Really pleased. Beautifully finished and makes some very nice noises.

The noise gets better as the engine matures too.

450 miles in on mine and I’ve noticed a change in it already.

Congratulations. I'm still waiting to find out when mine is going to arrive at the OPC (hopefully next week). Ironic since both cars came over on the same ship.

Put 200 miles on the clock today. What a great car. I have a Cayman GTS which is brilliant and have been really surprised just how good the Macan GTS is

Engine still tight but seems to be great in sport. For some reason my dealer had put 3 bar in the tyres. I have air suspension but have decided to drop the pressures. What does everyone run their tyres at?

Impressed with Nav and car play etc

First impressions brilliant

The pressure info is on the sticker on the drivers door post. Part load is 2.3F and 2.5 R in bar.

I run my GTS 0.1 bar higher all round than those recommended pressures as I do a lot of cross country driving on minor roads and it helps reduce the shoulder wear on the fronts - my experience of 3 years with the SD.

It's often done for cars in storage, or perhaps transit in this case, to help prevent flat spotting. They should have been adjusted at PDI. As SAC1 says, you're best sticking to the recommended pressures shown on the sticker on the B pillar, which is what the TPMS system is set at.
