Hello from the New owner
Excited to join the P-family!
Was a happy owner of multiple BMWs, starting back in 2002 with an e46 M3, then e90, 120d (Europe), e92 335is, F30 335i, F80 M3, F80 M3C, G20 M340i, F87 M2C, G80 M3. All were 6MT except for the 120d, 335is and M340i, and all were trouble free and great machines.
Traded in my G80 for a 2023 Macan GTS with 12k miles on it.
Funny how it happened... Made a decent deal with the local Porsche dealer on a brand new 2024 Macan S, loaded at MSRP of $97,220 for the sale price of 91,000. However, they could not take my BMW lease in and sent me over next door to the BMW dealer to appraise my vehicle and see if they wanted to take it off my hands (long story, but my lower back and hips were crying for 10 months getting in and out the g80 and I decided to look at the option of something fun and easier to get in and out).
Walked into the Bimmer dealership and first thing I noticed was this, looking brand new, inside and out, Macan GTS, listed at $90k. I negotiated that down by $5k, and negotiated a decent deal to break my 36-month lease on the g80 and the rest is history!
Looking forward to some fun times on this forum!

It was hard for me with the G80 and 1200 miles…took me 2 months! But eventually got to experience the WOT…

Congrats and welcome to the brand and Macan forum! Many of us here are repeat offenders (see my signature) and really enjoy the utility and sport of the Macan. It's a GREAT ride!
Please post a pic or two!
