2015 Porsche Macan Turbo Start Up, Quick Drive, and In Depth Review

[@ssmk93]

Keep on doin what your doing Kyle; the expensive cars you film really motivate me in life and give me hope that maybe one day I'll own one. Thnx.

[@saabkyle04]

Sultan S Thanks buddy that means a lot :)

[@sirvolatile6775]

Sultan S it 40k for the newer model 😅

[@teenagecarlover1567]

You can get one for less than 30 grand👍

[@angelcorniel2952]

Kyle, your reviews are the most informative I have seen, and the fact that you do all types of vehicles is a plus. Thank You!

[@JonasHorn]

This steering wheel is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!

[@trxnic97]

I love the dash/center console design. Everything is laid out so well

[@tlfallday]

I've had 2 Cayenne's, a hybrid and a turbo. Great vehicles. The Macan seems very similar but has a more aggressive sporty look. I think I might take one on a test drive..

[@DCookStaVideo]

Seriously, best clock ever.

[@breydonkokas6778]

Hey Kyle. I don't understand why people are hating on you for reviewing expensive cars. Expensive cars are the most exciting. I think it would be boring if all you reviewed were fords, chevs, dodges, Toyotas, nissans etc. BTW your channel is the best on KZbin for car reviews. No one ales can seem to get them right. Keep it up :)

[@vanii9]

I love all your reviews and I'm looking into buying a 50-60 thousand dollar car and your reviews are so much help love it

[@eatonuter7113]

As a Car Enthusiast, I was really not that impressed with the Macan at first, now after watching this review (as well as others), I like the Macan a little more, but I would appreciate if Porsche will update it for 2018/19 so it'll compete better with the upcoming Audi Q5.

[@mayadachi]

Great review! Great job, man. Super cool car. Went on the Porsche website and did the build-your-own Macan car configurator. The Macan is absolutely BEAUTIFUL in the 21" 911 Sport wheels and with Impulse Red Metallic as the exterior color. After I factored in all options I wanted, I was looking at an MSRP of around $87K. This Macan is much cooler than the Cayenne. Must buy, if you're in the market for this category of Crossover Utility Vehicle.

[@someone.............]

Another great review! Oh by the way, since The name Macan is derived from the Indonesian word for tiger, if you want to pronounce it like Indonesian, the word 'c' is spelled like c in 'chocolate' or simply like 'ma-cha-n'. Sorry for my bad English. I hope you can barely catch up what I mean :p

[@mrlemonmonkey]

***** Hey Kyle, Not trying to critique, just wanted to let you know something. There's three ways of opening the tailgate. The rear wiper mount has a small button under it that will power it open if it's unlocked or the key is near. It's something not many people know. Love the review and love the channel. I've been subscribed for 4 years (I think) now and have loved watching the collection grow. Keep up the awesome work.

[@findlestar1385]

Wish I could afford this vehicle...but I love your videos..They are stellar....

[@taureantucker8582]

I kinda like this, looks better than the Cayenne, only smaller and better proportioned. And thanks ***** for another quality review.

[@gandalf7292]

More beautiful than the Cayenne even if it's smaller

[@gandalf7292]

Ugh here we go again with these fuckin ugly side markers.

[@letterpool]

Nice review. I will say these look a lot nicer in person. I'd love to get one.

[@hermannbrumm138]

As someone who has driven Audi's most of his life, readers will be surprised to find my take. It is fair to say the Macan is by far the best luxury compact SUV in its segment. By comparison, the Audi Q5 3.0 (V6) offers 272 hp with an exterior and interior that dates back nearly six years (with some minor refinements). The Macan S has underneath its hood a V6 twin-turbo producing 340hp with a base price only slightly higher than the Q5 (49,900). The PDK (Porsche's double clutch transmission) is far superior to Audi's traditional 8-speed transmission. The gears transition quicker and smoother. One look at the vehicle's interior and you'll be reminded by the benchmark of sports cars (the 911). The combined effect of sport and luxury is magnificent. If you are in the market for a compact luxury SUV, the Macan is the optimal choice.The hurdle is getting one as they are (rightfully so) very difficult to come by currently at dealerships.

[@xJDaRR]

The macan is suppose to be porsches affordable suv and people complain?

[@saabkyle04]

xJDaRR This is the internet after all

[@thetrickster2590]

***** HI KYLE!!!!! hope u say hi back.....o.o

[@papayaman123]

value proposition my friend, this car starts at 49k...

