And it's done. Picked up a lovely '15 Turbo today with some notable features:
  • PASM + AS
  • ParkAssist
  • Adaptive Cruise Control
  • Premium Plus
  • Adaptive 18-way seats
Got it for what I thought was a great deal, under 40K miles, and CPO. Lovely machine, guess the 997 will be sitting idle for a little bit while we enjoy the Macan!

I'm in Atlanta if you find anything local to me. Would be happy to go eyes on for you.

I'll also be in Orlando, FL next week if you spot something there.

We have a '17 Macan. Base with options. Original MSRP of around $63k. We have done 26k miles on it. Trouble free, fun to drive, comfortable, and a nice set of features. You've made a great choice for sure and good idea to buy CPO.

Let me know if I can help in any way.

Nice decision. I’m a GTS man, myself, and wouldn’t have it any other way. But I agree, having options in the garage is absolutely acceptable.

Congrats! Pics or it didn’t happen! You’re going to love it!

As my ‘16 S is bumping against 40k miles, I’m looking to what’s next and am circling right back to another. I’ll probably go CPO with this one if I do it if I can find the right car at the “used car factory”. Alternately, as my new car is already a bit too noticeable/controversial in my town and social circle (not to mention my house), I might go in a totally different non P-car direction. But having the Thule rack and winter wheels/tires, etc for the Macan already makes it tempting to stick with it. I’m even leaning toward the 4 banger if one is kicking around as part of the domestic justification. (the 911 already came with a spouse adjusted markup of a new kitchen!)

A little bit late, but managed to find some time to drive around Angeles Crest today.

Congratulations - Put a Cobb Tuning flash on it and it becomes a seriously fast vehicle ��
