Re: Lack of Colours

I've just been on the config to spec a Carrera T and the colours available have been reduced massively. No racing yellow, shark blue, Ruby, python etc etc. Same for the GTS including no Aventurine green which is now a £3234 option on the Panamera. Used to be just a standard metallic at around £1000...

Re: Order placed

Just been down to Portsmouth to place an order for a new GTS and was very surprised to get a June 24 build slot! With some time before lockdown, any specification comments/suggestions would be gratefully received: https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PRX3IDX2 Thanks Nice spec. I’d suggest ...

Re: Test drive booked

Before we bought, OPC advised Gen3 doesn't have this feature. Couldn't get it to work in Gen3 base and S loan cars recently. Over a week in each car.

Have those prices been confirmed?
On the configurator, Macan 4 is £69,800 (380 miles), and the Turbo £95,000 (367 miles).

Re: Macan EV Official Launch Date!

I wonder what we will learn at 11:30 this morning.

Details of pricing, availability, model specifications and performance data???

Or just some pretty pictures and a stream of marketing blurb?? 🤔

A range of 310 miles is being quoted, which means maybe 230 on a cold day? Dropping to about 185 if you only have time to charge to 80%. Not great really.

Re: Macan EV Official Launch Date!

It will be interesting to see whether a full range of models will be available from day one, or whether some will be unavailable until subsequent launches.

Re: Macan EV

https://www.topgear.com/car-news/electric/forthcoming-all-electric-porsche-macan-will-get-over-310-miles-range Improvements in range seems glacial in comparison to advancements in other technologies. I find the 310 mile range being quoted for the Macan EV disappointing, when considering cross count...
