    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yep its definitely worth considering, annoying and controversial as it is I still think the Offroad 21s look better than the Spyders…i know thats against the Porsche way! šŸ˜‚

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    On after market rims thats not an option for me on a lease and feels like another expense (and hassle) but thanks for the idea šŸ‘Œ

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Appreciate the input here. Yes I configured every model exactly as I would want it, the 4s & GTS is only a small amount difference- hence my post. The 4 is by far the worst option for in terms of price against the others and from my research the range is either the same or marginally better...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Thanks, I like some of the GTS styling but the standard design wheels im really not sure about and it would be a real stretch to the 22 Spyders

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh im likely going for boring black but adding blue seatbelts to give it something interesting. I also considered red but that would of been a wild ā€œsupermanā€ choice against blue in most people’s opinions

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh racetex is a big cost and would a pain to maintain for arguably most people who buy a car in this segment (with kids or dogs) The racetex stitching to match the blue or red exterior looks lovely though but not for an extra £4600.

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh the step up to GTS is quite marginal whereas the jump to Turbo is quite significant

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    It certainly did but the introduction of Lugano blue was a slam dunk for me

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh noted - its a 3 year lease but i like to keep my cars perfect! Lol Ive seen pics of a Guards red macan ev and looks amazing. I actually considered PTS until they introduced these 2 new colours.

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yep i had exactly the same thoughts when seeing that video, its the only video I have found (other than the promotional one) im surprised that more motor journalists haven’t got access or a test drive yet of the GTS when its landing ahead of the Cayenne. What interior did you go for?

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh the options creates a constant circle of decisions - id love a hud (which comes on most cars these days) and maybe RAS but thats just short of extra £3000. Just curious i see you went for lugano blue, great choice, did you take the free part glacier headlight & glacier tail strip? I...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh the MY26 for RWD/4 was updated on the uk config about a week or so ago, I noticed that they added the lux package more recently - it saves you £654 if you were optioning everything on that list. The only thing i wasnt was matrix headlights so getting them at added for £240 would be worth it...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh thats a fair observation- the sports design package is Ā£467 rather than Ā£3k - so thats a saving if you’re into more black gloss and darker features (which seems to be the GTS theme) Just frustrating that those aero wheels cover alot of the red callipers otherwise i would of probably went...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Really good input thank you. Rear Axle Steering isnt standard on any models, do you mean power steering? Yeh agree a small mucky dog & kids munching in the back, the Race-tex is a definite no. This will be my first Porsche and Im really glad they introduced brighter colour options with the...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yep spot on! If im going for the 4s, this gives me the ability to drop a few options that would like to have but i didnt feel were deal breakers and save a few pounds such as: matrix headlights, PTV & 18 way seats. Im fine with the 8 way seats actually. Id be keeping: Air suspension...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Thanks for the input. Yeh ive heard the term sweet spot alot but Im diving into the finer details to make an informed decision- i would agree that the GTS will definitely a better ā€˜drivers car’ no doubt and that’s why its definitely in the mix and not the aero wheels or the front of the car -...

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yep agree, I think now my biggest blocker for just going for the GTS are those wheels, they almost completely cover up the red brake callipers!!

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yep spot on there! Thanks! The GTS doesnt give 20s as an option, whereas the Turbo does - so that explains it. If i decide to go for the 4s I’ll be taking 21s anyway. Like you said im not sure about the looks of GTS vs the 4s - in particular the front. More black plastic cladding in the GTS.

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    Yeh agree, its still a tough decision im sure I won’t regret either of these cars. I did find it interesting that the expected range is slightly less on the GTS than the Turbo - when the number starts creeping under 200 miles it becomes a concern.

    4s vs GTS -what to order??

    The suspension configuration is supposed to be unique to the GTS - thats the whole point. Not sure what you mean by compatible with other models. Yeh as i said by interior options its racetex with coloured stitching- which is a very expensive option and madness IMO for a lease. It starts...
