I never found anything on the PCM.

Thank God I got the diesel, still drinks like George Best!

Ordered last August, but I did specify delivery for 1st April, so it's not that late.

Midnight blue
Agate grey leather
Air
Memory heated seats
Panoramic roof
Electric towbar
Dab radio
Pcm
Bluetooth - this really should be included in pcm. Real ripoff that Porsche charge extra for it.

Well specced, but I will keep it for at least 4 years, so depreciation is not really an issue for me.

Sounds good, never seen a Blue on in the flesh. Like the sound of the Grey interior so it brightens things up.

My black leather interior is a bit boring. Wish I'd had the balls to go for a two-tone line black/brown.

Coloured interior lighting like on Range Rovers and my mum's Mini would have lifted it a bit. I spec'd the comfort lighting package, doesn't seem to offer much :/

Interesting. I've specced the comfort lighting too. I was hoping it would be similar to my wife's Merc, but now not so hopeful.

Agate grey is not that light. More like anthracite. I've got light beige in my x5, and it is showing the wer after 4 years and 50k miles, particularly on the driver side bolstrs, so thought I would go for something a bit darker.

This is the interior of my car, wasnt cheap though!

So what is a comfort lighting pack? I too have spec'd it and also thought it was to do with interior lighting...is it just lighting on the outside by the wing mirrors?

Does look nice though smile

Think Comfort lighting is basically some bulbs in the foot-wells and on the exterior mirrors and a dimmable 'horseshoe light'. Coloured lighting would have made it much cooler.

To be honest once I have taken off the discount all that plus a hell of a lot more came for free so not that bad in the end.

Yes ive read up on the comfort lighting again to refresh my memory (after 6 months!). So we pay all that extra for lighting which comes as standard in many mass production cars! They certainly know how to drain your pockets!

Yeh I couldnt agree more, coloured lighting as in the RR Sport would have been a nice touch.

Thank you, I havnt seen it in the flesh yet....im worried about the Carbon tbh.

What discount did you get? I have an appointment tomorrow for a trade in price on my X5 - would be very useful to know what you got.

Ah the discount was for other things, nothing to do with buying the car. From what I can tell they pucker up tighter than a camel in a sand storm when you ask for discount.

I didnt even get a bottle of wine when I picked up the car...did you get anything Cayennewkr?

I thinkall I can hope for is a deal on the finance. I have better (written) offer than Porsche, so should be able to haggle a bit.

Yeh I think Cayennewkr did a deal for finance.Mine wouldnt give me a bean for the finance deal but I guess they gave me enough elsewhere.

Just taken mine to be detailed straight from the dealership and under a proper light you cant believe the swirls and marks on the paintwork!!
