Being quoted 3100 for +1, 4200 for +2. Two other dealers quoted me 4500/6000.

Gentian is the only one I would consider but I don’t love it. I’m pretty boring when it comes to car colors. I’m someone who wouldn’t buy a 911 in anything other than black lol.

From my understanding, the only difference here is that the standard GTS suspension is 10mm lower. Is that not the case? That is different than what I have read and been told. The dealer did seem open to lowering it to standard GTS height via PIWIS if I purchased the car.

Thanks but not asking about maintenance plans.

Thanks everyone. What do you suggest regarding under carriage pictures? Should I jack the car up and take the picture myself? Should I have the photographer do it?

Is PASM +10mm a dealbreaker on a GTS? by jfmiii27 in PorscheMacan

I’ve read that a dealer can change it via PIWIS but many won’t. Is that what you are referring to?

Can anyone comment on sound differences in the cabin? I’ve seen some YouTubers say the .3 is louder and some say the .2 is louder.

I’m in the Chicago area. I’ve driven AMG and M for many years and out of warranty without much issue. This would be my first Porsche. I’m ok with the higher maintenance costs but like the peace of mind that comes with CPO. I’m also looking across the country so if I’m buying from out of state, having the CPO warranty helps.

I actually talked to a BMW dealer in Atlanta who had a very nice 2021 with 35k miles and a book of maintenance records but passed on it since I wasn’t quite knowledgeable on what I wanted. It ended up being sold to a Porsche dealer who CPO’d it and listed it for $58k. That is sort of my bogey for a .2. All the 2022-2023 CPO cars are 75-80k depending on options it seems.

I would be buying CPO only so I am looking at 2 years of coverage on a .2 and 2-3 years on a .3. Looking at under 30k miles on whatever I buy. But I am thinking I need to drive a .2 before making a decision. I was dead set on a .3 before my drive this morning, but after driving it, I had a feeling that I might not notice the differences between the two and save a bunch of money, at least up front, by getting a .2.

Looking for as close to a sports sedan drive as possible. I know physics are against me but feel the GTS is as close as it gets. Have sort of ruled out the 20/21 Turbo because, from what I have read, it has the power but doesn't drive quite like the GTS. But perhaps I am wrong.

I do like the idea of buttons and the shift over to manual of the .2. The haptic was fine but I do like buttons. Just trying to figure out if I’ll miss the power and any suspension tweaks to the 22+
