I think my TTS has retained value close to MSRP so it's not a disaster financially to consider trading it. I've also considered trading just the Macan but having 500+k in 2 cars seems a little over the top for my conservative self. Appreciate any comments.
keep the 992 turbo S and trade the Macan! That would be a hell of a stable and you would have zero regrets 😉

Well that would be amazing, but downsizing to one car for me and one for my wife. Have 4 now, don't really drive 2.

downsizing to one I would go TGT all day long. Civil and semi under the radar then sport plus gets loud and feeling is very GT department!

Really nice build. If it was mine the only changes I would make are to leave the ceramic breaks shoes in yellow and add the Porsche black lettering decal on side. With the grey you picked these changes would make a nice contrast.

My order froze last Monday. Getting excited. One change you might consider is adding the crests to the headrests. When you go full leather, you lose the "Turbo GT" on the headrests. Looks a little plain without something there.

What other vehicles were you guys comparing when deciding on TGT? I know I brought it up before but still trying to decide. Looking at panamera turbo/gts, cayenne turbo-s, e63s, and bmw m8gran coupe. I know that’s kind of a random assortment but thought I would get your thoughts.

I currently have a 2023 m5c and had a deposit for the new m5 but with the weight close to 5500 and I am not sold on the new design I took my deposit back. I currently have an Alpina xb7 which is my wife's and love the space and drive for long trips. I wanted a sportier SUV for me. I contemplated the x5m and the x6m but once I read more about the TGT I was sold

For me I prefer the design of the m5 to the m8 (pre-hybrid), I like the way the Alpina b8 looks and that's probably the one I would have entertained. I never test-drove either though.

Have had f10 and f90m5s came from Panny st turbo before TGT and have driven m8 but not for too long. M5 suspension was garbage and the seating position I could never get comfortable the side bolsters stuck out too far. Panny was a dream. Drove it for 4 yrs 50k mi. Never thought anything could replace it. Test drove the TGT never looked back. Thing is next level in regard to the daily comfort and ride high of an SUV then sport plus cracks and bang and sweet lord the induction noise from the GT department just nailed it. Hope that helps!

I ruled out others. I had a Panamera non hybrid and it was too heavy. I can’t imagine the heavy feeling from the hybrid system. I sold my E63s due to stiff ride. After several thousand miles it finally got to me as a DD. I was not a M5 fan for its lack of steering and precision but would go for a CS. Given the utility of TGT I prefer the Cayenne at this point. I think Purosangue is its main rival unless you really like Urus.

I guess I made the right decision of getting rid of the m5, I haven't driven the TGT but I am looking forward to making that my DD

Thank you!! Sounds like great praise for the GT!
not to be a downer…but anyone considering trading there’s in (or have already done so)?
I noticed there are a lot of used TGT for sale right now. (Even a few used ‘24s). Way more than panameras or even cayenne rurbo-s. Just trying to figuure out why.
