Thanks for your responses.
I have the H9J1035070 software despite the build being in Jan of this year. OPC powerless to do anything about it I think - any updates will be driven by Porsche Germany. OPC has been pretty understanding and supportive though. I guess they're just caught in the...
I'm due to take delivery of a 4S on March 1st that was built in early Jan and arrived at the dealer a couple of weeks ago.
Dealer has today confirmed that despite my build being so close to the PCM 6 update Porsche will not provide an upgrade or patch as 'it has not been offered historically'...
I was able to look at the two styles almost side by side. Minimal difference and apparently no performance benefit so am in agreement - not worth the very high cost. Thx for your comments.
I'm due to lockdown my Cherry Metallic 4S order for January/February delivery tomorrow. I've made the fatal mistake of refreshing my thoughts via the configurator and now can't work out whether the SportDesign Front Apron is justifiable at £2,180 (though the highlight on the SportDesign side...
Having cancelled my 4S order due to the repeated delays in the Spring/Summer I hopped into a used 911 C2S in July and reordered a 22MY 4S a few weeks later and was quoted Feb/March ‘22 delivery from Porsche Bournemouth so I doubt their list is any shorter unless they have a dealer speculative...
With continued uncertainty on a delivery date (8 months and still waiting) and no spare car, plus the risk of eventually taking delivery just a short time before the new model year, I've given up, cancelled my order, and hopped into a used 911 C2 S for the immediate future. Gutted, as the...
Am just starting that process as I promised my Macan to a friend, based on the original end March delivery date, so am currently down to one car which is inconvenient at times...
It seems a bit unfair on the dealer though as it’s out if their control.
It does, hence my whinge. If my kids had a similar complaint I'd be telling them to 'get on and deal with it'. :rolleyes:
I guess colour and spec. may have something to do with the initial delay (I've opted for the Cherry metallic) but sense that the dealer network is powerless to influence...
Have just been notified by my dealer that my 4S, originally ordered in early November for March delivery, delayed to May, then promised for mid June, has now had its build slot pushed back to mid June which I guess means early July delivery at the best.
'Worldwide chip shortage' being blamed...
Thanks RG. My thoughts echo yours but I'm just at order lockdown stage for a Jun 1 build (6 months since initial order!!) so, as ever, was questioning it. I have the two tone chalk/beige interior so don't think it will be claustrophobic and definitely prefer the scalloped design and continuity...
I had a BMW 6 Series before my Macan and the rear view camera lens was always clean because it was concealed behind a revolving BMW badge. Really neat design that it’s disappointing Porsche and others haven’t adopted.
The Macan lens is above the rear number plate and gets caked in grime at...
Thanks for the pictures. Really useful. Gorgeous car. And I’m very envious. Have just been told that my dealer has no build allocation for January and barely any for February so my build is now likely to be April for May delivery. I ordered at the beginning of November. ?
How could you not get compliments - that looks lovely Thomas.
Is the interior OK with the solid roof? Looks it from the outside. The windows seem to let plenty of light in.
Gets my vote too and I’m on a ‘relative’ budget trying to keep a 4S to £100k.
The difference in manoeuvrability is really noticeable at a variety of speeds but especially low speed speed and more so I think than PTV (which I have on my Macan and would attribute to preventing an issue in really...
