Default WTB Mamba Green GTS or Turbo

As the title says, looking for new or used Mamba Green Macan GTS or turbo. Unfortunately I missed the boat on the green when I went to order my car. Stuck with Midnight blue at the moment. I do have an option for the Macan S in green, but I am not sure about the 3.0 L engine, especially since it sounds like it will be phased out for 2020, potentially making that engine very undesirable on the used market.]

Thanks

Can have mine for $150k lol

2021 GTS with premium plus package, sport chrono, ptv+, and a few other goodies, less than 1000km on it.

Sounds like the perfect trade for my 991.1 GTS, which I also want 150K for.

Have you thought about wrapping your incoming midnight blue? Or perhaps switch to the free black option on your order and put some of that savings toward a good full color change wrap. A good shop should be able to get the exact color match and you will also have the added benefit of protection of the original paint for when you go to sell or trade one day.

Pics/build of said 991.1 GTS? lol

Although let's be honest here, a 2021 Macan GTS isn't worth $150k, I'd be making a tidy profit off of that sort of sale price.

I've thought about this, too. Is there a match for MGM out there somewhere that's good quality? I looked on a couple of the bigger sites (3M and...I forget the other one) and there didn't seem to be anything similar.

The cost of a full wrap is prohibitive for me. I'd rather just buy a place holder and wait for the green to come to market used. Who knows, maybe I won't like the green in a year or two.

I ordered a GTS in night blue. I will keep my eye on the market for a used green one in the next few years.

I had actually called them about that car. It's a customer order. She said they've almost never had a GTS that wasn't ordered for a customer / pre-sold.

AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!

I just emailed them to get the build sheet. I guess I will have to settle for the night blue GTS I ordered. Thanks everyone for the info though.

I keep trying to convince myselt that I would probably get sick of that green after a while. But I will keep looking.

They replied to my email and I can confirm this is a customer order. I don't know why dealerships list already sold cars on their websites.