[@anothersiguy]

That's the most kickass spare tire I've ever seen...

[@DiecastFreak]

I love how when he films a Ferrari or a Koenigsegg people will comment how much they loved it and yet this $50,000 SUV is where people complain about how he doesn't film main stream cars. I like his videos whether it be a Toyota yaris or a Bugatti Veyron.

[@jttx4]

The base price for the "S" is $49K if the only colors you want are black or white. Gotta love that Porsche options list!

[@VolkswagenGamer]

I really need this car right now. I was hesitant when they first announced it but its better than the Cayenne IMO.

[@dewayne51]

I think this is probably the best around car on sale to date!

[@slidas18]

Hey Kyle. You have showed the smart key access on many, many cars now. I think that instead of putting it in the video every time, do a major video where you show how it works on different makes. That's my opinion at least :)

[@Lukasdw02]

Epic car. I saw quite a few of those at the beginning of 2015. Why? Because we live in Germany, where they're a little more popular.

[@delcosspdfreek]

This an excellent review that has answered all my questions. Fantastic Job Sir !

[@sputumtube]

This is a thing of beauty from every angle. Appearance-wise Porche got this spot on. If it were possible to get the unparalleled interior trim and finish levels of that (otherwise hideous) Bentley Bentayga married to this car it would be damn near perfect in every possible way. I still love it just as it is though.

[@davidvu3988]

Kyle I love your videos and was wondering if you could make more Porsche videos?

[@ethangershenberg9061]

In case you guys didn't know, the macan s is also a turbo it just has 340 horsepower versus the turbo's 400 horsepower

[@marc1093280]

Good review. Nevertheless I still prefer the Range Rover to any luxury SUV on the market because they really look and feel nice and luxurious and Range Rovers are pretty exclusive.

[@chandlerhaney9145]

Lol Porsche Plano is where my dad bought his Cayenne Turbo. Love Dallas! I'm here right now!

[@Nitrotech23]

The steering wheel is awesome!!

[@man_on_wheelz]

Every time I see this on the streets my mind immediately goes "Oh so Ferrari finally made an SUV" then I remember the last time I seen one it was just a Porsche

[@Cuseball121]

Hey Kyle, when do you think you'll be able to get your hands on a 2015 Mustang? Love the videos man, keep up the good work.

[@Revitalyzed]

17PSI? Not bad for a CUV. Also, the BOV would be amazing if it were a tad bit louder. It's a bit hard to hear, but it has a nice sound to it.

[@munirbenjenk3664]

You can also open the rear hatch by a button under the wiper housing on the rear window. A very nice review though!!!

[@MoAV15]

25:20, there is another way to open by pressing the button on the rear wiper which is a smart feature.

[@hooverduece2]

Good job on all your videos ***** forget the haters man keep up the good work.

[@restrictionx9222]

I saw two Macans on my way to a party. There was a blue one on the highway and a white one at a hotel. Pretty nice cars.

[@dsilvap]

I see Macan's/Cayenne's everyday, really nice cars

[@restrictionx9222]

ghost Silva They really are.

[@trevorrose9893]

You definitely should do a review on the hennessey venom gt!! ...that is if you can get ahold of one or even find one!?!?

[@sinoperture]

Not sure about Porsche but in my audi the revs sound different and the spool up is more when you do it in neutral with the handbrake on versus park mode.

[@AND838]

hey Saabkyle04! always enjoying your uploads thanks for another one...thought my all time favorite always gonna be the sister chevy cruze one! keep it up! martin

[@moesakib5471]

This Porsche Macan is just awesome!

[@gregorytrane7828]

I drove and owned German vehicles of every manufacturer for 20-25 years before buying a truck for utility. Plan on buying another German vehicle after this one is paid off, as a second vehicle. In my experience and opinion nothing drives, sounds or has the build quality that Porsche does and will purchase one in the future. Good review.

[@BigSurfJJ]

There is a cuv with nearly the same accleration as the macan (bmw x4 35d). And the GLA 45 AMG which is just as fast, but a bit smaller (derived from the A-Class)

[@RUFFRYDER909]

Hi Kyle. Great review as always. Just wondering when are u gonna post the NSX review?

[@stang281]

Maybe you have already addressed this, but why is it that the boost gauge indicates 0 PSI when given revs? Is that due to some driving mode?

