Macan GTS

[J-P]

Anybody got any information on when this car is going to launch? I'm guessing it will be announced at Frankfurt in a couple of weeks but surprisingly there appear to be no leaks.

GTS will just be a turbo engine with less power than Macan Turbo?

No I think it will be the S engine tuned up rather than the turbo tuned down.

I've got my name down for one of these (which has had to be prioritised over other toys) but would like to know if I've got to hand over some cash in a couple of weeks or not.

My dad has just bought a new Mecan S 3.0 derv and I have to say it's bloody great so the GTS will be epic

Yes I drove one of those. It was like a jacked up hot hatch, fast and fun. Think the GTS will be a riot, will make a nice combo with the R, when the thing actually arrives! I'm just surprised that there haven't been any recent leaks. This car was first spotted over a year ago now.

Still can't see anything on this. I think there's a good chance it has been delayed. I suspect Porsche are quite busy at the moment what with the new 4 cylinder turbo Boxster and Cayman range as well as the 6 cyl turbo 911. The introduction of a new trim level for the macan probably isn't a priority.

Agreed.
