Macan [Spy Shots] Porsche Macan: Spyshots & Info

[martinbo]

Your memory is short, Marcus. Don't you recall the ludicrously protracted unveiling of the Panamera?

 

[Merc1]

Yeah that too, but damn this is ridiculous. We already know what this one will look like.

Agree that this roll-out is too long of a process but it does look like it goes pretty good in that video.

WOW..just WOW..i love the interior..its amazingly good for the class..

That steering wheel is to die for!

 

[Rainer271]

For my mind the Macan cockpit is the class leader.

I am surprised they gave 918 steering to a lower model already.

 

[LaArtist]

^its not really the same steering wheel.. ofcourse..but there are some design differences aswell, not only the buttons:

 

[Sunny]

^Essentially the same design. Not saying it is a bad thing, these things trickle down, just surprised it happened so fast. I am also glad - the current wheel is little too bling.

 

[paxah]

Different key is you notice, exciting

Compared to its main rival - BMW... the 0-100 times are pretty weak.

In the case of the diesel it matches the X3 3.0d, but I am sure as so often is the case with Porsche these figures are conservative and reckon the 340hp model will post closer to 5.2 seconds and the Turbo 4.5s.

Yes, the diesel has a pretty competitive time tho I expect a pricier Porsche to be better, not close, not even... especially not worse than a cheaper Bimmer from 0-100 or anything else

Since the Q5 is already the match of the X3 I doubt the heavily modified Macan will be 'only' a match. I reckon it will swip the floor with all comers.

 

[Merc1]

Where is the car? We gotta wait until the last min huh?

Don't mind Marcus, we all know that he is prone to being macanistic at times.

 

[klier]

^ that's yet another word I have to look up in the dictionary. Damn you and you fancy words

 

[martinbo]

Play on the word "Macan" of course... just in case you didn't geddit. [but I know you did]
