I did not have any expectation as to timing as I knew I could not get to Europe until July/Aug. I could have gotten one of the very last 2015s but paid both the base price increase for 2016 and option amount just to get Cararra White Metallic. I know - kind of stupid. Here is the timing of my order:
04/10 Build submitted to Porsche
05/22 Order fixed at factory
06/05 Order completed
i plan to build mine and it will be my first time building a porsche vs picking one from the lot. How much down payment will they require? don't want to put a lot as i am still cross shopping
I think our deposit was $3K but believe deposits are dealership specific. I have a good relationship with my dealer due to past purchases and thought the amount fair.

I've put $1500 or $2000 down on the last two Porsches I ordered. Each was my first purchase from that dealership, and both were refundable if I wanted to back out. You may be in a different position if you want to order some odd combination of colors and options, though. But I don't think that's really possible on a hot model like the Macan with its current options pallet.
also spend 400 to get carbon fiber on steering wheel.
interior is important for me.
carbon fiber steering wheel and sport chrono clock will make me happier when I am driving the car.
Make sure you check-out in person the CF or Walnut steering wheels as they feel hard and cold in comparison to the leather. The Macan S I am picking up has the full leather and walnut package, including the steering wheel, and I MAY swap it out.
I remember seeing a 993 C4S with CF package and the CF steering wheel had damage to it from the owner(s) ring hit it.
