Macan's galooorreee

http://www.porsche.com/canada/en/models/macan/

So I guess this is for sale now? Reason I ask is because in the past three days I've seen 4 of them in RHill alone (my hood and plazas south of me). I know a new car has JUST been released as I go by if asians have already started buying them and taking delivery since I won't bother checking online to know. Same thing with the new c-class...and on and on.



So basically it's a baby cayenne? Not bad looking (front grills are kinda overboard lol, very aggressive front end by the back end is so clean/boring compared to it)....but is it useful? Kinda looks like the old-gen RDX shape. Dat price doe.

Driven both the Cayenne and the Macan, I'd take a Macan any day.

Re: Macan's galooorreee

Was checking out potential replacements for our current x3 (last gen), saw it at the autoshow and was disappointed at how tiny the interior is; despite the outside looks like it's about the size of the x3.

I'm not a tall guy by any means and with my seating position, there's already barely any leg room in the back (i.e. no go for a rear facing car seat). As well, the sloped tail gate pretty much guarantees you can't put anything in the back that's bigger than a golf bag (which is probably what it was meant for anyways).

It's just as useless as the Q3 (probably the same platform anyways).

Will pass.

Re: Macan's galooorreee

Why are you looking to replace the X3? Problems?

And yes the Q3 is the same platform as the Macan, just at double+ the cost.

Thought the Macan was based off the Q5?

of course there are problems, it's an aging bmw (x3) and it rides like wood...he'll be out of it soon enough

but yeah don't buy an rdx i guess, you know, because it's acura lol.

macan looks tiny...even smaller than Q3...but i believe it's in that segment.

what will you replace x3 with? i guess no more subie product? lol
Rexus something? Q3 seems decent...never been in one so dont know of ride or issues with it? can you ball out for a range?

what does a base GLK benz go for these days? (i see tons of those, asians love dem)

we have a '15 CRV on order to replace the shitvic for july, i am peasant so that's all we can afford for now.

Where have you been?
It's been long enough that used ones are popping up now.

http://www.autotrader.ca/a/Porsche/Macan...CPO&orup=3_15_4

It was at the 2013 Toronto autoshow. I couldn't see the hood line when I was inspecting the car, and went like this \:o when we saw this was happening.

Nope, it's been pretty good, other than the driver's seat pan worn through. But I always look around to see what's out there as a replacement -- even though we keep our cars for as long as we can (until someone smashes into us).

More like sold out with a 5 month wait (not sure if it's still that hot but I'm sure its sold out NA wide). I don't really see the new Cayenne too but I think that is also probably sold out with a 6 month wait.

Caymen GT4 is nice but if I were to buy a Porsche, it has to be 911 something.

well i'm talking legit affordable fun to drive porsche for every day peasants like us (one day), not your typical csi 911-shoppin-Drake-mansion-party-till-they-shit-the-bed kinda baller like we know most ppl here are.

911 is way down the road lol.

Re: Macan's galooorreee

If you look at the pricing on Porsche.ca, the GT4 is like $96K pre-tax.
The base 911 (350HP)is like $99K pre-tax

Just sayin'

But if I get a P-car, it will be either S or GTS (GT3 is just straight baller starting at $200K)
