Welcome.

20 days is about the average from the end of build to the car arriving at your OPC.

7 days is the quickest and my own Turbo took 14 days.

Welcome to #TeamRed! We welcome you with open arms!

Thats one pimped out spec! For that price I'd have been looking at the Turbo PP! But you'll love the GTS with more toys than the turbo!

It was very much a case of tick all the options!

I did think about the Turbo PP but by the time id put all the oprions on it was a bit more than I wanted to pay.

Plus the new R8 takes care of going fast, the Macan was an attempt at being sensible but not boring

Looking forward to getting involved on the forum and taking the new toy all over the place!

An R8 and a macan! That'll make for an excellent driveway!

And remember to change the key colour with an after market side blade! It really sets up the drama for when you pick it up heading for the car!

I love the thought of a Macan GTS with 17Ks worth of options being the sensible choice. Can't wait to see the version when you go crazy Big smile

Awesome car, I'm sure you will be thrilled with it :)

Evil

do you have a link to the aftermarket side blades?
AND are they easy to fit?

The link is http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Key-Cover-for-Porsche-Remote-Smart-Case-Fob-Skin-Protection-Shell-Bag-Side-Cap-/182160680405?var=&hash=item2a699f65d5:m:m3UEQJ0OVHALJXFNwO9mZQg

And it took me all of 25 seconds to change them! remove 1 screw, slide out the key. pop off the side blades, click the new ones in, re do the screw! Done!

I made a youtube video on it, but talked too much! so need to reshoot it really! So its not up on youtube yet.
