Good Morning,

I ordered a Gen 2 S back in April/May and was waiting for allocations. Then when Gen3 was announced, changed to Gen3 and got one of the first build slots at Teesside.
Arrived late last week but then went for ceramic coating first.

Collected yesterday after work so only had a short drive home so far.
Not someone who puts a huge spec on my car (previous Macan SD was the same).
So spec is Black window trims, Rear section painted, Black model designation, Privacy Glass, Driver memory.
I did spec turbo alloys on the gen2 but thought the standard ones on the Gen3 looked great, and I was right (for my personal preference).

The 2.9 V6 is so smooth, coming from the 3.0 Diesel it's amazing. Very surprised how quick it picks up as well and the standard exhaust is more than enough I think but I might look to add the Chrome tips later on :?:

So here is my Macan S, relatively basic spec compared to some but I love it! :D

Got to say the guys at Porsche Teesside have been fantastic, since purchasing my first ever Porsche and this one it's been faultless from them.

Admiral do have it on line now, I checked yesterday. They currently seem to be the only ones who have.

Your car looks great, and I wouldn’t worry to much about Spec as you at least have a car, which a lot of us are still sadly lacking 🥺

Martin, can you have a look in the centre console and check if it had an SD and SIM card slot or just 2 USB-C’s?

Thanks

Wife has the car at the moment but I remember seeing the slots in the armrest.
Also just checked manual and it states an SD card reader, Sim card reader and 2 USB-C's.

I'll confirm once I have the car back.

Thanks. Yep, I checked the manual too but others have posted pictures clearly showing them missing. Maybe they are non uk spec though.

Spec is what works for you and is all that matters.

Interested in what it has by was of USB/SD connectivity.
