Default Pulled the trigger!

Picked up a CPO'd 2015 Macan Turbo yesterday. I thought my search was going to take a lot longer but the perfect one (well, almost) popped up on Friday and I reserved it. Drove to the dealership the next day and picked her up in a relatively painless transaction.

It was a little more than I wanted to spend but the car comes with all the bells and whistles so I thought why not splurge a little. It's white with black/red garnet interior. Also has Burmester, air suspension, torque vectoring, sport chrono, park assist, carbon steering wheel, premium plus package, even a fire extinguisher and a lot more. Only thing that's missing is PSE but that's not a biggie for me. All in all, the original msrp was $105k and I think I got an amazing deal on it.

Loving this thing so far! And thanks to everyone who helped out on my search in my other thread.

Man I love red interiors. After 3weeks with this base loaner I’m seriously considering a GTS or turbo cpo for the wife.

Yup. I was surprised when I saw the build sheet. The previous owner went all out. Luckily for me, he was itching for a 911 Turbo S and traded it in.

The interior is even more stunning in person. You/your wife won't regret it. It's a great car. I actually like it more than my 991 (blasphemy?), but I'm still in the honeymoon phase.

Fickle and ADHD-afflicted new Porsche buyers are a Godsend to the used market

So, next time you're on a good highway or some smooth twisties, press the Sport button (Sport mode), then the PASM button (Sport+ chassis mode) and then the Air Suspension button (lower the suspension.)

You'll be in for a treat.

Nice catch. You're really going to enjoy this car. Aside from the Burmester upgrade and some color/trim it's the same as mine. Three years in I still get a grin on my face and enjoy every drive. You will, too.

Thank you. So far I've put nearly 200 miles on it in my 24 hours of ownership and have loved every single one.
