On the USA forum a guy posted a question asking is his was the most expensive Turbo with PP, it came in at £86,000.
Needless to say many corrected him.
Spare a thought for anyone wanting said Turbo PP in Singapore where the cost is £230,000 and £1,800 a year road tax.
Expensive Macans
I'm a bit of a cheapskate but doesn't take many options to get the OTR price in that area.
Really happy with my choice of options though so it's not wasted.
£10k less in the bank to be taxed for the benefit of our glorious leaders when I die; What Me Worry?!

Interesting to see who on here has specced up the dearest Macan, we all know how dangerous the confuserator is!
I managed £66,500 on an SD in March 2016 then dropped another 2k plus on a retrofit Sports Exhaust! Do I regret it? Nah.

my SD was £73k, it was spec'd up as a keeper, but I took a bath on it when the GTS was launched and tempted me away, and that one was even more, £79k (option trigger happy + ppf installed) ..
no, i could not have got a turbo with all the options i wanted for the same price (my turbo configs are always £10k over that).
no regrets (except maybe the 21" wheels, which are easily kerbed on london streets)

That must have been a tick every option exercise on your GTS, Dougal! Mine came in at £65k and has plenty of options although I consider it relatively sensibly optioned rather than opulently optioned if you know what I mean.

I've scraped a kerb once already but the tyres on 20" rims stick out enough to protect the rims.DougalDC wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2017 11:37 am my SD was £73k, it was spec'd up as a keeper, but I took a bath on it when the GTS was launched and tempted me away, and that one was even more, £79k (option trigger happy + ppf installed) ..

You might be able to protect the rims more with a different brand of tyre.

Not sure tbh, the fitted tires have a big rubber lip to help protect against kerbing, and i managed 10 months without a scratch, but a couple weeks ago my rear left bounced off the high kerb in a multi story spiral exit, the type of which was built in the 60's and the Macan seems to hate navigating.
I was gutted, and have since then clipped another kerb with the same wheel too, so that wheel will need a re-furb to look good again .

Funny enough I had a play with the conifigurator the other day swapping my spec onto a PP. I wouldn't change much about my build though I would go for full leather. Much as I love the look of the 21s I'm happy with the 20s on mine - the ride and noise are better. I might refinish the wheels in gunmetal reckon that would look good.
This is the build I came up with http://www.porsche-code.com/PJ15Q4G2

They already got the tax as you spent it - VAT is 20%. You can't avoid the tax!Tim92gts wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2017 9:31 am I'm a bit of a cheapskate but doesn't take many options to get the OTR price in that area.
