Default Finally got my Macan S

I ordered it January 4, 2024, the build was completed March 15, 2024 and it arrived at the dealership April 26, 2024. The car spent a lot of time sitting at the port in Germany and a week or so before it was unloaded from the ship and put on a truck in Rhode Island.

Below is a photo of the exterior (Dolomite Silver) and interior (Pebble Grey full leather with dark walnut trim).

It took several hours yesterday setting things up. Luckily, there were a couple of Youtube videos that showed the various settings.

Love it! My '23 S is also Dolomite Silver, but I have the Black/Bordeaux interior, but I also have the Dark Walnut trim. I recommend getting the Flat 6 Euro-style side marker lights that blend in well against the Dolomite Silver. It takes less than 10 minutes to swap them out!

The side marker lights do look good. Similar to what I did on my 996. Where did you get them?

Looks awesome. And quite familiar I like your wheels better than mine though.

Here's mine:

I'm casually looking at Macans. and notice your console isn't glossy like the new ones I've seen. Is that a change recently. Too much shiny stuff for me....

If this was in response to my photos, this is a 2020 Turbo, and the interior trim is a matte black. It's certainly nothing special, but it is indeed nice that it isn't piano black. I just looked back at the build sheet and it looks like it might be leather? Is that possible? I bought this used, so I honestly don't know. The center console is certainly just matte black. It was for all the Macans of this generation prior to the current refresh.

I have the piano-gloss haptic feedback console on my '23 S. I hate piano gloss, so I had satin PPF installed over the console to reduce glare and fingerprints.

I'd be curious to see how that looks.

This is the best picture I had on my phone. I can take some better pictures later today if you want!

Looks sharp. I bet it would look cool to PPF the wood trim as well to match.
