Welcome! Sounds and looks good! The must have list is:

Must have are:
PASM
Bi xenon or LED
14 or 18 way seats (Or standard GTS seats)
heated seats
Sat Nav
connect +
sun roof
19-20" wheels
spare wheel
surround camera
Interior lighting pack
Driver memory (if 14 or 18 way not chosen)
Smoking package - to cover the hole in the console.

So all you;re missing on that spec is:

connect + - live traffic, google earth, car connection stuff, wifi inside all that jazz.
surround camera - a must have with 21" wheels to stop kerbing! Its only a few quid!
Interior lighting pack - just to add that final touch of luxury to the nice GTS interior pack you specced!
Driver memory - so the electric seats remember their positions and the passenger mirror drops when reversing!

Welcome glad you have raised your head above the fence and introduced yourself.

You will know the pro and cons of the extras.

On my second Macan and my fave items are, PASM, the Bose sound system, 14 way seats, Spyders, heated steering wheel and Google Earth on the SatNav.

Surround cam is way way better than RevCam and worth the difference.

Spare wheel and bought cans of sealant/inflator gives you options

If the budget allows LEDs are way better than Xenons

Do check out the 8 way seats properly, members like SteveW has them in their Macan and they work for them but there is nothing worst than being seated a bit uncomfortable when you do not have to.

Budget a ProDetail job as the paintwork at pickup can be dramatically improved

Welcome reidoo

Spec looks good and you have plenty on there. Test the seats and maker sure you are happy with comfort etc.
You will get plenty of great advice on the forum.

Evil Ras I am dissapointed it took you 16 minutes from reidoo's post to copy and paste your list. Must try harder Kasfranks992016-11-30 20:50:52

Welcome to the forum, Reidoo.

Watch this lot - they'll spend every penny you have (and a few that you don't..). LOL Clap

Seriously though, if you need friendly help and advice, you're in the right place.

Nice spec, BTW Thumbs Up

Friendly and helpful advice always given on here but read "must have" as "nice to have". Your Macan will still start in the morning and be a wonderful vehicle without any of Evil's list. I've got a suspicion that he works for Porsche and is on commission.Smile
