Yes, these are for the first delivery cars.
A 2.0L Macan with a predefined set of options isn't of interest to me so I'll be waiting for the additional engines and custom specifications.

I've got another call with the OPC on Tuesday. He's seeing if some of these first batch can have minor alterations. The Design pack works for me, just want to see if I can change the wheels and omit the gangster glass
Looking at ordering 2019 model Macan http://www.porsche-code.com/PKYUKIB8
I'll be keeping my money until they see fit to allow me to buy a car with the spec I require.
And if it takes 2 years or more so be it. I'm not a devotee of any brand that I will fall over myself to buy their product.

Yes WLTP, effective from 1 Sept 2018 registrations, has a lot to answer for this 'options pack' "solution". Some makes that have few optional extras. like Mazda, have benefited and lead times are minimal. While others like Porsche have suffered as every combination of options has to be tested and WLTP certified for each make, model, engine and derivative.

This would clearly justify the idea of creating a limited number of ‘base’ models then adding suitable options at OPCs. Working to the letter of the legislation in true automotive fashion.SAC1 wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 6:56 pmYes WLTP, effective from 1 Sept 2018 registrations, has a lot to answer for this 'options pack' "solution".

Not quite right it has Air which includes PASMdavetronic wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 4:01 pm Oh dear, I really hope I am misunderstanding something or that this list is incorrect.
What a rubbish set of configurations this seems to be! When buying a Porsche I would not expect to have to compromise so much.
No Pano roof on the Sport? (I was always told this was the most desired accessory!)
Compulsory black roof rails?
No heated steering wheel on Design?
No PASM on Premium but it has compulsory 21" wheels?
Surround view on Premium only?
18 Way seats only on Sport?
Spyder wheels only on Premium?
No choice of wheels on Sport?
And only the 2.0l engine until March?
I though the Porsche philosophy was that customers carefully put together their own spec, unlike my wife’s previous far east SUV that came with just about everything included in the basic price!
Porsche have had my £3k since January, but if this is the only way to get the car I want unfortunately it may be time to bail out, find another car, then perhaps start again in 6 month’s time!

I would suggest given your proposed usage to go with the Classic option, there is very little need for anything other than basic for what will be a Town Car.
BTW
Do not expect good economy from a 2.0 Macan, it still has 2 tonnes of car to haul around.

I think you mean 'Porsche Entry & Drive', rather than 'Comfort Access', which is something else.davetronic wrote: ↑Sun Aug 26, 2018 4:58 pm Only item I would not go for is Comfort Access. Apart from all the security scares, I find it a pain finding somewhere in the car for a bunch of keys!
