Wish you could capture the essence of Python Green in pictures. Red brake calipers are intentional, I like the contrast and fits the attitude of the car. Rowdy, loud and in your face… The Rodney Dangerfield of Macan’s!
Think I should PPF it? Always done PPF except on my last two cars, they weren’t any worse off without it. I think driving habits help keep the peppering down. Only reason to do it is the color and if potential repairs will match.

Did you trade in that blue beast next to it? I'm in the same boat, might get a GTS macan to save on the amount of money paying gas on that TRX!
Awesome, congrats! I have considered Python Green as I've seen it in person on a GTS and looks fantastic. Right now I'm going with Gentian Blue but you never know...

We were doing Miami Blue. Then at Sports Cars Together in Indy, she spotted the Python Green display they had and it is was over... decided she was doing green right there!
Wish you could capture what this color really looks like in person. Some of those photos from my SA look bleached out.
Personally I don’t think the ROI for PPI is going to be good with a Macan. Especially if you see yourself trading it in to a dealer down the road. High vehicle and that all black mouth is going to be the main target for rocks. Dealers aren’t going to value it any higher on a trade.
PPF shows rock chips just like paint does. Sure, you can pay thousands more to replace it…but will you?

That's my thought, I've done PPF on most of my cars and the return on investment is ZERO. I like the idea of protecting this particular colour because of respray matching, but we've got a great german auto body shop here. I'd trust him to perfectly match should I need it. My mind keeps flipping between "I need to protect the investment" and "I've spent too much already".
Love the Python Green - so nice with green stitching as well! No question that is loud and proud! Love my 2023 GTS I would go PPF for sure - I went PPF on front clip, mirrors, wheel arch's (front and rear), behind front wheel - to back wheel up to first line on door and behind the rear wheels on same line to bumper. Also did bumper and carbon fiber inserts at rear loading area and on carbon illuminated door entry guards.
I’ve not done PPF on the last two cars, three years and everything seemed to be going well. Then today a piece of debris kicked up from another car and took out a nice chunk of paint from my Teslas bumper. “It was at this moment, he knew he had Fvck3d up” 🤣
