Arrow Picked up my 971 PTT!

I've owned a 2010 PTT, 2014 P4S and now the 2017 PTT. The difference between this and the previous itineration is night and day. No question about it.

Traded in my 2013 CTT with 100K on the dial for this thing. Got a smoking deal on this Panamera that is pretty loaded up. I just wish it had the Adaptive seats.Going to be daily driven 110 miles a day in turn with my M5.

The specs are-
1. Model Designation Painted Jet Black
2. Ionizer
3. Rear Power 8 way seats with memory
4. Power sunblind for rear and side windows
5. 21'' Sport Design Rims painted gloss black
6. Carbon Fiber Interior Package
7. Park Assist front and rear with surround view
8. 4 zone climate control
9. Smoking package
10. Burmester
11. Window trim in gloss black
12. Ambient Lighting
13. Rear USB
14. Premium Package Plus (LCA, Ventilated Seats, soft close doors)
15. LED Matrix Headlights with PDLS plus
16. Ventilated Rear seats
17. Sport Package ( Rear wheel steering, sport chrono package, sports exhaust)
18. Sports exhaust in gloss black.
19. LKA (Lane Keep Assistant)

MSRP- $177,945

Got the black out OEM tailights from Suncoast Porsche on order.

Very nice, congrats and I wish you good luck with it!

With a car that loaded I'm surprised it didn't come with the Assistance Package.

Thanks all! Just got Huper Optik done yesterday and I've put about 400 miles on her in the last 3 days.

What I love about the new PTT is that it carries dual personalities. Where my previous 2 Pans felt more sporty then a luxury cruiser, this PTT kind of splits the nail in the head. When you're cruising along the freeway the suspension is much more supple and the interior is almost too quiet. Toss it into a turn (4 wheel steering at work), or switch it over to sport/sport plus and it just turns into a different animal. Amazing.

With the extra coasting gear of the PDK, I got based on my calculations 20.2 MPG coasting between 70-80 mph. My previous Pan, never got more then 19 overall with my driving style. Hopefully, once everything starts loosening up, I can add another 1 mpg to the overall average.

The interior is just gorgeous. It still has enough buttons and shortcuts where things are still very easily accessible except one thing. The center vents. The center vents can only be controlled via PCM!! This has been the most aggravating thing and I hope Porsche changes this on the refresh coming in 3 years. The PCM controls where the air blows, the height it blows at plus closing and opening of the center vent.

If you guys are on the fence about the new Pan, I suggest go for an extended test drive. You will walk away knowing and feeling that a lot of thought and engineering was put into this model to make significant improvements over the previous generation.

How's the strength of the AC and air it blows from the center counsel and front vents. My 2010 Panny's SUCK.

Do you have 2 zone or the extra 4 zone?? This to me makes a huge difference. I've owned the previous model turbo with 4 zone then I went to the 2 zone in my P4S and you definitely can feel a difference in volume of air and how fast the car cools down with 4 zone.
