Sounds like our local dealership is doing better than they used to too!

Macan base configured out at $80,680 for all the junk I wanted.
The Macan Turbo was $107,840.
The Cayenne Turbo S was $187,940.
Looking like driving older used is still in my future.

I'm guessing you aren't getting the 21in wheels with body painted centers so the Macan will match your Carrera.

The Macan was originally rated at 5400 lbs towing capacity and several tow their race cars on open trailers with a Macan S saying it does great with no issues. Only recently has Porsche lowered the towing rating on the Macan and people think it is due to some change in the USA standards and is still higher ROW.

When I got the new X3 there wasn't one configured like I wanted at a dealership. BUT there was one on the boat coming over so only had to wait a week. It was exciting and agonizing at the same time.

It is silly some of the options Porsche has. I the custom color paint for 6 grand or the huge wheels and custom painted. I am guessing Porsche knows more about what sells than I do. Just a guess, and I do realize they sell cars for a living but they likely don't know squat about aerial mapping!

In the end it is a car my wife will drive on a daily basis. We did spring the park assist surround view for $1,190. It has cameras all around and the radar. My wife is like many women and hates to back up. Now she can see what is back there.
