No wonder everybody's confused!

This pretty much describes information flow in the world we live in. From the internet to the tabloids (news) and all the way to world politics.

Sorry, but all I hear is blah, blah, blah… On top of “we are a few months away.” My bet is on it being revealed this month (May) or next month.

I was thinking about speed yellow or whatever yellow is on the Macan EV from drive tests. Strange that they will show a PTS press car and PTS is not available on Macan EV.

The biggest change is moving the turn signals to the headlights, which hasn’t been the case since the 996.2. Interesting look and I’m not sure yet how I feel about it.

PAG did something similar with the 992 Carrera T. At least one press car was PTS Gulf Blue, though they did not make PTS available until the very end of the two-year run, and even then it was only for a few examples. It was a cruel tease for the many PTS hopefuls, especially since PTS was never available for the 991.2 T.

It's the turbo, which isn't in the configurator yet, so could very well be a standard color.
Looks more like signal yellow, but they seem to be coming out with new colors for the EV Macan.

I'm in hopes they are hidden under that tape on the bumper.

I'm a bit of a n00b to Porsche but from what I can tell looking at configurators for the past year, Porsche offers far more non PTS colors on the Macan and Taycan than they do on the 911

What does that Macan Turbo EV weigh? 6000 pounds?

5394 according to Porsche

But no one knows for sure. No real world scale tests yet.

Why is it weird to show PTS? It too can be yours for the low low price of 15k
