49K for a brand new Macan T ? Basic OK, but 3-year old S's wanting 50+??
Is it because of the long delivery?
New Macan T
Yes , but more demand for Macan's means low depreciation. Even 2014/2015 7 or 8 year old S's or SD's are rarely priced below £30K even with 70k to 80 K mileagemickmichael wrote: ↑Wed May 18, 2022 11:03 am 49K for a brand new Macan T ? Basic OK, but 3-year old S's wanting 50+??

2019 Macan S Porsche code PKW8WKI8
Forget the T.
It is a 2.0 litre.
If you want a Porsche please do buy one that lives up to the badge.
Go for an S or GTS or Turbo as a second hand buy.
You can configure a brand new S with a reasonable set of options for less than £60k.

The T handles like a GTS, possibly better. Does the S do that? At the end of the day, they are both Q5s with an Audi/VW engine.
So which "badge" are they "living" up to?
They all handle like a the two ton SUV that they are. Any minor differences could only be exploited on a track. The V6’s are much, much faster though.
They could make the T handle like a housefly on crack, but I would take the S or GTS everyday and twice on Sundays!

That’s the base Macan
Macan T - £53,970
I think a little extra for it to be “on the road” as such, plus any options of course.
And so the 2.0T bashing continues - weary
For most people the 2.0T gives more than ample everyday performance, ,equivalent to a warm/hot hatch so hardly a slouch. It might not be as dramatic as an S/GTS/Turbo but there's not many chances to deploy that extra power on UK roads, not without being a loon or clocking up speeding tickets. Yes the 6 cylinders sound better, but you pay more for that priviledge in cost, servicing,tax, insurance and fuel.

says the man with a base 911 on order - what no GTS?

We’ll, I have driven the base and the S 911 and the useable difference is minor plus you get hardly anything more in terms of kit. The GTS will be much quicker I think but way out of my budget…
The difference between a 2l Macan and a V6 is enormous and yet the price difference is comparatively modest.
