Be aware that Porsche recommends replacing the whole bumper for the assistance systems to work properly. Respray is not approved at least for the rear bumper, IDK about the front one.
I think most reviewers agree that GTS + 22" can be too much.
GTS + 21" should be fine (I hope).
Problem is 21" Macan Design wheels do not look good in real life.
This colour does not pair well with other trim elements.
So the only choice left is Macan Turbo wheels.
Same goes for Taycan, the...
@aks Thanks for this, great insight! Ordered mine with 21" and I wonder how much will it impact the ride quality - the 22" was a bit too much on the GTS.
I get it, sometimes it's not possible to replace the car during the lease term and Porsche is not willing to help with that. In fact they do anything possible not to do that and cover their base in case of a lawsuit (see the bulletin about front suspension cracking sounds - "it's by design")
I...
Hi, have any of you done first service / maintenance?
In my case after 1,5 years and 40k kms there was a popup saying the cabin air filter needs replacing.
Car was at the shop and total was a little over 1k EUR for:
- Additional inspection of water drains
- 40k km service inspection
-...
There is a thread about this:

There is also a bulletin about this:

Might be some other thing but first check this out.
TL;DR...
For those who had a chance to compare 4/4S and GTS - do you find the GTS makes the car less "wobbly" (what I mean by that is the 4/4s tosses you left and right when going on uneven surface)?
I find the suspension firmer but it reduces the wobbling effect which for me at least contributes to a...
It's a great result, for those observing less keep in mind it's not only tires but also the road - different highways have different compounds and friction differs.
There was an interesting segment of the Out of spec review of the GTS - the hardware is not different, it's just the tuning. So basically you pay the premium for what could have been standard on the base model but wasn't so that the company can charge you extra. This is very common in many...
Well sorry this discussion started with guys asking for "VIN's of the cars being sold for these prices…" - so here you go, it's easy, in my area there are many similar cars to choose from. All I'm telling is it depends on the market. There may not be any cars like this in Orange County ;) but...
As for the discounts, here is a brand new Taycan GTS worth 806k PLN offered on the official website for 677k (see the description) so that's 16% off the MSRP and this is just what's advertised, you will get more than 20% on this one and this is a GTS...
I got 8% on mine custom ordered during launch time - so that's not true.
I agree however it was always <10%.
Now it changed for Macan and especially Taycan in a big way - in Poland at least.
Well this is also not true, EU and emerging markets are all on this level and on 3x the volume so it's...
