Macan S - Ultimate driving pleasure

I love my Macan S it drives so well and I treasure every moment of it. For the features it’s fairly priced. The only thing you should be prepared is high cost of servicing every time you take it to a Dealer you end up paying $2-3 k minimum..

The Plus of Porsche Engineering

A Macan S has become my daily driver after two VW Golf Rs. On the cusp of 80, I still wanted a car with a sporting character, but something that was blessedly quiet and that could accommodate easily a couple of friends and their golf clubs. I considered an Audi SQ5 which nominally is a better buy but rejected it as too SUV-like in its driving characteristics. I tested a Mercedes GLC AMG43 and found it much too truck-like, and especially so the one I drove with 21” wheels. The Macan S, however met my needs perfectly. For its weight, it is exceptionally nimble with a very tight turning radius. It is bank-vault quiet at speed with none of the annoying artificial engine sound that is pumped into my wife’s Audi S4. On European-like macadam roads, it rides with barely a ripple. On broken pavement, the ride is firm but never harsh. I intentionally purchased a Macan S with 19” wheels and without air suspension. I also will heap praise on the comfort of the Macan’s seat and the quality of its Bose sound system, the quality something of a surprise given the fact that the system has only 10 speakers. Fit and finish are impeccable. The car’s only real negatives, however, is the back seat’s tight legroom and price. While mine equipped with the Premium Plus package and Adaptive Cruise Control priced out at “only” $72K, it is plainly lacking in the many bells and whistles that are common in many cars costing considerably less.

Without an upgrade on the power seats adjustment is limited. At this price I would expect a fully adjustable power seat on the driver’s side

Wow,great cornering,smooth ride ,comfortable.A bit of a gas guzzler at 22 mpg but then I drive fast and it goes fast .I often drive at 140 m.p.h. Great car for long trips or winding country roads ,handles well off road too.Very comfortable.. bought in January of 2021 and now have 19400 miles on the vehicle, so far so good. Tech is poor on voice. MACAN S 2021.

We regret buying a Porsche Macan

We have had multiple issues with the Macan. It makes a loud noise when driving over 65 mph. The driver's seat had to be replaced but the dealership did a poor job, resulting in pain when sitting on the seat. And Porsche Corporate does not stand behind its vehicles, they direct everything to their dealerships and they don't help/intervene when there is a problem with the dealership. Worst decision I made was buying a Porsche Macan S.
