There is the option to paint the blades in body colour. That gives you black GTS. The red was important to me to carry the brakes through to the body. I therefore paid the extra £150ish for the red. Its a nice touch and makes a huge visual difference. To me anyway.
Im not sure if the GTS is painted or just a decal. I know you can buy the red decal on inter web if you wanted red gts on a used Macan.

Mine 😇

Full pictures to follow when I receive it later this week…
Looks lovely, I've specced the GTS in silver over the black SB's, wondering if now to make them body colour.

Much altered spec but looking Q2 22 build so plenty of time to change again.

Nice build! Mine is very similar, went for dolomite as well:

Should be getting mine next month. I went for painted sideblades after seeing them in person on a Gen 2 GTS in dolomite - looked good.

Our builds are similar but I saved on BOSE (don’t notice the difference between that and base speakers, having owned both in the past) and put that money towards 18 way seats and GT heated steering wheel.

Dolomite just seems to suit the GTS very well, who doesn't love a silver Porsche? :)

I've had Bose in two Porsche's and Burmester in my last spyder so always tick the box, maybe i should sample the standard system.
Again I've always had 18 ways but didn't think i would need thw adjustment in the macan particularly as the standard seats look supportive even on the back unlike 2 ways in the 981/2 platform.
Will look into the seats when I'm next at the opc.

Be sure to upload some photos of the dolomite GTS, it looks a stunning build and the SB's certainly good painted.

Worth checking the base speakers which are very good. The burmester is when you notice the audio quality improvement, just not enough between BOSE and standard for £800 and it’s not a factor in resale from my experience.

Re seats: makes sense, my theory is that the seat is where I’ll spend the most time and wanted it to be the best available with most adjustments, especially as this will be a daily driver. I like the adjustment of the squab length, good for the hip flexors.

Will post some pic for sure!
