Lowered the GTS
Used the Airmatic lowering links and I am very pleased. They are the cheaper model. I would suggest getting the EVO. THey look much nicer and are easier to adjust.

A couple questions. On the model shocks you didn't get you say easier to adjust, what do you mean? And how do you compare the ride quality before and after? Does this change or does it simply have a lower setting? Thanks!

THere are two types of lowering links from Airmatic. The manual silver model I have and the black EVO model. The evo model can be adjust whilst installed on the vehicle by twisting the cernter of its' body. The silver model must come off the car to adjust. As for ride quality it feels the same tbh. The lowering links simply trick the car to thinking it is riding higher than usual so it lets a little more air out of the airbags.

This is a first time for me also. I am enjoying it very much. I have just left it in low and sport plus since I brought it home last week though. I am so used to aggressive setups on my M cars this thing feels like an S class to me.

I find this interesting, and good. How many miles on your Macan now, and has the transmission changed/learned/adapted/anything in those miles with all the Sport+ your doing?

Looks cool. How does it look when you raise it? Got pictures of it in the highest setting?

Pretty amazing range of lift. Looks great either way!
I wonder, (after the novelty wears off, because I know I would play with it constantly) does changing the height have real-world benefits? Do you feel the difference in handling or ride comfort?

So in day to day driving I cannot tell the difference between normal and low from behind the wheel. However in Off Road mode you feel a lot more roll. However when hooning about in a wet field at 0300 it's nice having the extra few inches of ground clearance lol. Now if I can just get the first snowfall to really play with this thing.
