Great Video!! I Daily Drive a Macan, and I agree with you. I opted out of the sunroof because it shaved about 200lbs of weight off the car, and body rigidity is better. Keep in mind that even though those other vehicles may list sightly lower 0-60 numbers, Porsche has always been reserved with their numbers, and in reality they are a lot quicker. One of the Best vehicles that I have owned.
I had a macan base 2 years ago. Nice ride but so many issues/recalls. Especially the noise from the steering wheel column, they had to lubricate every 4 months. The new Macan is improved. Yesterday, I managed to grab the last allocation slot my deader had for a 2023 Macan GTS. It's such a deal to pass. Unfortunately, the only way to get the python green is to buy the GTS package ~$12.000 AND the green python color on top ~$3200. So I chose the grey. This is why you don't see many green. It's way cheaper for a 911, you are not forced to buy any $12.000 package on top. Very nice review.
I like that porscha hasnt yet decided to go all out on the futuristic design and i absolutely love the analog speedo and tacho,The exterior design is nice and old style which i love man i really hope porscha stays like this, But the price is a bit steep and mpg not great.
Ok....I no longer think of these as a sad attempt to make an SUV, that fails at both SUV or performance. I WANT ONE. I actually like the green it's original and unique. What a GORGEOUS interior. That engine sound is addicting.
It’s definitely not a sorry attempt of an SUV, the Macan is really just a smaller Cayenne, it competes in a large segment, the BMW X3, Mercedes Benz GLC, Range Rover Velar, Maserati Grecale, Genesis GV70. So the Macan does pretty well amongst its competition.
There’s no Android auto and Bose is not standard, nor is blind spot monitoring - unless I’m mistaken, but I’ve been playing in the configuration for the last couple months. Test drove one this morning. Liked it a lot
I have a 992 GT3. I am thinking of adding the Macan GTS as well. How well does complement the GT3? Let's say the speed limit doesn't exist. Should I go for the Macan EV Turbo instead?
Macan GTS, my dream daily 🚙 💨 911 Turbo S, my dream supercar 🏎️💨 And also I want an Ⓜ️340i as my humble car 🚘 🗣️I’m 18 this year. Working hard to hopefully achieve is one day 🤞 I like the green, however I’d most likely wrap or re-spray it. I love the way pastel purple looks on a car. And it will also help the car stand out
As a German, its Porsche with an e, not Porsch, not Porscha just Porsche. But i know you can’t spell it out that way, so porscha is definitely better than porsch😂
I love the Macan GTS, I don't like big and heavy SUVs, but I do like the SUV body style, it's just the most practical body style, so this Macan size is perfect, and to have it be a Porsche on this spec and this sound? Wonderful.
Funny that Porsche asked for you not to do a launch - is this a you specific thing, or are they cracking down on all automotive UA-camrs? Keep up the great work, Miles! You and the Topher should meet sometime.
Though they didn't say, I got the impressions they're cracking down on all UA-cam review content. Topher, sub-Topher, and I have actually met before - great guys!
Good review but it's not a push to pass button with extra power, it's called sport response and it goes to Sport+ for 20 seconds. Also, the yellow carbon brakes are no longer available in the US (maybe everywhere).
I love both of them but was just blessed with the SVR and am totally smitten by how natural the handling feels while defying physics and that soundtrack is unmatched. Love love love it and feel so blessed thanks be to God.
I have a 2020 Macan S. I like the GTS but am not a fan of the green color or without ventilated front seats. Mine has them and I love them. The GTS isn't a twin-turbo like you said it's a twin-spun turbo. Also, you forgot to mention a very nice manual shifting feature with a single up & down shifter. You don't need to use the paddle shifters in manual mode. Not all Porsche has this option but the Macan does and I love it. In addition, you failed to mention that the GTS comes standard with surface-coated brakes that are better than iron. The press of the button is called push to pass just like in Indy car. You could have talked more about the PDK. I have the thermally and noise-insulated glass in my Macan S it's worth the upgrade. Also, Porsche outhandles the competition. Thanks for the review. I give you 3.5 stars could have been better.
If you see someone says it is a "mommy "SUV", probably because they can't afford it or never drove one. It is unfair because it is nothing close to honda crv or toyota rav4. This is FUN. You don't have to stuck with 2 door impractical lowriders just because someone thinks something...
Torn between the Porsche Panamera GTS and the Porsche McKahn GTS. Can’t decide on which one to try and find on the used car market. There’s not many. I’ve been looking for the right one for a year. What are your thoughts?
very cool video! oh man you cant go up and down Modjeska like that anymore, i was back there last weekend and they put speed strips all up the road to the fork.
The suspension tuning separates it from the Macan S - it feels more planted through corners. The extra power doesn't hurt, and the styling is preferential, but I'd get the GTS for the handling.
Hey short question, any ideas where I can adjust the steering force? Didn't find it in the settings. I just picked a new one up this weekend and the steering feels very stiff.
Spare tires are like unobtainium these days. Every other oem goes on about saving weight etc (code for they save money, you pay the same amount). The sports car OEM gives the customer what they need because they know that the weight does not matter and having to wait for a tow and a tire shop in the middle of nowhere is not a good experience.
I love the X3 M40i, it just doesn't have the same steering feel and ride comfort as the Macan GTS. If you're on a stricter budget, I'm ALL about the X3 M40i, though.
@@MilesPerHr Yea i was looking at a Macan S vs my M40i but it was another +$15k w options... there is no way I would choose the Porsche badge / steering feel over an extra 80HP at that price which comes w the X3M

