the "red" calipers in the GTS are just the same as the Cayenne S, just painted.
If you don't care about $$$ buy the calipers, but seeing you have the S and not the GTS, take the time to just take your current callipers off and take them to a reputable shop and get them painted. This can be done in a day, and will cost you 1/5th the cost of replacing with brand new GTS red callipers.

No brainer...

it's only money right?

i think, in the back of your head, you've already are set in what you want to do.
I gave me opinion before.
do what you need to do.

honestly, why so ga ga over the red. it's just red. If pink came on the GTS and TURBO, would you want that?
I'll sell you mine.... who cares.

kidding on selling mine, i need them to stop
but still.

I dont know of any place in the philadelphia area that could paint my existing calipers, so I am thinking of buying the red ones. If I find a place then I will change my mind. As for why I like the red so much....I just think they look great!!!

ok, understandable.
sorry ot be harsh last post.

I guess when you have the red ones, like I have since I've had my GTS, they get old.
I already want something new and flashy.

boring old red calipers.
