No worries I undertsand. By any chance could you make adjustments to the build and show me a better alternate option?It has problems . Its amazing how you managed to pick the cheapest essential items (like 8 way seats and leather package vs full leather) and loaded the car with so much junk that it prices near a GTS .
I could tear down each piece and why the sum total of all of them are not worth it on an S . If I were a dealership GM I would want 10K deposit . .
I hate to be so harsh .. but you have yet to spend a penny . I did you a favor.
Thank you. by any chance could you show me the build of your car?thats beauty of porshe you can have the car the way you and then other people in fam can have opinions.
I will not configure my car this ( mine is already on port enroute to my dealership) .
i am just saying nicely what @yrralis1 said
Check my signature... thats hwat i have done and i will do..bec as @yrralis1 said... if u go ham on s you go GTS zone...Thank you. by any chance could you show me the build of your car?
Looks great I will put in mind the suggestion you guys madeCheck my signature... thats hwat i have done and i will do..bec as @yrralis1 said... if u go ham on s you go GTS zone...
I will, but it won’t be till later. I need to be at my computer rather than my iPhone. I would eliminate some things and add others. For example, all of those performance parts are standard on a GTS. If you want that package that’s really the way to go. It would put you at 92K with modest options . I know that number because I built one already as an example on this forum somewhere. I do have to go, but I will come back to this thread.No worries I undertsand. By any chance could you make adjustments to the build and show me a better alternate option?
I just went through a similar process. For how much you are paying you should really consider moving to the GTS and taking the standard performance features that it brings. The “shiny” elements will not improve the performance. Also, IMHO, theGTS will likely hold long term value better.I recently bought a new porsche and was wondering if there is anything wrong with the build.
I strongly recommend you NOT to listen who saying "with that money, you are GTS territory, then go to GTS.", if you go to GTS, you would end up paying close to or above $100k, then you are in Cayenne or 911 Territory. I suggest you look into your build again, you chose Jet black for exterior but chose Exterior package in exterior color and high gloss black, door handles in high gloss black which doesn't make sense because it won't give you that much different worth that money. Puddle light projectors also can be easily purchased and installed by you so, if you want save cost for now, you can skip it. It looks like you want make your car stealth, but still you didn't add cleared taillights, change red caliper to black, this build just mixed and mismatched, and you gave up many practical and convenient options as well.I recently bought a new porsche and was wondering if there is anything wrong with the build.
8 way is comfort seats. This is Macan S. If it was macan base, I would go with 8 ways, no SC like smooth comforting ride machine. It just not make sense you not choose sports seat for 375hp V6 vehicleDoesn't the 911 come with 4 way seats as standard? Why all the 8 ways hate.
You really have to think about all those "show" options.....eg. gas cap, porsche in the headrest. Someone suggested not getting the thermal glass...if you live in a hot area (south florida, ...), it does make a difference (I've had it on 3 macans after buying the first one without it). Get the premium + package, drop all the race-tex, puddle lights stuff (you can add them yourself for 1/2 the price in 1/2 hour aftermarket). Focus on driving stuff, not fluffy stuff that only you will ever notice...like the special $500+ Porsche badging on the back.
Here's my suggestion: Macan S | Porsche Car Configurator .... $10K less
I like wood (no charge) but black is good. Surround view really helps in tight spots. Sit in the 14 way and 18 way seats....they are very different...pick the one that feels the best to you...more isn't always better..
The seat designs of the 911 are completely different from those in the Macan. I don't think the Macan shares its seat designs with any other model. The Macan has had the same style seats since its inception in 2014/2015. It has more to do with the shape and bolstering than the amount of adjustment points.Doesn't the 911 come with 4 way seats as standard? Why all the 8 ways hate.
None of the seats are bad. I have had all three I just don’t feel an $87,000 build that seats are a place to make compromises.Doesn't the 911 come with 4 way seats as standard? Why all the 8 ways hate.
Here's my GTS build @ $91,560, $1k less than what you spec'd, without 18 ways and body-colored side blades:I will, but it won’t be till later. I need to be at my computer rather than my iPhone.

Yet harshness came easy. In reviewing the tenor of too many yrralis1 posts, does being a member for near 10 yrs confer some kind of boorishness or just self importance?It has problems . Its amazing how you managed to pick the cheapest essential items (like 8 way seats and leather package vs full leather) and loaded the car with so much junk that it prices near a GTS .
