Hello all! I've been browsing your forum for a few months now, even though all of your steering wheels are on the wrong side ;)

Just wanted to say hello! Lots of great advice and photos here I have appreciated seeing.

I currently drive a 2015 Sapphire Blue Macan Turbo (http://www.porsche-code.com/PJYG92U9) that I ordered in 2014. It has been a wonderful car so I have a new PTS 2018 Turbo Performance Pack on order that will be Malachite Green (http://www.porsche-code.com/PJYWBMB7). I'm hoping for a May or June delivery.

Cheers and happy motoring!

Welcome Rennwagon! Nice car in a nice setting. We'll all look forward to the pics of the new one too.

Just one correction though, it's you guys, plus most of the rest of the world, that have the steering wheel on the wrong side! We can still lean out of the driver's window to hold our lances or swords with our right hand! :lol:

Thanks, Nuclear Nick! I will come post pics of the new one when it arrives, which won’t be for a while...long wait begins [emoji42]

Hadn’t thought about the need to hold swords out the window. But I’ve spent so much time on the configurator how could I have missed the lance stabilizer option? [emoji12]

No we suffer under this Germanic plan to make us try to enter destinations by drawing letters with our wrong hand!

Welcome, Rennwagen! :)

Love your Sapphire Macan, and I think that your new PTS one will be even more special!

Looking forward to the pics already! :D

Cheers!

Hi Renwaggen,

Great spec with your replacement, like the colour, a real classic British look along with the interior. 😉

Thanks, gents! Looking forward to getting it. Very true on the classic British shades of green and tan--sophisticated sport, one might say! Should look something like these photoshopped versions...I can't wait :-)

Also welcome Rennwagon and beautiful photos. You will enjoy this forum if you can get the hang of our British humour which many can't. That being said there are some very knowledgeable and helpful members here and everyone generally plays nicely :)
