GTS has landed...

Was having some warranty work done on my wife's Cayenne S and caught this in the showroom (pics from my iPhone) - sincerely the best looking SUV I've ever seen...options on this one included alcantara seat inserts, pano roof, porsche crest in headrests. Sticker was 89K, supposedly the first GTS in CA.

This is def. my wife's next SUV...so hot, want to touch the heini.

The side bolsters feel great as does the alcantara. Even the rear seats (left and right) have the upgraded side bolsters...

Talking

back here in india , they have started advertising this car in nordic gold.... it's available since the past 2 - 3 months or so..... but this is definately NOT the car for indian roads.... reasons :-
1.) 24mm lowered stiffened sports suspension
2.) 21 inch wheels with low profile tyres
3.) sports seats without any cooling (it gets as hot as 45 degrees celcius here)
anyways the car looks gorgeous cant wait to see a few real life on the road pics of a cayenne gts in gts red or nordic gold

and does porsche offer the full sized spare wheel at the back of the cayenne gts???

price is getting to close to a base turbo, and you can get discount on turbo but not on GTS.

There's already one on Ebay. Check Item # 360028677052.

Car looks good, but not as practical. Alcantara is no good if you have kids; rear seat now only fits two, and of course off road ability is limited.

The GTS is very nice, and it looks great. However, how much more can you justify over a well optioned Cayenne S (moonroof, 21" wheels, full leather, sport seats, PASM, PCM, etc.)? Once you get the GTS well optioned, it's approaching CTT territory.

I was quoted 8k off sticker on a turbo...PM me if you want dealer contact info. And I agree the GTS price is to close to a discounted turbo.
