Hi all,

Been lurking around these pages since I got my Macan SD back in 2015 and decided, as I’ve just ordered Macan 2 it was time to officially join the clan.
I took retirement back in 2015 and the SD (my first Porsche) was my gift to me and I have absolutely loved it.
The time was right to think about replacing the SD and after test driving a Cayenne, although a great car, I decided the Macan was more suitable for my needs so a new S is now on order. I have had a deposit down since July so once committed was able to attain a Feb build date with a March delivery.
I like quite a few of the options so even though some may find it over specced it’s ideal for me. This time I’ve plumped for the agate/pebble interior as I wanted a change from black, no kids or dogs so should be able to look after it.
Can’t wait to get the new model and enjoy the extra 100bhp that comes with the petrol engine.
The Porsche specification is PKEJLPB7.

Nice spec! You'll love the Agate/Pebble interior, it adds a real sense of occasion to getting in to the car. After just over a year's use, mine has no marks on it, but I use Dr Leather wipes every few weeks to get the slight blue marks from jeans off the seat bolsters. Talking of seats, why didn't you go for the 18-way option? They really hug you.

Great spec.. I agree about the Agate/Pebble interior, it still feels very special to me. Still no marks on mine either although I am fairly careful :D :D

Nice spec, agate and pebble is great done 29k miles in mine now, just have to keep on top of it specifically the drivers seat with a regular clean with leather wipes. For mine I also chose pebble seat belts and agate leather door and dash trim a bit more cost but looks really good 😊

Thanks for the reassurance on the interior colour, feel a bit more relaxed now😉 I went for agate seat belts.


I tried the 18 way seats in one of the demonstrators but didn’t find them as comfortable as the 14 way.....also my wife is so slim she didn’t even feel the bolsters closing in on her and was adamant they weren’t moving!

I also have the 14 way, just found the 18 way to uncomfortable getting in/out. Great for a lower vehicle but a pain on SUV's

I have also spec'd the agate/pebble interior and was leaning towards the blue until the boss imposed her will and it's now a very unadventurous silver

Well my Feb build & delivery March date due “to delays” has now been confirmed as:

Exit Leipzig 05/04
Enter Grimsby 19/04

No mention from OPC re potential tariffs.

Hi David,
Did OPC mention anything re tariffs to you....I’ve seen that several people on the forum have been asked to sign waivers accepting any increases?
