Even if I end up not cancelling and I do some time in a galaxy far far away actually collect my Macan I will be telling the dealer principal exactly what I think of his dealership.
I don't think they care. Your cancelled order will just go to the next person in line on their waiting list.
Yes, I’m aware of that, but it will make me feel better, especially when I copy in Porsche GB. :D

Elements of this car will disappoint, but as an entire package its really rather good. After 4 years of ownership I never really bonded with my last car, but this already feel much more like its “my car”, if that makes sense. For those thinking of buying one, if you can stand the wait and the appalling communication from Porsche, you’ll be pleased you did.
Thanks, Omni, for the insight - v. helpful, esp. re. ACC, 20” wheels, panel fit & stereo.

Wish you many happy miles motoring.
Macan S arrived May’22.

The OPC does care as a poor survey after you buy creates a ticket and then you get a call from a sales manager who doesn’t care about you at all but will say lots of nice words and promise something to you to say sorry. My experience is then you have the same situation but you have a sales manager not calling you instead of an SE….

If you cancel, perhaps offer the slot to me or other forum members?

I wouldn't say that, they want repeat custom. I tried to cancel my GTS order when I was fed up with the lack of comms, they gave me £600 discount and a promise they wouldn't drop the ball again which so far they haven't.

I’ve been on the list for a steel white faced Daytona since 2019, so I’m expecting that before the Macan!😂

I’m not sure that you can. If you cancel your order, I think it’s up to your OPC as to who gets your place in the queue. 🤔

Interestingly this video shows exactly the same panel gap issue, especially one side of the bonnet to the other.
