For those who specced and put down a deposit, I'm surprised there's little concern on this board about the new availability of a model (4S) between the 4 and Turbo. Pretty sure I would have chosen this instead of the 4 had I known or been told about it. About 100 hp difference, newer model year for 6K.

When I paid deposit for Macan 4 nearly 5 months ago, the Sales Executive at the Porsche dealership told me the same story when I enquired about the base RWD version, and he said it was unlikely to come out.
Now I'm trying to change my reservation for the base model - my cost constraints and I prefer RWD and its longer range, anyway. I don't need a superfast car on speed limited roads. Most EVs are pretty fast anyway compared to ICE equivalent.
Besides, at 0-62, the base Macan is just half a second slower than Macan 4.
Now even after adding more options on the base Macan, which I wanted but couldn't afford, I'm still saving quite a bit : )

I think I'm gonna shift from the Turbo to the 4S, seems to be my sweet spot.

Based on the specs of my Turbo order, switching to the 4S would save me about $8k - not insignificant.
However the car wouldn’t look as good (front and back) and would be slower too. The 4S is certainly more than adequate but…
Seeing as I’m splurging on this car, I feel $8k is an affordable price to pay to get what I have been eyeing all along.
