Congratulations Stellauk. Assuming its a 1 at the end of your code, that's a nice spec. And not too long to wait. Enjoy when it arrives.

Yes it is 1 not I ! Changed the wheels to spyder ones as really preferred the look. Also have black interior instead agate grey due to husband’s preference. I don’t want to hear him moaning every time he is in the car 🤔.
I asked re facelift time table. The SA said Porsche will stop production from June for three month! So any new facelift cars will be available late this year or early next year. He said he would be surprised if Macan would get the new info system. Then he is trying to close the deal. I also heard Macan may get Audi ‘s new engine instead a Porsche one which make economic sense. However, I would like a Porsche engine as the characteristic is quite different from Audi.
Anyhow, I am happy with the choice and already planning a road trip for May bank holiday. 👍

You'll love it! I've had my S for about 7 weeks, and it's exquisite.

Couldn't agree more - after a very early and unusual hitch I've had my S for 10 weeks and I love it

Very reasonable of you. If he ever says it feels a bit dark and boring having an all black interior, you can give him a told-you-so and a thick ear with the backing of all agate grey owners. ;)

A while since this thread was last seen, for my own sanity can anyone advise if the 8 & 18 way seat options in the GTS are something you get used to the more you use your new found love, I'm average build with the normal aches and pains for a 55 year old and I' ve tried all options but favoring the 14 way, although not being available in the GTS package with Race-tex (favoured material), and also diverting the styling away from a GTS blueprint, I actually like the leather panel shapes in the 14 way also.......This is the only option I am struggling with so any comments would be appreciated.

I too am of average build. I had the standard 8-way seats in my SD as I preferred the Alcantara centre panels. Those seats were amazingly comfortable, especially on 200+ mile trips.

On my new GTS I again went for the 8-way for the same reason. In the GTS these are sport seats with bigger bolsters and so a more snug fit. They feel a bit firmer too. Quite acceptable, but not quite as coseting. They do hold you better when pushing on through the bends.
