Collected my Macan S last week from Stockport. So far I LOVE it and she’s a joy to drive and very comfortable. Got very lucky my build was locked in before the 21” GT Design wheels were discontinued on the Base and S. Currently in the engine break-in period so being gentle with the throttle, while occasionally varying throttle up to 4000RPM for optimum break-in. The ‘growl’ the engine makes puts a huge smile on my face! I achieved 31mpg (30.8 to be exact) on the M1 which may slightly improve following engine break-in. The 14-way seats are extremely comfortable too and I love the extended Bordeaux red interior - looks way better in person.
During engine break-in, is it worth switching off the auto start/stop since it’s recommended we “avoid frequent starts”?
The beast has arrived!

Honestly at the moment, no complaints though I haven’t heard the standard speakers. Base is amazing and sound quality is crisp. I play music via Apple CarPlay and have Apple Music subscription so I’m playing music at its highest quality (Dolby Atmos enabled).PorscheMack wrote: ↑Sun Jan 23, 2022 6:23 pmNice.

I like what you have done to the front end. Is it a GTS?

I selected the “Exterior trim package painted in exterior colour with gloss black” option so the front apron is finished in high gloss black.Bluesnose1812 wrote: ↑Sun Jan 23, 2022 6:32 pm I like what you have done to the front end. Is it a GTS?
