Just found out my GTS is leaving the port and will be at the dealer this weekend. I'm going to trade in my 2008 Cayenne Silver / Black with only 30,750 miles, which has been a great car. It's in the classifieds if you're interested. I will post pics of my GTS when I pick it up this weekend.
Attached is the build I went with if you're curious.

congrats, i hear the new cgts is simply awesome to drive, and you have chosen a great (maybe even the optimal combo IMHO, given the standard alcantara interior) color combo of white/black/carbon. can you post or link to a photo of your panamera gts- love that mexico blue!

Thank you for posting the details of your spec.
We are very seriously considering going the GTS route. We have a deposit for an S with the dealer, but have not finalized the order yet. After looking at the options we were considering and comparing it to the GTS, we are thinking that will be the route.
Our dealer gave us an opportunity to take their demo on an extended test drive and, no doubt, the GTS is quite a vehicle.
I will be really interested to see your pictures as we too will likely go with white exterior and a pretty stock interior. Our spec would be quite basic though, as a "base" GTS is pretty much at our cost threshold. It is easy to talk me into options, but I am trying to hold the line. From all I have read the PTV and PDDC (which you have) are great performance options.

500_19B, I would seriously go with the GTS unless you prefer the non-turbo look in the front. The GTS has the Porsche’s new Sound Symposer tech which enhances the visceral appeal/feel as pressing Sport induces the V8 audio to be piped into the cabin via the A-pillar.As for me, I am extremely happy with our CS but it's intended purpose is a highway cruiser. Hence no sport exhaust or sound symposer is needed. Instead it has noise a insulating glass. I did a detailed review on all the options when I first bought the Cayenne. Check that thread out when you get a chance. Please don't forget to option it wtih PDCC/PTV. To the OP a big congratulations.

The carbon package looks great with the GTS alcantara/leather style.
Congratulations!
Anyway, in my case, a pretty base GTS is sort of like the Cayenne S with the options that we were considering (RS Spyder-design wheels, air suspension, sport-design package) and I will likely keep it pretty much base for budgetary reasons...

Beautiful GTS. Agree with you 500_19B, bare bones GTS gets you the once you mentioned. What more do you need. Just enjoy one of the best Cayennes ever. I am very happy for you all.
