Opinions sought re Gen 3 S V GTS
The guy I spoke to at OPC last week did. Mechanics I've spoken to referred to Gen 1 and Gen 2.
Also, if you look at the accessories catalogue "Tequipment " [urlhttps://content3.eu.porsche.com/prod/pag/tequipment/TeqFinder.nsf/TeqFinder?ReadForm&country=gb][/url] and place your mouse over Macan it offers Macan III, Macan II and Macan.
I was looking to see what they did about winter wheels on the GTS but none offered yet.

Despite what some say about the actual model not changing from 2014, the best communication is often simple and therefore aids understanding
2019 Macan S Porsche code PKW8WKI8
I compared the spec of the new GTS with the spec on my Turbo and the difference is the GTS works out about £2.5 K cheaper. So essentially it's a discounted Turbo. I won't indulge as the stiffened suspension doesn't appeal and the new GTS doesn't offer anything I don't already have (except a lot of additional black plastic)
I was hoping that we might get Matrix Headlights and a HUD in the latest upgrades, but it seems nothing much has changed, Porsche are very slow in catching up with the competition. I had matrix lights in my Mercedes CLS in 2015, then a HUD in my AMG in 2017 and miss them both as they are great safety features in their own right.
i actually said I’d never get a car without HUD as its so unbelievably useful, especially for sat nav. Can’t remember the last time I looked at the actual instrument binnacle. In the end it turns out it was a sacrifice i was willing to make, but we’ll see if it was a mistake or not after I get the Macan.RGS wrote: ↑Sun Jul 25, 2021 5:41 pm I was hoping that we might get Matrix Headlights and a HUD in the latest upgrades, but it seems nothing much has changed, Porsche are very slow in catching up with the competition.

You can option standard adaptive air suspension on the new GTS so it rides the same as the turboRGS wrote: ↑Sun Jul 25, 2021 4:58 pm I compared the spec of the new GTS with the spec on my Turbo and the difference is the GTS works out about £2.5 K cheaper.

By doing this is replaces the sports air suspension that comes as standard (I.e. stiffer and lowered)
I didn't notice that the standard air suspension could be substituted for the stiffer sports suspension, it might make a difference in the future if I decide to change. At present my Turbo is less than 2yrs old and only 6.5K miles on the clock so I'm not in a rush to change just yet. Wife loves it and the colour (Sapphire Blue) which has drawn so many nice comments. It's a shame Porsche dropped it but it makes the car a bit of rarity as the gen 2 Turbo has only had a 20 month lifespan.
