2016 Macan prices

Did I get it wrong? Maybe the figure I heard was €1 billion in 6 months then. Either way, no rush to increase prices. I hope!

Worldwide Macan Sales 2015

Interesting. You can argue that one both ways... We are a small % of the global market, so it doesn't matter if sales drop. Or... We are a small % of the global market so it doesn't matter if they make a bit less profit on each car. Only time will tell!

2016 Macan prices

Porsche did make €1 billion profit last year - they can probably sit it out a bit and see what happens. They will still make a profit on every car, just less than before.

Ads on this forum....

I got those ads a few days ago and no, I wasn't looking at anything like that before! I thought they must be sponsored - I did wonder why I was seeing BMW ads a few days ago as well.

Heat and noise insulating glass

Thanks to all, esp. Scott. Very useful to hear from the voice of experience with a side by side comparison. Currently I seem to get my car in a space in the car park at work where it sits in the sun from about 1pm - 5pm and is like an oven when I leave work. I have a convertible at the moment so put...

Tyre pressures

I check them at whatever the ambient temperature is. That may mean putting in extra air as you come into winter. The tyres will run at an overall lower temperature in colder weather so some extra air is probably needed. Checking at 20 degrees won't take account of the potential 30-40 degrees change ...

Heat and noise insulating glass

Thanks Macfresh - a useful link. And jonmacan - the fact that you aren't bothering with the ventilated seats suggests they are perhaps not worth it. I am leaning towards the insulating glass and "ordinary" heated 18 way seats.

Heat and noise insulating glass

Almost there with the spec, but what about this one? I asked a while ago about ventilated seats and both Luke & AJ mentioned this option. They said the care never gets too hot with it. My SE however told me that they had never had a customer spec it and none of their demonstrators have it so he didn...
