Upset about SQ5 wheel gap?

Don't be. Although we don't get the Euro-spec set up, it's nowhere near as bad as on this Macan I saw at the Chicago auto show today. BTW, this was Macan S with 340hp and sticker of $78k. So glad I went with SQ over this.

That looks like it has airbags and they are fully inflated

That is awful. Don't even understand. It's not a Hummer.
Yet another reason a RS6 Avant in the US would be awesome. But alas... |

On a derestricted autobahn, we saw an easy 160mph, and the Macan had plenty more to give. And here's the smart thing: unlike many smart Germans, the Macan can deal with gnarly roads, too. Especially riding on the £1700 optional air suspension, which is a thing of subtle magic, keeping the Porsche flat through even the most face-bending of corners without turning its ride to peanut brittle. |

Yes, it must have an adjustable ride height suspension that someone set to the highest setting.
Air Suspension Fully load-bearing air-spring struts with integrated dampers for three ride height settings with self-leveling and the possibility to lower rear axle to loading level. The variable damping system continuously regulates damping force to reduce body movements as the situation demands. Off-Road Level (+40 mm) - activated via "OFF-ROAD" button between 0-55 mph Normal Level - standard setting at any speed Low Level (-10 mm) - activated by pressing the PASM button twice at any speed Loading Level (-40 mm, rear only) - activated via button in the luggage compartment Although SQ5 owners will painfully remember that until the car actually arrived in the US, we all thought we were getting Euro ride height. I hope Macan purchasers aren't similarly blind-sided. Steve |
Makes sense if it's height adjustable, but car was locked so Porsche must have set it up that way for the show. Didn't read the whole sticker, just noticed the $78k total price.

I'll be ordering a Macan as soon as a diesel is available, without Nav and sunroof, should be under $60K
|
Looks like it's this one
It does say "Air Suspension" and "Active Suspension Management" on the sticker. |
