Thanks for you input. But each to their own, having driven it I’m happy with the ride. Coming from a scirocco R with ACC I’m happy. I’ve also driven with and without honestly didn’t feel the difference.

+1. I am on my third Macan and fifth Porsche and never had PASM. I have driven numerous courtesy/demo Porsche cars with PASM and never felt the need to spec PASM. It’s also noteworthy that many of the demo cars at Porsche dealerships also do not have PASM. When the new facelift Macan was launched the vast majority of cars supplied to dealerships by Porsche did not have PASM fitted. You will be happy with the ride.
Thanks for the vote of confidence. When people say that you HAVE to have PASM, it goes put a slither of doubt in your mind!
For sure do the window surrounds, the chrome looks dire on that car with everything else black. I'm guessing whoever specced the car made a mistake and forgot to spec the black trims as chrome looks totally out of place.
As regards PASM, I haven't driven a car on 21s without PASM so can't comment but can tell you my car has 21 and PASM and I always drive in sport mode as comfort is too soft for me.
I have the new S with same 21 wheels. I do have PASM as a friend with BMW suggested it improves the ride. If I am honest I struggle to notice the difference between comfort, sport and sport plus settings ... although I do leave it in comfort most of the time. I don't think u will have a problem without PASM... it's nice to have but not a must have.

Morning all - I’ve agreed to buy the OPC demo at Leicester and picking it up on 1st June.
Decent spec, just missing PASM which after driving I’m not that bothered about. IMG_0863.jpg
Only thing that I am getting sorted is the chrome surround of the windows. You do wonder who specs these things when they’re ordered. For another £160 you’d of thought that’d have it all gloss black as everything else is.
Other spec of note. Sports Exhaust, full leather, 14 way seats, heated seats & steering wheel, tinted rear lights, vario steering, pano roof, 21 inch spyders, PDLS lights.
On holiday now and can’t wait for it to end as picking car up when hone..
Cheers all [emoji1303]
Welcome to our friendly forum.
Congrats on the new Macan S. Looks great!
Are the tailpipes black? (I can only see a photo of the car from the front in your post.)
Cheers,
Simon

Excellent! My Macan (Rhodium Silver) also had black window trim and black sport exhaust tips, along with 21” gloss black Sport Classic wheels.

Looks good except for the chrome trim, with the black door handle option chosen whoever specced it screwed up, good move getting them covered. Enjoy
