Congratulations on getting your Macan. Looks great - black is a fantastic colour when clean and detailed.
(I would say that as I have a black one on order 😁).
The spec on your car is great. Wish you many miles of fun and safe motoring.
I’m often in Hampshire, so if I actually manage to get my Macan delivered ! and see yours, certainly will give you a flash. Registration 1 **.
All the best.
Macan S arrived May’22.

Welcome.

Turbo is the best.

Black is a lot of effort to keep looking good.

Do have a look under the lid in the boot for a spare wheel, they do not come as standard.

At least you have the single best option ……… heated steering wheel

Welcome to the forum and enjoy your new car. The gloss black handles and side skirts puzzle me on a black car but, hey, you didn't pay for them.

If it were me, my first action would be to discover how to turn Lane Keeping Assist off.

The gloss black handles and side skirts were standard on the Turbo then. But the SD mirrors, turbo wheels, gloss grille and gloss diffuser make me think it also has the full Sport Design pack, which IIRC was about a £5k option.

Yes, LKA off, auto stop off, suspension lowered and second step PASM engaged! Oh, and sports exhaust on except on motorway.
