I have my new macan in july and after a few days I found out that my headlight is fogging. I called the salesman and he told me it's normal and it will go away after you switch on the headlights. 

headlight fogging could be a sign of water ingress. but unless you post a picture, cant really say for sure... 
where did you buy your macan from?

Looks like Porsche are real foggers. 😂

@Jamesc buy your MIL one with your derisory Singtel 50k as DP and then we can call Porsche a mother fogger. 🤣

It is just a QC issue and the salesman is bluffing you.  Even a much cheaper new Vios won't have this issue.

I agree, condensation in the headlights is usually a sign that the rubber casket around the headlights has either wore off or not fixed properly.
