Sorry, on a Porsche nothing is assumed standard except for the crest.

 

@gtr It seems they dropped CDR+ down to CDR. Probably trying to push Bose or Burmester more, especially now that one of those two is required just to order the nice packages.

 

Wow more parts from the base Q5? I wonder if its a stripped base Audi Concert?

Basically, Porsche is saying bose or no radio on a 70k car. Ouch..more Porsche Tax. Any more Tax I may set sail across the ocean and find new vehicles .

 

It says Sound Package Plus is 150 watt total power with integrated amplifier and digital signal processing in the Product News. What happened to the base 235watts?

I got hold of a confidential transcript of a recent executive meeting between Porsche and Bose.

Porsche: Thank you for taking the time to meet with us today. We're very concerned that a lot of Macans are being ordered without the Bose option. Our bean counters hate losing margins and profits.
Bose: What feedback are your marketing folks getting?
Porsche: It appears that a lot of people can't justify $1,400 for the Bose when they feel it doesn't sound any better than our base sound system.
Bose: Well I told you guys that with the low amount of money Porsche is willing to pay us - we could only spec cheap paper cones in our speakers, a lightweight sub, and exaggerated wattage claims. Are you willing to pay us more?
Porsche: hahahahahaha Nein!
Bose: Hey - I just thought of an idea. Why don't you downgrade your base system so the Bose sounds better in comparison.
Porsche: Great Idea! We'll make the base system so poor that everyone will be crazy not to upgrade to the Bose. The only folks ordering the base system will be the crazy penny pinchers and old guys with poor hearing. Glad we got together today!
Bose: Let's knock down some Becks and celebrate!
