Did you get the $500 off at the dealer or from PCNA prior to delivery?

^^ We haven't received the car yet, just a letter informing us that the car is missing the feature and they give us $500.
Sorry cant find the letter now, probably you have the same.

I received the voucher on Sunday after taking delivery on Saturday. Dealership re-wrote my deal and decreased the $500 from the lease.

I just got the voucher for the Macan I ordered which is curranty in Emden and supposedly which will be loaded onto a ship Friday. Apparently Porsche has not only caught up with the people who already took delivery of affected Macans but is now sending the vouchers to those with sales orders well before delivery.

Cool. I'm getting the car on Friday and got the voucher yesterday. Perfect timing.

I did ask the dealer about another $179 discount for the steering column. I can't recall where I read about this but it was in some official Porsche bulletin. Strangely he said they haven't heard of anything like this... anyway, doesn't matter. I can't wait to get the car already.

I think they upped it from $179 to $500 and that you don't get both.

2022 GTS took delivery last Saturday. Build 3rd week of January 2022 at Lepzig. Manual column. Got the $500 discount voucher and dealer applied off purchase price.

So far it's not a big deal w/ the auto exit seat feature. Both my wife and I can clear the fixed column no problem w/ the auto exit. We are both about 5'8" and medium build, wife skinnier than me.

I'm wondering how rare 2022 Macans will be in the not too distant future.

JOKING…just trying to lighten a bad situation. Seems like there ought to be some upside for people who don’t get their car as ordered…

FUTURE CRIME:

"Uh gee, no officer, and they left our phones, and the catalytic converters, too..."

"Right...so all they took was your steering column? But they didn't take the steering wheel, is that right? Just the column...Strange. We'll get right on it!"
