I,ll be pondering the spec of my pending Macan until it's build date middle of 2017, the demo I have at present has a Bose, but as in my 991 I,m not particularly impressed with sound in either to be honest, but I,ve not heard the standard hifi yet. Is it really that bad I need the Bose as a minimum? Has anyone had any aftermarket enhancements done to the sound system?

We had a Macan I deliberately didn't tick the Bose option because for me it lacked depth & clarity compared to what I'm used to also I'm lucky enough to have a very good audio specialist near me & he produced a much nicer sound for the similar money, although if you don't want to lose your car for another day then the Bose is okay.
Can I take it there is no disturbance to the dash? Where the speakers changed?

I have a diesel Macan and wondered the same before I specced it. I have a super hifi at home and wouldn't listen to it with an engine running in the background. I therefore plumped for the standard system and it's perfectly adequate. Save yourself the £800.
I,ve had my extended demo Macan for 3 months now, but getting my 991 back today. I,ve put a deposit on a DS, so well done Porsche. But the longer I,ve had it and after trying aGts also, I realise many of the expensive options you don't need. Especially if for me it's a proper daily driver, I'm sticking with 21', comfort seats, heated seat and wheel, black detailing and met black paint, + navigation obviously, everything else I see as pointless, and what a bargain of a car when you do that.