[@TheGetawayer]

That was a great review, Kyle ! Thanks ! I haven't actually driven the Macan myself and I don't really like the idea of Porsche building SUVs in general, but I might have to check one out myself to see if the driving characteristics would impress ;)

[@stevenwpf1]

It would be convenient to provide the MPG in the description also!

[@JoeSmith-nu8oo]

I plan on getting the non-turbo model as soon as mcdonalds starts paying 15.00 an hour LOL

[@IveGotNothinToSay]

I want to press all of dem buttons.

[@dory4498]

IveGotNothinToSay saaame

[@Chomper454]

Can you do a video on the Infiniti Q50S?

[@bismillahmashallah]

Looks realllllly good in person

[@GTechno13]

My top requests are (when available) the 2015 Mustang GT and Lexus RC-F (and RC350)

[@adriannevarez7759]

i love the way the macan looks

[@zacharybray8248]

Hey kyle could you do possible the new huracan? If not i would also like to see the new Mercedes-Benz AMG GT, that would be great if you could do that!

[@aufderweide1]

i have a question, this might sound stupid, but lets say your car is standing in your drive way and your door is only 5 meters away from the car, you put your keys on a table and the car is in the range of the key, so a thief can come into the car and drive away

[@jdstarek]

Fantastic, detailed review...well done.

[@The123456789Fail]

Another informative and interesting video Kyle! Keep up the great work!

[@VkRmotorsport]

I feel like the general shape of the dash and air vents design is kind of simple, very square contrasting with a curvy exterior

[@SoLA489]

Maybe someone can answer my question.. How does one finance a car this price? Do owners put a large downpayment? Or do they fork to pay $1K a month for 5 years?

[@alecmartin0180]

The cayenne is my dream daily car, also a tesla model s.

[@MattUK36]

Great review as usual.

[@FerrarifanOls95]

Great sound from the V6! Did a review of the 458 Speciale yesterday

[@Theonestrongbusleader]

Still a amazing SUV for me to buy one Kyle.

[@Chukuman00]

BRUH CAN YOU PLEASE DO AN AVENTADOR ROADSTER, I THINK YOU SHOULD DO MORE CONVERTIBLE SUPERCARS. Thanks man have a good day

[@Chukuman00]

*****

[@w7hm]

Hey kyle could you do a review and test drive of the new BMW x5. I would love to, by the way, great video as always

[@Frostbreath24]

Could you get the chance of doing the 2014 or 2015 Mercedes S class coupe?

[@christophertice537]

Super helpful vid! Just got mine yesterday. Thanks bro!

[@mcfersson]

As always, wonderful work from you, now please the Boxster GTS ;)

[@kabuterrimondw5919]

Macans are really common in my country. But not the turbo, just the standard cheapest one

[@CodyKloepfer]

Interesting car! Thanks for the review Kyle.

[@DelmarGamers]

You should do the 2015 gtr nismo. My favorite car for now :)

[@grigorissozos281]

Nice! Please do a video for 2015 Porshe Cayenne Turbo!

[@breezy2beast]

Was wondering if you can do a ford raptor 2014? Thinkin of getting that or a 2014 silverado

[@fredschriks8554]

Thank you kyle. was waiting for this one !! 😆

[@kanob6440]

Yay more cars I can't afford lol

[@saabkyle04]

Zavon Beed I don't know how anyone can complain about videos of cool cars. Isn't KZbin about having fun and seeing different types of cars?

[@SearchEast2069]

***** Kyle you of all people should know that KZbin + cars = hate, hate and more hate. Its a sad aspect of our society.

[@saabkyle04]

Antwon Jenkins Yes it is, I have to respond to these comments far too often. Of course, Zavon may have meant something else by it, but still...

[@darogers125]

***** If you were only doing videos of cars that costed $20,000, then people would complain that its too boring. Just keep doing what you're doing man!

[@saabkyle04]

Kyle Rogers Exactly, I feel I've done well so far, the only thing to do is keep going :) Thanks!

[@MrJPablo10]

Why are the braking tail lights hazards as well? I've gone to several Porsche agencies in my country and the hazards in every Macan I've tested are the turn signals and not the braking lights.

[@JackRR15]

+GBDJ_45 Probably because it's US. I think US regulations makes it to not use dedicated signal lights but the brake lights instead. It's kinda dumb.

