Hi all,
Not noticed this on any car before, but my Macan has come with a bronze/gold tint windscreen. It is not too in your face and has different shades in different light. It is quite subtle but does look very nice.
Is this common on the Macan/Porsche in general?
Some pics, but it is difficult to capture.

It's actually got a small crack in it and my OPC is replacing it for the exact same spec, hence why I thought it was OEM.

That’s the heat insulating glass option - I have it on my car. If it’s getting replaced make sure you’re getting similar spec replacement as it was an extra cost factory option
The wider obscuration band by the rear view mirror area is where you can mount gps equipment as there is no heat reflective coating to block signals

Ah my bad, mine is a 2017 pre-facelift car with the noise and heat insulating glass option. Whilst the large obscuration band is the same the tint on mine is actually more silver/blue in colour.
I was thinking that they just changed the colour of the tint for the facelift cars

Thanks for the advice. They had initially ordered the incorrect windscreen (twice now), but I demanded the exact spec, so they have now ordered direct from Germania. Booked in for replacement at the end of the month (looking forward to a surprise courtesy car as per usual). They are also fitting new door handles under warranty.keelolo wrote: ↑Thu Apr 15, 2021 11:17 pm That’s the heat insulating glass option - I have it on my car.

Nice spot!
The Jazz is the neighbours car and he hasn't driven it in over a year (except for a very small weekly cycle just round the block on bin day).
