I like the look as well. Much more subtle than all the crazy swishes and other patterns other manufacturers are going to with their LED character lighting.

All cars have the 4-point DRL. The differrence is that with the standard halogen headlights on the macan S and Diesel S come halogen 4-point DRLs, while with bi-xenon option or standard on the Turbo they come as LEDs. The Turbo's headlights on auto show weren't any different from the ones in the Macan S next to it.

Fog lights integrated into the lower front fascia.

However, I asked it the Porsche people at the LA Auto show as well as my salesperson back here in Switzerland, but both confirmed that all Macans get the 4-point signature lighting in the headlights. That's all I know...
All three Macans on the L.A. Auto Show had the 4-point lights. Two Macan S (both sapphire blue) and a black Turbo.
