FK, good that you changed that RWS option. It really does allow the big car to be more agile. Little changes like that make the purchase your own.

In US, my car was out of production middle of February and made it to port March 5. At port they make software changes and other various pre delivery items, but delivery of car was end of March.

yes rws is the best. Also bose is good but I’d opt for the retractable rear cargo liner. The hard one is padded and insulates a lot of exhaust tone and bass. I have a fully loaded 4S and the bass and car sound much better with that hard toneau cover removed.

I've driven with and without RWS. Most people order it, but I'm glad I didn't. You have to get it with Power Steering Plus, which makes the electric steering even lighter and number than it already is.

not a big deal I guess I’ve had power steering plus and never even knew it. When I get loaner panameras without rws. I can’t park the cars in the tight spots i usually have to maneuver into. It makes a world of difference in your daily living.

Have to say my 19 Turbo with steering is not over assisted at all. At higher speeds it’s got a lot of feel.

Same impression on my 18 Turbo. Not over assisted at all.

I’ve read that Power Steering Plus can be disabled by the dealer. I’m going to look into this further once my GTS arrives.

Just test drove this chalk car just now. Coming from a 17 panamera 4S. Power is def more sensitive but not much. Granted I was only on a test drive. Went on freeway too, but with Salesman, and new engine I didn’t accelerate hard. Def getting one braking is great.

here’s the black headlights for $600 more in case anyone debating the stock ones with a dark chrome? I’ll prob go with the shinier ones but we’ll see. Configuring this car $$ gets up there.

Looking good! the showroom that had the gts (which i was previously thinking of ordering) with less options and almost $20k more expensive than my order received theirs, SA called me to rub it in my face i guess. It's been almost a month since i ordered mine and im losing patience,Can't believe it's a june build so the car doesn't even exist! It's like waiting for a baby before u even get the girl 😭
