Default New GTS on order
I got lucky and found an allocation for a '18:

Saphire Blue
GTS interior (silver)
19" wheels with summer tires
PCCB
Sport crono
Thermal class
Trailer hitch
Aluminum look gas cap
Porsche entry
Alcantara steering wheel
Smoking package

Should be fun.

Sounds good. Not sure you can do the PCCBs with only 19” wheels though? I know you can’t on the Cayenne, 20” minimum for the PCCBs. Maybe the Macan is different?

Good question....the order took, but I'm going to question that right away. I prefer the higher profile rubber....

I wouldn't call PTV+ a nanny. It gives you a limited slip rear differential and helps you take corners harder with rear brake modulation.

TRUE Great on a 911, a waste on a Macan. I didn't order it either. Its not a race car like a 911, it is after all a sporty SUV...let the flaming begin...

Are you going to track it? Curious to know why you are going with PCCB.

if you are Apple user, iOS12 (september 2018) will allow us to use Waze, Google map through CarPlay.
if you opted out on navigation, it will be useful to have Apple CarPlay.
