Re: 2l or S - and what should I spec?

Pano roof is a must have in Oz. The vast majority of Macans in Oz have it, and it will definitely affect residual value without it, and might make it quite hard to sell. Also you will use it more than you think. I use it almost every day, and can therefore do without the a/c most of the time, which ...
