discussion Non BMW New addition

[r0ckf1re]

So no long stories. Wanted a new car since I bought a holiday home in Umhlanga and decided to send the X3 there to be used when we go there. So, gonna need a family car here in GP.

The service levels from this brand is beyond compare to any other brand I’ve dealt with.

Congrats on the new ride. That’s awesome!

Keen to hear how the ownership experience progresses

Welcome to the Dark Side 😉

Looks like a Gen 3 GTS. These cars are in very high demand. You will likely make a tidy profit if you sell it within the next 12 months (supply is that tight and demand is high).

I have 2 mates with the Gen 3 GTS. Basically a Gen 2 Turbo with more goodies. So good is the Gen 3 GTS, that Porsche no longer offer a Macan Turbo.

Wishing you many happy and exhilarating miles.

It may not be as quick as a new X3 M, but it will run circles around the M (in the real world) and feels more light on its feet. Ride comfort and composure is better than any other sporty SUV out there. I noticed that Comfort (in PASM, non air suspension, at least on my Gen 1 car) bounces a bit, but Sport is pretty decent on most roads. You will have fun playing around with the settings and tweaking it for your needs.

I would strongly advise getting insurance for the tyres though. Porsche do not allow any repairing of tyres - motor plan will be voided. Ask them for a month-to-month insurance quote on tyres. Will be less than R500pm, but well worth it. Also, worth noting that run flats are a no-no with Porsche - lucky they give an inflatable spare wheel and a compressor.

PPF and ceramic coating is a must.

Anyway, if you have any queries, drop me a message.

Thanks bro. Booked in to go to Precision Glaze for full PPF and Ceramic coating. Insurance covers tyres so not too concerned about that.

Have to take it easy for the 1st 1K kms so will start playing around after. The test drives were damn Awsome. This is one impressive SUV if I may say so myself. The salesman at Porche compare it to the 911, just easier to get in and out

Does this use the 2.9 V6 TT that's in the E3 Cayenne S? If so super fun motor but must be so much more enjoyable in the smaller Macan platform.

Congratulations bro, absolutely stunning.
Many happy and safe miles.

A Porsche is definitely in my future!

You have the same 2.9 V6 engine as the GTS in the RS4, so already part of the family . Just need to transition across fully
