That was a direct extract from his email. Of course its possible he hasn't seen the email you mentioned but given that was Monday and its now Thursday it seems unlikely. Hopefully just another one for the forum rumour mill or its not impacting on Macans especially
In fact I’m over there tomorrow for 1st service on 911 and new tyres (Michelin!!) for the Macan

Do you want me to triple check for you??
never hurts to get info from other sources. That would be great, thanks.

The SE I spoke to had no reason to lie, in fact quite the opposite as I was just about to place my order. I asked him if delivery was still March which is what he had told me a couple of weeks ago, he told me their group policy was honesty with the customer which is when he told me about the email. He stated the Macan was definitely affected.
When I asked about delivery on a GTS, he just laughed!

Am wondering if delivery is likely to be quicker on a 2.0 compared to an S, as it was back in 2015/16. Might explain why many OPC Gen III Macan showroom cars/demos are the 2.0.

Quick question, are folding wing mirrors standard on the S?, I can’t find the info anywhere and can’t find them as an option either!

Really sorry to hear that, I know you were meant to get one of the first cars. Any reasons given this time?