few weeks away from taking delivery of a 23 macan gts....now i'm even more excited
Congratulations! You're gonna love it
I have to give you a thumbs up for not blurring the speed on cluster
Huge fan of the green. Tired of seeing so much white, black, and gray on the road!
Our roads do need more color, agreed!
The white looks so good with black sides and door handles.
Wish it was more green in the interior
So true. Green looks on this Model so good 👍🏻

Green to commemorate the money wasted on all those packages
Thanks for the walk around first. Nothing worse than a POV drive without a walk around!
This man's driving skills is 💯👍🏽
That green goes so hard! 🔥

When you really think into engine performance they both pull throttle the same and I'm in love with the 2017.
Analog gauges are the best!! Glad that a car sold in 2022 still has these
I love Python Green! I would get the Macan GTS and the new 911 GT3 in that color.
There’s no Android auto and Bose is not standard, nor is blind spot monitoring - unless I’m mistaken, but I’ve been playing in the configuration for the last couple months. Test drove one this morning. Liked it a lot
Great review. I have a 2022 GTS as my daily driver and agree it’s stunning. I have a 991.2 gt3, good to see a review of that car you would love it
Lies lol
Why would I lie about that, I’ve owned Porsches for the last twenty years just happens to be the cars I currently own
@@ghowells5433 ok
One day I hope to say the same, congratulations for being able to live the dream of many

Even the Macan S is fun to drive and satisfying!
Macan GTS, my dream daily 🚙 💨
911 Turbo S, my dream supercar 🏎️💨
And also I want an Ⓜ️340i as my humble car 🚘
🗣️I’m 18 this year. Working hard to hopefully achieve is one day 🤞
I like the green, however I’d most likely wrap or re-spray it.
I love the way pastel purple looks on a car. And it will also help the car stand out
I think the green reflects the bank accounts of people who drive these
As a German, its Porsche with an e, not Porsch, not Porscha just Porsche. But i know you can’t spell it out that way, so porscha is definitely better than porsch😂
LOVE my GTS. Thanks for a fun review
2023 Macan GTS being picked up next week - Can't wait :)
Very nice! Enjoy it 👍
Porsche Macan GTS hands down no contest.
I love the Macan GTS, I don't like big and heavy SUVs, but I do like the SUV body style, it's just the most practical body style, so this Macan size is perfect, and to have it be a Porsche on this spec and this sound? Wonderful.
That's a beautiful color, perfectly matches porches athletic look
Love the color definitely with a panoramic roof. Sweet video. Thank you.
I love the color and would love having one!!!
Safe Journey!
CHOLULA!!!

Most thorough and in-detail car reviewer on planet earth 🌏 a.k.a MILES-P-H
🏆👌🏻
Thank you for the kind words!
the F pace svr has my heart
F pace is 1 segment up though
@@Bleakend ur right but I was under the impression that they compete w each other the svr competes w the x3 and stelvio
I felt the same until I drove a Trackhawk
That's another winner - the soundtrack alone is gold.
I love both of them but was just blessed with the SVR and am totally smitten by how natural the handling feels while defying physics and that soundtrack is unmatched. Love love love it and feel so blessed thanks be to God.
We've got one in identical spec, great review!

I just wish the top spec macan would offer heads up display!
Sir its called PorschE and not PorschA but its also not Porsch meaning the e at the end is not silent. Just simple Porsche
Door close noise is funny dude! Great review... Love this car just not id green. I will get one before they stop selling
Really love your commenting, its very soothing in a way
That's great to hear, thank you for the feedback!

