Hello all, new member here.
I am in the market for a mid sized premium SUV and the Macan S is top of the short list others are X3 M40i and possibly a GLC AMG 43. This would be my first Porsche and a cash purchase, I haven't driven a Macan yet as the dealership don't have a S to test, I will be taking out a 2.0 later this week.
Whilst the Macan will be more expensive speced to the same level (I can get a 8k discount on the X3) I feel the cost over three years will be similar with the Macan due to its better residuals.
I am worried about placing a order and then incurring the proposed 10% Brexit charge. If I order for delivery in say August can I cancel and get my deposit back if this happens ?
Also from a resale point of view would it be better to wait till the new reg in September ?
Thanks
Tal

I am sure you would have no problems getting your deposit back - you would not be alone in cancelling.
This is also my first Porsche and if you don't know already I can tell you that this buying experience is different from any other car you've bought (and not in a good way). You will spend countless hours on the configurator but It will be easier for you if you have an experienced sales executive. You will end up paying for many 'extras' and good advice will help you choose wisely - getting it right without choosing every extra there is not easy.
Thanks for the reply .. have you a S on order ?

I paid my deposit on 28th Dec and changed my spec several times resulting in my delivery date being pushed back.T4LGO wrote: ↑Sun Mar 03, 2019 8:51 pm Thanks for the reply .. have you a S on order ?

There's three types of extra, cosmetic, comfort and performance. The cosmetic e.g. colour is in the eye of the beholder, comfort is a feature which you may choose to pay for or not e.g. seats, performance is crucial e.g. wheels and suspension . . . . . . but although I call it crucial it's not absolutely clear what is crucial or not.
Here is my spec which (after many changes) is the best I can do (for me) but I am not 100% confident it is 100% perfect.

Welcome.
Place your deposit it is fully refundable right up to you locking down your spec c6 weeks before the build.
You can even go on the freebie Silverstone PEC 1/2 day session and that will not effect getting your full deposit back.
Do read up on the PEC and on the What To Specify thread in the Orders section.
Be warned, buying a Porsche is nit for the faint hearted, they are addictive.
BTW.
Drive one and you will discount any other marque.

No, you just get leather in all the seat centres.
