
  11. Interior Door Handle Illumination?

    I think this may be why I’ll switch my build from having black accents to either neodyme or silvershade instead. The latter likely being more reflective of the ambient lighting, improving visibility at night.
  12. Placed your Macan EV order? Post your configuration! šŸ™‹šŸ»‍ā™‚ļø

    Awesome build and color! I was also considering PTS but was bummed that Bahama Yellow (which is more orange than yellow to me) was not available as a PTS option on the Macan, so I took a long look at Gulf Orange and scoured the internet for pics, but chickened-out in the end. My ideal build...
  13. MACAN (& others) Battery Supply Threat? - CATL, World’s Largest EV Battery Maker Blacklisted In USA [ADMIN WARNING: NO POLITICS]

    There is at least one. Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t the Lotus Eletre made in Wuhan, China?
  14. Loaded 4S or lean Turbo?

    lol, that was pretty much my logic, but never cared to admit. but then you'll still have remorse when the Turbo S or Turbo GT comes out :)
  15. Car color wrong in PCM and app

    I get that from time to time, usually when there's an app update, and my car image is either wrong or disappears entirely, on both Taycan and 992. Always sorted itself out after a few days. On this recent Porsche app update when they added control center icon for iOS, my red car turned grey...
  16. XPEL Stealth PPF on Aventurine Green Macan Turbo EV Electric šŸ˜

    looks fantastic! almost has that bare metal look - kinda like a delorean or cybertruck, but not fugly :)
  17. Serious Design Flaw - No easy access to vehicle if 12v battery is very low

    iirc, this was in issue with the early Taycan until a software update allowed the HV battery to charge the 12V battery while parked as needed. Wishful thinking that a software update is all that is needed to prevent 12v discharge on the Macans? I've left my '23 Taycan gts parked for nearly 3...
  18. Serious Design Flaw - No easy access to vehicle if 12v battery is very low

    What kind of 12V battery is in the Macan electric? I suppose it can vary by market like how 992 were equipped with either AGM or LiPo batteries depending on market/options at some point. 2.5 weeks is awfully short-lived for an AGM battery, so must be LiPo installed in your car?\ Either way...
  19. Wheel Center Bore (CB)

    It's 71.5mm, just like its PPE cousins, the Audi Q6/SQ6 etron
  20. Placed your Macan EV order? Post your configuration! šŸ™‹šŸ»‍ā™‚ļø

    Placed order today. Was given the option to wait for the first 2026, but will likely just get 2025, no real changes expected for 2026…. still have time to waffle between :) https://porsche-code.com/PSN5HVX2
