Default No optional sports exhaust for Macan?

On the Porsche website, there used to be a webpage mentioning an optional sports exhaust. That webpage is now gone. I had bookmarked that page but when I try to go there, it says the webpage doesn't exist.

That's correct - the PSE content was pulled and is not currently listed as an option. Speculation is that it will appear in week 10 of 2014 as an option.

Checking out some of the new content on the microsite, there is an interior shot which shows the PSE button on the console.



So PSE would seem to be coming - just a matter of when.

Macan S shares the same engine as the 2014 Panamera 4S ... albeit detuned? Interesting video reviews on YouTube by motortrend: 2014 Porsche Panamera 4S: Is a Twin-Turbo V-6 Better than a V-8? The reviewer doesn't seem to be too excited about the V-6. The reviewer mentioned pressing the exhaust button so I think the yet vehicle is equipped with the sports exhaust.

4:35. Doesn't sound very good. Mechanical whine. Not interesting engine.
6:45 Biggest disappointment in engine. Doesn't have excitement.

In the video review for the 2013 Panamera GTS which has a V8, the same reviewer mentioned that it has a "wonderful engine note" so it doesn't sound like he is biased against the Panamera.

Kewin92, thanks for posting this. Google translator translated as follows.

Sports tailpipes
You can request for your sports pipes Macan. The 2 twin tailpipes have an independent design chromed stainless steel in high-gloss look. They are also chromed in Black. A visually distinctive statement in terms of sportiness. Optional for all models Macan.
Introduction planned for 11/2014

I had to type it into the translator since I couldn't copy/paste text from the image.
