Looking to buy new Macan S - any advice
Discussion
Good morning all,
I am looking at buying my first Porsche.
Is there any advice you would give for essential Macan S options?
I am also looking to potentially use Porsche finance, reading some of the older posts there seems to be limited to zero negotiation on rates and discounts. Has anyone any recent experience? Will probably be using Porsche Stockport.
Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks!

I’m not going to offer an opinion on spec as this is pretty subjective but would suggest you try to see and drive a few different cars to form an idea of what you want. The salesperson will almost certainly suggest some “essential “ options to help with the sale of the car once you’re done with it but it is up to you if you really want or need them.
As far as discounts go, they’re not unheard of but being new to the brand and the shortage of new car availability I’d suggest that getting one would be very unlikely. But no harm trying even if it means getting a few freebie’s. I’m told the current waiting time is around 9 months for a new order so be prepared for that as well.
Porsche finance isn’t the most competitive and there are other providers that will do a better deal so definitely worth shopping around to see what’s available.
Other that that you might want to pop over to https://www.macanforums.co.uk. They are a very knowledgeable and friendly bunch who discuss this very topic on a regular basis so will probably prove quite helpful in your quest.

My tip would be to get your name on the deposit list at an OPC ASAP. That way you’ll be in the queue while you make a decision.
My Dad put a deposit on a Macan S in June, still hasn’t had an allocation. Current guesstimate for delivery is Q1 2022. Chatting with same OPC this week, said they are telling all new order requests (all Porsche models, not just Macan) that earliest delivery will be Q4 2022 or most likely Q1 2023.
