One last comment - some of the hardest vehicles to obtain collision repair parts for are fairly new vehicles that are still currently in production. Inventory goes to production of new vehicles - collision repair is a secondary concern.

Not sure I'd call that minor damage - the fender ("wing") is displaced upward meaning that whatever it is fastened to is damaged / displaced. The surface appearance in damage like this rarely declares the totality of the damage. If the fender tagged the hood then that will also need paint...

The first factory scheduled service is at 2 years and then every 2 years after that - not 1 year. So did you really get anything extra regarding service??

1. A 2024/2025 CPO vehicle may have anywhere from a few hundred miles up to 10s of thousands of miles and everything in between. CPO means Certifed Pre-Owned - so the vehicle will have to pass certain conditions regarding condition, maintenance, etc to earn that designation. They are...

Still looks like a toaster.

You really need to sit in them to decide. As noted previously - unless you are "trim" you may find the 18 way seats constricting and actually uncomfortable. There is absolutely nothing wrong with the 14 way seats - if I had to order a seat without ever sitting in them I would get the 14 way...

My one piece of advice is to take all of the charging speed and range marketing with a grain of salt. This is not only for the Macan but ANY EV. I live in a climate where the summer temps easily hit 100 F and the winter temps (straight temp, not wind chill) typically hit 10-15 below F. At the...

What else do you have in your pocket - that thing looks beat!

Good for you - MANY things can be done directly by the owner. You not only save money but you'll gain a new appreciation for your vehicle and a true sense of accomplishment. If you have any doubts / questions do a Google search - you can find instruction or a video for a tremendous number of...

Seriously - why use a dealer to install? Do it yourself. Use masking tape to "outline" area of existing badge. Remove remaining parts of old badge - I like to use monofilament fishing line to "saw through" the old tape. Remove tape residue with some heat (hair dryer), carefully picking off...

Silly option. Save your money.

Another advocate for PPF plus ceramic coating here. Full front PPF for sure (which is generally considered hood, front fenders, front bumper cover, mirror caps) with rocker panels and some protection on rear quarters is a minimum I'd consider. And absolutely ceramic coat it also. Ceramic...

Don't loop in sales - DO loop in management. You need the decision makers involved.

One thing a Polestar will never do - and that's drive like a Porsche.

Have you driven a Macan? It appears from your two recent threads that you are really focused on costs of the "experience" and less on the experience. Having owned both there is one thing I can say for certain - a BMW will never drive like a Porsche. I am now on my second Macan (first was ICE...

The comfort vs. sport seats issue is not so much based on height but more on weight - the primary difference between the seats is how "aggressive" the side bolsters are. If you gravitate to the heavier side you might find the sport seats uncomfortable because rather than fitting "within" the...

Fill your tank when it's half empty.........

Fun video - racing a modern SUV against an iconic Porsche benchmark and showing the potential of new technology. Brilliant! I have no need to read anything deeper into it than that.

I've owned an ICE Macan and currently own a Macan 4 EV. I've also owned 2 Mercedes GLKs and a Mercedes GLC. One thing the Mercedes will NEVER compel you to say is "Wow, this drives just like a Porsche". For additional perspective I've also owned a 718 Cayman, a 992.1 911, and currently am...

Very nice - thank you. If people just want the "bottom line" it's this: Attach the adapter first to the charger cable end then plug everything into the vehicle.
