I do not tow anything with my Macan, I rather drive the Cayman to the track. But I open this thread weekly to see Karen's latest "profile" picture.

I came to the same conclusion : Ma can not towing.
Well, a "Porsche" ..with a single piston caliper on the rear, ..looks a bit like a joke, no ?

..Or may be, we have to sell our P track cars and go Radical

If anyone is interested as an update I've hardwired a Prodigy and towed my 6GT3 via my Trailex 7541 successfully, FWIW.

Try a search of her "archives" in other forums but not if you have a heart condition!

Yep, there it is, plain as day. 5291 pounds. Black and white.

"Towing capacity (braked / unbraked) 5291 lbs / 1653 lbs"

Yesterday I Googled the Porsche website. When I drilled down I saw the 4409 number. Bizarre.
