You've chosen wisely. This car is low-key a monster. I'm selling and having attachment issues being the first owner.

However I might be a little biased, here’s mine.

The GTS is fabulous you are going to have a lot of fun. Have you checked your tire pressures? Mine was delivered at the upper bound which made for a noisy and tail happy experience. It was fun at first sliding the rear but that wore off pretty quick. I’m running comfort settings now and the grip is phenomenal.

Enjoy

I set mine per page 344 of the manual, comfort setting partially loaded (cold, 31 front and 37 rear). My rears were at 45 as delivered, must be the standard autobahn setting . My car was delivered at the end of last year so the roads were cold and damp. It was my first Porsche so I drove it for a few weeks thinking this is totally tail happy Then I read a thread about how Porsche often delivers cars with tire pressures set for high speed, but a lot of folks prefer the comfort setting as we are not hitting the autobahn.

The ride instantly improved, less road noise and major rear grip

I’m sure there is a personal optimal pressure but I like mine set at comfort.

Checked mine today and F is 35 while R is 49 ... I will be lowering the rear to around 30. Thanks for the tip!
