also interested in any pics of the hitch on the Macan and if anyone has experience yet towing with there Macan? With a 4400lb tow capacity i'm not worried about towing my racebike but curious how it drives with a trailer in tow.

I'm getting it. Dealer told me it was over $1800 to add it afterwards. Same with the roof rails.

Someone on another forum purchased and installed the Q5 kit, and I believe the cost was closer to $700, not including the wiring kit. Here is a photo of the Q5 kit, apparently ordered from Suncoast. I think the owner cut out the hole in valence himself rather than ordering a new valence.

I ordered mine with the hitch and the roof rails. Not sure I'll be pulling much, but just in case it's better to have it and not need it than the other way around.