[@Lightunseen]

Interesting looking vechicle, would get one in diesel but here they are too expensive. Cheapest model starts at 120 000 in us dollars :/

[@DrEvilAce]

Awesome videos keep up the good work

[@winstonoko777]

#The reason I used to love and watch saabkyle04's video was because he used to always review variety of cars both old, used and new but now, he hardly posts any video and when he does its a video of expensive luxury cars that the masses don't care about cause we can't own. Don't mess up what you've built on this channel kyle.# Thank you

[@saabkyle04]

Winston Oko I'm not sure how you can say that and see the videos I've uploaded this year. I've uploaded classics, economy cars, older late models, icons, cult classics, exotics, muscle cars, SUVs, Trucks, etc. You must not be following my uploads, but then again, I have no way of knowing that. What you don't realize is that I'm just one guy, you have no idea how hard it is to juggle everything from traveling, editing, filming, etc. When I travel out of state, I cannot upload. When I am wrapped around my personal life and responsibilities I cannot upload. What I'm trying to say is that I always give 110% of my abilities when I'm able. The fact is that I would be a fool to pass up opportunities to film rare an exciting cars to film something anyone can walk down the street and see. I will ALWAYS upload a variety of exciting cars that have a story to tell. I have built this channel from nothing and now have over 570,000 subscribers. I think I've done a pretty good job. It's not about affording them, obviously I can't afford most of them, but it doesn't take away from the fact that it's fun to check out...

[@BigSurfJJ]

***** It would be nice if you would review more smaller cars (like the vw up!) because they are actually pretty popular and affordable.

[@saabkyle04]

BigSurfJJ We don't have those over here, sorry bud.

[@BigSurfJJ]

***** But maybe of the new toyota yaris?

[@saabkyle04]

BigSurfJJ I'm going to a Toyota event in October for the new Camry/Yaris/Sienna and will shoot some video of them while I'm there.

[@marcusmclean2864]

That engine is sick for a suv and that startup is also sick and im 10

[@subway5907]

Think I'm gonna invest in one of these!

[@auteil22]

Nice report as usual. Congratulation and thank you.

[@richieasian]

2:30 ... that looks terrible! Porsche is trying so hard to stay true to a tradition that most owners probably don't even understand or notice...

[@jimdayton8837]

+lovin f30 Agreed!

[@rugrat343]

Right. I hate cars that have the ignition switch on the left

[@LandOfTheFreeMediaBlogspot]

***** Great review Kyle. When I first heard about this new offering from Porsche a while back, I immediately knew right off the bat that this Crossover SUV would be an incredible competitor to the other offerings from other Luxury auto brands such as Lexus and Audi. In addition, how did your trip in North Texas go overall? - Michael Land

[@saabkyle04]

Land Of The Free Media It was great, filmed a lot of cool things, but now I need to hustle to upload them. SO much content to go through :O

[@SciroccoThePunisher]

great as always!

[@Foxie635]

Wow, thank you for the review. Much better than most.

[@Barobran92]

I don't like to give suggestions because I know you do what you can, that being said I would love to see a 2015 Hyundai Sonata, just putting that out there if you ever have the opportunity to shoot at a Hyundai dealer :)

[@javelinwolfsburg3595]

Hey Saabkyle04 could you do a 2006-2008 BMW 7 Series.

[@YAKYAKYAK]

If you're planning on buying one, I really wouldn't. Expensive to fix and often breaks.

[@juliodiaz4853]

How do you make the steering wheel go up after turning off the car?

[@RAJohnson713]

I love the look of this car

[@99destroyer11]

what glasses do you use for the pov version or do you use a regular camera?

[@johngaudet6316]

I seen a dark purple Macan with tan interior, Wow it was sweet.

[@dominicanoativocastro5665]

Thank you for the information, I like all yours videos!!!

[@jonathanashbeck3740]

Same, I hate all the negative review on the modern videos he does.

[@karlsilva344]

Another awesome review!...

[@NDHvideos]

2015 GMC Duramax Denali would be cool. The new Colorado and Canyons just came out too!

[@navidakbar1993]

Thank you , what a thorough review.

[@Nelle996]

Hey Kyle, i was wondering if you can do a review of new Lamborghini Huracan ?? By the way, great Macan review :-)

[@XXMETAL4LIF3XX]

whats the point of cooled and heated seats at the same time? or is it just ventilated. i notice this on a few models.
