Looks like a lighter interior? I actually like the one in your pic better, was it grey or linen?

Anyone know what the sensor in the center of the grill is?

Usually those sensors are a part of an adaptive braking system. The car will slow down automatically when nearing other cars from behind.

If anyone in the Atlanta area wants to see the new Macan up close, there's one sitting down at the High Museum of Art.

There is a brand new exhibit there called "Dream Cars" and Porsche is one of the primary sponsors.

We were down there this past Sunday to attend a private preview and it was REALLY cool.

My in-laws are longtime members, so I took my two sons and my father-in-law, and we had a blast.

The only Porsche in the exhibit is the Porsche 918 Spyder Concept Car (which is extremely impressive).

But since Porsche is the main sponsor, they have a separate display of current models out in front of the building.

The show opens to the public later today, and runs through September 7th.

It is truly a “must-see” exhibit for any car people. I highly recommend it.

Thanks! The Porsche display at the North Carolina Museum of Art was spectacular. Road Trip!
