I am looking to order a GTS and hoping for a few pointers I have included my code below and looking for any advice people can offer.
I currently have a Macan S Diesel so know a fair bit about them but haven't had time to research any new details.
Only thing I have done is build the car, my code is PLGJCVE1
Looking for any help or advice.
Thanks in advance

Wow! that's an acquired external & internal colour taste, especially coming from your current black exterior one with partial red interior.

As you know with a Macan, the numerous options are all down to personal taste and budget. So have fun with the confusarator.....

Brave choice. I'd add the spare wheel and I really like the surround view cameras that we have on our car.

Yes, the colour choice. As Sir Humphrey Appleby would say "A courageous decision".

However, as many have said before, it's your car and your choice of preference.

Good spec, and I like the thought of owning a Mamba Green Macan, too. I just don't know whether I could live with it in the long term (which is why I've gone for silver.... again...).

I've enjoyed having the surround view camera - it's saved my 21" sport classic wheels from those pesky hidden kerbs in multi-storey car parks more than once. I considered the ioniser and the aluminium gear selector, but then decided to go for automaticall dimming sport design mirrors instead.

Whatever spec you choose, I'm sure you'll love the car.

I have the full Garnet Red interior on mine, but it is black though.

I'm not sure I could pair that with anything but black, white, or GT Silver at a push.

I'd say that with a Mamba paint job, black interior is the only way to go.

As others have said though, personal choice. And those Yanks do have a thing for 'Superman' trim. Sapphire with Garnet interior.

The only advice I can offer is either change the exterior or interior colour. It’s your car though so if you’re happy why worry about what other people think. You did ask though.
