The site still has not been updated since August 4 and that is unusual. There should be separate orders for the, Carreras, S's, GTS's, GT3's, etc.
Certifications are now posted:

Glad for you all, at least your cars will get out of the way of my Macan S sitting out there rotting.

Default Rust!

One of my main concerns when taking delivery of my 2018GTS. This is a 2018 just listed and it was prob sitting outside just like mine and many others for a month and half. No way am I excepting it if my rotors look like this.

One 20 minute spirited drive and those rotors will look like new. No worries.

Agreed....they'll look worse than that 15 minutes after every wash.

Eh idk boys. Yea on the rotor surface , yes. But not where the brake pads arnt hitting. Have had many cars where that rust pictured does not go away unless you actually take the wheel off and scrub or use rust cleaner. I have had to paint these parts b4 bc of all the rust that would not go away.

If you're using the car as intended, you'll be replacing the rotors long before the rust is any significant concern (unless you just don't like the look). If you're that sensitive to the look, then maybe consider PCCB upgrade...

I just looked at every 2018 for sale, and none of the others have it. I think this dealer just doesn't give an F about polishing it all out.

If that's the case, dealer should make sure the customer never sees it in that condition.
