2018 Macan
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.

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