I was gonna purchase 2017 GTS but seen these pics on Russia website. Should I just hold on and wait for 2018 to show up? Any suggestion . Thanks

Nice find. You think this is really a 2018 and not a 2019? The most obvious changes are the sculpted side flanks, more angular headlights and the thinner taillights with the LED strip across the tailgate.

I just ordered a 2017 so have the same trepidation as you do. I am told by my dealer that 2018's (at least GTS models which I am getting) will not be available until October/November. I did a lot of back to back comparing and while I don't dislike the changes, I am not sure they are enough to make me wait that long, or more, to get one. It's a quandary, indeed.

If you're going to spec one for order, you will always be playing a bit of model year roulette, as it's difficult to predict with any certainty when your order will be fulfilled and hence, the model year. Since the changes look relatively modest over the next model year, I suggest you go ahead when ready and not look back.

If you plan to buy whatever might be on the dealer's lot, then you can perhaps time your purchase to a specific model year, but then you'll be having to look/wait until they release the 2018s and some dealer has what you want. Either that, or perhaps compromise on your choices of options, colors, etc.

Wow, looks like someone from the Audi styling department snuck over to Porsche and brought their CreaseMaker 2000 with them. Not a step in the right direction. Took an organic looking vehicle and did their best to make it a busy mess.

Well said. I prefer the current styling to that render. I also don't happen to think that is what it will look like either, and I don't see them releasing a facelifted Macan the same year as the new Cayenne debuts (MY2018)

Uh, the current one is much nicer. Something tells me this isn't it.

Those are renders from last Nov on the supposed Majun (Macan Junior), which would be Q3 sized, but Porsche has said there's nothing below the Macan.

To make it a bit easier for everyone, here is a comparison with my 2017

skiahh

I think it looks more like the Panamera department snuck down and put those side features on there. I kinda like it.

But, it also does look smaller than a Macan, so, who knows?

looks quite a bit smaller than Macan and really photoshopped to me

im waiting until new refresh comes out... perhaps in the summer time?

I hope it doesnt look like that, honestly the previous gen body is far nicer IMHO. And I'm normally an early adopter of the new styles for most of what Porsche does...

I read somewhere that they are coming out with something to compete with Q3.

Porsche CEO already said nothing below the Macan
