Macan Turbo S parked alongside a SD in Ikea car park today. Serious piece of kit...

Interesting parking style of both cars. I admit a do the same at times to avoid sad door dings from "family" cars at places like the Swedish IKEA. On the picture I believe that the quad exhaust pipes on the Turbo S models where silver/metal and unique to that model. Or has the owner bespoke the black GTS style pipes?

I think it's all 'bespoke'. No such thing as a 'Macan Turbo S' in the UK as it obviously is on GB plates. Think the guy has bought himself an S badge from somewhere (probably Fleabay). The tailpipes are simply the black option on the PSE, I have them on mine, not as blingy as the stainless version.

Another owner with fanciful badging, but everything else is on the options list.

If this is a Turbo, then you get that from the "Turbo Exterior Pack."
But even with a base model, you can get it with "SD pack high gloss" + "tinted rear lights" + "sport tailpipes in black"

Quite true Goron, my SD has all that. I think maybe the guy bought a PP without realising it would look the same as a Turbo then was a bit pissed off. Just looks a bit 'Halfords' to any Porsche buffs though.

The S looks dodgy, it's off centre.

That would annoy me every time I saw it!

At least he didn't buy the G and the T letters too.

It amazes me how people think they can get away with this. Anyone who knows Porsches will just call him a Knob.

And yes, it being off-centre just makes it look worse.

Why add an S to a Turbo, strange logic, and yes a bit of a knob. I did however change my chrome S to this. Accurate positioning is essential, pretty sure it's good. Badge came from the Porscheshop, a new item. Surely I'm not a knob???
