I see from elsewhere, some OPC salesman are confirming approx July announcement harpic buttons, some styling changes, some saying Turbo model dropped and GTS getting power increase and price increase,
The GTS / turbo changes make sense to me in that I always thought it was surprising the GTS had the lower suspension but the turbo the higher power better to combine into one top of range model if sensible priced. In the UK with no limit free autobahns, the large premium for the turbo was not good value.

That’s what Hatfield informed me this week aswell.
July build - Sept. delivery. Not sure if I want the large IPad to do everything, I like to touch buttons. But if the facelift has lower suspension and more power, it might appeal to some buyers.

They already combined GTS/Turbo for Gen 1 - it was called the Turbo PP, made even more special by the Exclusive Performance Edition at the end of the Gen 1 run.pmg wrote: ↑Wed Mar 31, 2021 5:30 pm I see from elsewhere, some OPC salesman are confirming approx July announcement harpic buttons, some styling changes, some saying Turbo model dropped and GTS getting power increase and price increase,

Expect they'll do the same this time, except perhaps call it the Turbo S.
The GTS will never be the top of the range.

I’d been told a similar thing by an OPC - haptics being announced in July, no Turbo. GTS the most powerful in the range at that point although there was no mention of any more power and it wasn’t clear when the GTS would be available. It seemed likely that it would be 2022 for the GTS and that there would be some overlap with the new EV at that point.
Personally, I was keen to get a new Gen2 GTS with the buttons, as I love my Gen1 GTS. I’m sure the haptics will be great though and that anyone lucky enough to get one of the new haptic ones will love it. But personally, I wanted more of the Porsche button experience in what will be my last good petrol car before EV technology becomes mainstream.

I currently have a Panamera loaner with the haptic buttons, I much prefer the physical buttons in my Macan. In fact I don’t really like the large touchscreen either. Too many electronics doing things that a standard button could do without going through multiple menus. In the Panamera, the central air vent is even controlled by the touchscreen, madness.
June 2017 Macan GTS in Carmine red with 21” gloss black sport classics, GTS leather package, Air, PASM, PDLS+, pano roof, Sports Chrono, 18 way seats, BOSE, surround view, heated seats front and rear, carbon side blades and carbon interior package.
It was just the same in the Cayanne Coupe loan car I had for a time, look poor covered in finger prints, and very distracting to use on the move, as you have look at what you are doing, there is nothing tactile about them.Kleynie wrote: ↑Thu Apr 01, 2021 9:22 am I currently have a Panamera loaner with the haptic buttons, I much prefer the physical buttons in my Macan.
