Looks amazing! How do you like the PDK?

I love those rims! One of my favorite OEM ones.

Thank you!

Being a 6spd purist and driving manual for the last 16 years over 4 cars I was skeptical going DCT but I have to say the PDK is quite magical. Especially with sports chrono and driving in sports plus mode, the shifts are lighting quick and smooth. I feel like an F1 Driver. I do miss the perfect heel toe downshift, though...

The 20" Satin Black RS Spyder rims are exclusive to the GTS which I love.

I can't help but think that some gold/yellow brake calipers would look really sharp on this.

Mine has ceramics. Yellow was a good choice by porsche and in my opinion always makes the car look better.

Wife wants a Macan, but can't swing that, and a GT4 at the same time! She's been a good sport about that. =P

Looks lovely!

Good work on the front tints, not a fan of the rear only tints look regardless of laws. Looks amazing, only thing I'd change is the black door handles to body color. I'm currently looking for a sapphire blue 981 Cayman S.
