I bet! I rocked around in both Caymans with 20s and no PASM and found the ride absolutely fine though
Hmm also just double checked the configurator and it’s not an option to spec on the base Macan anyway! Strange.
It would have been present as an option for the base but for the global parts situation. Porsche reserving the bits they can get for S and GTS's. if you get a chance before your build locks to drive a demo base with 21's then I would take the opportunity to make sure you will be happy with the combo

Welcome to the forum.

As others have said, the car looks great. But (there has to be a but :D ) you've spent all your option money on how the car looks to others and nothing on the interior which is where you'll spend most of your time. If you're happy with that fine, I just hope you don't come to regret it.

For me,how the car looks on the outside is just as important as to how it looks on the inside.
I want to lock my car,walk away but look back and think that’s a great looking car, not ,I wish I’d gone for the 21’s but at least I’ve got 18way seats and not 8.!!
I was once told that if you never look back at your car and think wow, you’ve bought the wrong car.( or specced it wrong). :D

As sweetmeister says above, I like to always look back at my cars and be unable to tear my eyes away! I just love a gorgeous aesthetic, and as I don’t do many miles (work from home), I find the basic interior absolutely fine for my needs. I’ve had the basic 8 way seats in both my previous Caymans and found no issues with them at all, even on long motorway drives. I’m also 5ft 3” and early 20s, so maybe once I’m a fair bit older with pending back pain then seat positioning and comfort will be more of a priority :lol: :lol:

Absolutely. With my Caymans, I glanced back every single time, and always got a tingle of joy whenever I returned to it. Looks are definitely important for me in prestigious cars. I like them to be loud!

Wow (and this is jealousy talking), when I was in my early 20s I couldn't afford a car never mind a Porsche.
