Macan GTS build
Hi everyone, I just sent my build to my dealer after much investigation on the forums. http://www.porsche-code.com/PHU4G8W2
1. I opted out of porsche connect plus since I don't really see myself using apple carplay and the other phone app features seem kind of gimmicky, I had it on my F80 M3 and never used it.
2. I opted in PTV+ since I like to drive in the mountains and it seems to make the car feel "lighter" on turns. The non PTV+ GTS I test drove handles well already so I imagine it gets better unless you all say it's not worth it.
3. I could not stand lane keeping assist so unchecked that
4. 20 inch RS spyder black rims just because it's exclusive to GTS, thought silvers looked a little better imo
5. Painted side blades since the stock ones looked a little cheap. Also the painted side blades do look contrasty due to the concave nature of it.
other than that I got 18 ways, full leather, piano black trim, LED headlights, sports chrono, seat ventilation, premium package (the panorama roof is awesome and I'm only 5'9")
Any options I'm missing? Thanks guys!

My GTS came in a week ago Fri.
1. Agree, imo no benefit vs. on going cost.
2.No ptr; no off road, some track in the future.
3. Agree
4. I got the silver, I like the design and silver shows it off.
5. Mine is white and the side blades look good.
I did the leather/alcantara in black, LED's. You might want the sport design side view mirrors
. They look good in white. The black brushed aluminum trim is really cool looking.
Enjoy your new wheels.

Congratulations on the new ride! I have piano black selected right now but may change to brushed black. Do you think the brushed black is more resilient? Do you plan on applying clear bra? I'm on the fence whether it's necessary given ride height

My girlfriend has the piano black. The issue is fingerprints show up like neon lights. The brushed aluminum is a matte finish and does not show prints etc.
I am not going to put on the clear bra. i have never done it with any of my more recent P cars. My GT3 has 4,000. track miles on it and not a single chip YET!
