Car looks great in that shade of blue. Debadged too. My gen 2 doesn't have full size USB ports either (known as Type A) - only USB-C which meant I had to get a lead with USB-C plugs at both ends to charge my phone. The world of tech is moving to USB-C now.

When I collected my first Macan in 2014 I placed an order for my second Macan before leaving the dealership as in those days the wait time was 12 months and residuals very good. Turned out to be a good move as I only lost £200 in 12 months. I understand from my dealer that quite a few customers are leaving deposits for the EV Macan when they pick up their cars but my suspicion is that the initial EV model will be very expensive.

Is it still possible to download music to the PCM like the old jukebox- if so how ? Please don’t anyone tell me to RTFM as I don’t have a manual and the Good To Know app is very limited.

No, it hasn't been possible since Gen 2. At least Gen 2 cars have an SD connection in the central storage compartment. I'm not sure Gen 3 cars even have that.
