Beautiful car, congrats on the purchase!

curious why you have the "Flat 6 exhaust valve simulator" if you don't have an aftermarket exhaust

Thanks, I disconnected the exhaust valve so it stays open and the simulator keeps from throwing a code.

Is there a noticeable audible difference with keeping the valve open? Any downsides to it?

Air suspension in LOW is where it's at.

You should have gotten a Macan GTS so she can bring your food back quicker.

about 8k more as we spec’d our S. Still not worth it.

Looks great!

Which Smoked LED corners did you get? I need to order a set for my soon to be redelivered (post-Euro delivery) GTS.
