I've had 2 of these. High performing and unmatched styling.

[@chuckredfearn712]

Nice, balanced review. Thank you.

[@Thankyou_3]

Nice review Jay, I like the dash being analog for the most parts. Love the knobs for headlights and every single hard buttons around the gear shifter. Porsche really knows how NOT to cut back on hard buttons. Thank you Porsche, new Hondas can learn couple of things from Porsche. That is actually pretty impressive gas mileage for the amount power it produces.

[@Modern.Motoring]

Thanks for the kind words! Porsche is moving to haptic glass to replace the hard touch center buttons…not a big fan of that.

[@Jinjee_YamYam]

this 2021 hard buttons will be changed at next 2022 like other models ..

[@johanlittorin2765]

@@Jinjee_YamYam I think this gen Macan is near the end of production and they did a facelift just a couple of years ago, not likely they will do another one. Porsche usually only do one facelift per gen. So the buttons will be gone the next gen.

[@Jinjee_YamYam]

@@johanlittorin2765 they change inside to touch as other models soon. And then next facelift is EV macan

Great review of Porshe Macan!

[@AmericusMaximus]

Informative. Mellow demeanor is pleasant.

[@moeanthony9308]

Impressive Jay. Good review. Is this from Pfaff?

[@Modern.Motoring]

Thank you, my friend! All my vehicles come from the head offices. Porsche Canada reached out a few weeks ago with the offer for a week with the GTS :)

[@moeanthony9308]

@@Modern.Motoring Wow look at you.. That's fantastic. That must be some ride. Hydraulic lift and all. Well connected I see too. No dealer

[@Modern.Motoring]

@@moeanthony9308 I’m very, very fortunate and hard working. There’s an XB7 Alpina and M5 Competition coming this summer…😉

[@moeanthony9308]

@@Modern.Motoring You the man. Wow. That I look forward to. There is no doubting the hard work and contributions. Thank you so much whole heartedly.

[@davidberg3154]

Would you lease or finance. I drive like 35k a year. Thanks

[@ScottParisi]

Good information. Thank you. How did you get the tach only in red? In my 2021 Turbo, my sport chrono, tach and speedometer are all white. I thought it was all dials or none with contrast coloring

[@Modern.Motoring]

You’re welcome! The red tach is how Porsche Canada ordered this vehicle for the media/press fleet.

[@9fiveb180]

You could be an Auctioneer.

[@rushabranawat]

Is it worth to buy the Macan base model ?

[@Modern.Motoring]

It entirely depends on what you want and need from a vehicle. For me, I’d go GTS for my personal reasons.

[@gregwallace9980]

Stelvio is better 😮...just sayin'

[@jpnphom5470]

Wait until you drive it I snow ...AwD is a joke

Only if you’re a chucklefuck and use summer tires, lol.

Porsche doesn't stand behind the quality of their vehicles. The transfer case on 2015 Macan S has failed twice now in only 27,000 miles. This is a known issue which caused Porsche to extend their warranty to 7 ys. Their "improved" transfer case lasted only 2 years 2 months and 9,000 miles. I am out of warranty by 6 weeks and Porsche turns their back on problem and sticks me for $3,200 repair. Don't buy a Porsche w/o extended warranty for entire length of time you expect to own it. #1 rated warranty company - Endurance - won't even sell coverage on Macan. That should tell Porsche and all potential buyers something. Customer experience is far from an expected premium car brand experience.

Porsche braucht ein neues Design so wirkte er langweilig gegen Mercedes AMG ist schöner
