Default Macan GTS - Exhaust Sound
You know, honestly, for OEM exhaust, it sounds pretty good...I actually like the tone better when warmed up.

Definitely sounds good. I am hoping the 22 Macan S with PSE will sound just like this since it has the same 2.9L engine from the GTS .

As far as I've heard, the new GTS is mechanically identical from a drivetrain perspective other than having the tune from the old Turbo.

Green. We like green! And we like the sound of our turbo although it has taken me a while (my reference is a 2014 c4s).

Mamba Green is the best colour ever put on a Macan. Try to change my mind!

That's the green we had on our 2021 order that Porsche cancelled. Love it! We're doing Papaya on our 2022 order b/c we don't like the new green. Sigh.

Im currently driving my 22 GTS daily and I agree the OEM exhaust sounds great. Very nice growl in the cabin. There is not much difference between regular and sport exhaust though. I certainly see no need to switch to aftermarket.

Outside the sports exhaust makes more difference than in the cabin.

"Regular" exhaust on the 2022 S is much louder than on the 2019 S Is SPORT louder than that?

Sport exhaust sounds great with the pano roof all the way open. Love the bark on upshift.

Agreed, that upshift sound is sweet....I tried to capture some video of it that same day, but the camera didn't capture it well.