Did you verify Android Auto? I keep seeing references to Apple Carplay but not Android Auto. Thanks for the review!
Beautiful car, beautiful color 💚
a green car! awesome! world needs more green cars.
I have a 2016 s I bough it to have for a few months and now I have two years and I love it so much that won’t ever sale
very cool video! oh man you cant go up and down Modjeska like that anymore, i was back there last weekend and they put speed strips all up the road to the fork.
I’ve only been driving 🇩🇪 🚗 since 2009, nothing compares to them…
I agree with all the report of the most beautiful SUV - well done!
How you pronounce the first letter of End, use this at the End of Porsche (PorschE) instead of Porscha.
Nice review. I like the color aswell.
Stelvio quadrifolgio vs Macan gts please
He said blind spot monitoring is standard. That's untrue.
Such perfection!
My preference is S
green - AMAZING color choice for a 7 year old!
Great footage and review!
braindead take
Which would you rather have, Macan GTS or CT4 V Blackwing (price aside)?
Mine is due in tomorrow - but delayed 30 day because of bose chip shortage (this after 7month order)... what another month right.. :) very excited
sorry, german here (and being / acting german) its not PorschHA its just porschE stopping E at the end.
nice car dude
It was a fun week with the Macan GTS!
How would this compare to the Macan S? E.g. driving dynamics, overall package
The suspension tuning separates it from the Macan S - it feels more planted through corners. The extra power doesn't hurt, and the styling is preferential, but I'd get the GTS for the handling.
@@MilesPerHr Could you tell a difference in the power between the two?
Hey short question, any ideas where I can adjust the steering force? Didn't find it in the settings. I just picked a new one up this weekend and the steering feels very stiff.
Don't think there is an adjustment for that, likely have to get to a GT3 RS for that sort of thing. Check you tire pressure in the dash display...
Hi Miles, Should I buy a Macan GTS or Cayanne GTS or a GLE53?? Which one do you recommend?
Macan GTS more fun to drive
@@alexi21san perhaps. I thought cayenne GTS instead. Macao is too small for me.
@@tonyan6457 It depends on your needs which is subjective.I want to buy the Macan gts especially after test driving it .
good on ya@@alexi21san
😍😍😍💯love this SUV

Really random comparison but in the market for an 2024 m4 or a 24 macan gts don’t know which to choose
its made me laughing tonight. yes ,exactly ,your review and the exhaust sound👏
Technically Porsche does have a hot hatch... it's called the Cayman. 😄
The Cayman is hot, and does have a liftback - touché!
This is a jam Love it😍
Its PorschE. In Germany you say it late that. And Ferdinand was a German.
i like the look at in orange
I’d have it in black!
Oh nice
the Audi engine and transmission works really good in this Macan 👍.
I assume this is a joke.
@@greg5143 unfortunately not, it´s true.
@@alengreen589 the PDK was developed by porsche, not audi.
It's a porsche engine
Got that backwards pal.
If only it wasn’t so heavy. An M340 xdrive is quicker and more lithe for less. And not a lot less practical. Great car though.
I have driven both. Sold the M340i and have a GTS on order.
Man comparing this to an 53 AMG inline 6 engine is interesting…
That’s not suede. Suede is an animal hide. This is a synthetic material called Alcantara, which Porsche calls, “Race Tex”.
Really just paying for that badge
I want one
If you call and Audi engine and a engine mount brace that has “made in China” stamped on it a Porsche then go for it. It’s a Transgerman in my book.
Gle Amg 53 👍🏻👍🏻
Porsche does NOT claim 3.5 seconds. Nobody does. Only you. It's 4.5 seconds.
Wrong! Its called PorschE not PorschA
I like the color, but not the best one.❤
where is that road on 11:30？
The Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio the best of these three you forget. You should do your homework better next time.
I prefer a Jaguar SVR
I think it’s quicker 0-60
facelift number 3 for this 2014 year SUV 🤣
its not porscha. its porsche.
It's still an SUV, lol. Nothing drives like a car other than a car
Canton
Seriously!!!!!
A Compact car priced 100,000. I think the e63 is better than that.
it´s midsize category.
X3 M40i is far more affordable and more modern... not far in performance either
I love the X3 M40i, it just doesn't have the same steering feel and ride comfort as the Macan GTS. If you're on a stricter budget, I'm ALL about the X3 M40i, though.
@@MilesPerHr Yea i was looking at a Macan S vs my M40i but it was another +$15k w options... there is no way I would choose the Porsche badge / steering feel over an extra 80HP at that price which comes w the X3M
like it
alfa stelvio bolji
First
actually macan is pronounced ma-chan..
Overpriced mommy suv
Mommies got a bmw. This thing is a beast like porsche always is.
As I said in the video, some people may just buy it for the brand cred, but those who get it for the performance will be VERY satisfied
