I would save the money on 20 wheel and go after market. Also if you don't care about bose logo you can live without it. Get sport chrono or PASM instead.

also spend 400 to get carbon fiber on steering wheel.
interior is important for me.
carbon fiber steering wheel and sport chrono clock will make me happier when I am driving the car.

Thanks for the suggestions but build spec is now locked. Considered SC and PASM but this is daily commute (which is 12 miles round trip) vehicle and ultimate performance not being sought.

Looks like a fine build!

Especially the Euro Delivery!

Have you ever done ED?

Default Macan S

Picked mine up 5 days ago. In every way it is slightly more than I expected and I was expecting a great car. The wife and I took it 70 miles to The Jersey Shore Saturday and it has been in the garage the last 2 days because it is raining and I am just not taking out in the rain. (right now) Ordered one of the last 2015s out there.

Likely headed south from Stuttgart via Switzerland to either Lake Como or Lake Lugano. Constructive thoughts on best driving route / food-beverage along the way much appreciated.

Also, does the USB port in the center counsel facilitate running iTunes into the audio system? Anyone have comments on XM as stand-alone, $500 option (acknowledging it may be too late for me to change my build)?

Vehicle completed last week - I'm guessing one of the first 2016 models. Too bad the pick-up trip is still several weeks away.

It's worth the wait!

Even harder can be the wait from when you drop it off in Europe till it comes to the dealer in North America!

That was pretty fast. They have shorter lead times now? Mine took 4 months to start the build and another month to get here.
