Default Sad Day... Macan is Gone :-/

avoiding the snow this year entirely and going to spend 3 months in the caribbean... didn't need a car sitting around so i sold the macan

new owner wanted the windows tinted and the wheels redone black (from the satin bronze).. i think it looks good... he had a turbo on order but having owned both models... i kinda nudged him in the way of the S... which i feel is the better buy, especially if you chip it to 420hp..

ironically the base cayenne launched today so that will be a perfect replacement.. it's just too bad that porsche delivers its new AWD vehicles in march-May... versus when we actually need them in Oct/Nov..

her waiting patiently for the truck to pickup.

Sorry to hear you had to let it go, but glad to hear you got out pretty much whole.

And I hope you burn and die of melanoma you Caribbean-visiting bastard.

Let us know how it works if u have it done. Would really like to see the Dyno b4 and after the re-tune. My just a guess is they can do 420 and that 500 is possible from the Turbo.

the Satin Bronze was the better look. It made the car.

From Jakob @MTM:

the canbus system is different so we expect the tune within the next 3 weeks to be completed.

agreed, the new owner wanted both stocks and 22's gloss black... not ideal but everyone has diff taste.. the bronze was subtle and looked great.
