Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 лип 2024
- The 2017 Porsche Macan Turbo was the most expensive in the segment back in 2017 with some costing over $100,000 but now just 6 years later it's depreciated into the $30k range, making this 400 hp SUV a very tempting option. Are you tempted by these? Huge thanks to Harrison Auto Sales for providing this vehicle to review! It's currently for sale and more info can be found on it here: www.harrisonautos.com/details...

Am liking the used car videos you posting lately. Keep it up. 👍🏾
As long as he doesn't turn into Doug.
Fun fact: the STI gets worse MPGs
I rented a 2015 Macan Turbo once. I liked it so much that I rented it again a few months later. 😂 It's one of my favorite cars I've driven.
turo?
@@jonasbaine3538 ye
15' Turbo still holding strong 131k miles. Youll never find two exactly alike. It can also hold a 65in TV in the box.
What has been the biggest repair you've had to get done? How many times have you had it walnut-blasted to clean the intake valves?
It's mostly been maintenance but the biggest repair that I've done was a coolant line that runs front to the firewall burst, Coolant reservoir lost hold at the seam and needed to be replaced, and 2 other coolant lines that brach from the aforementioned reservoir got brittle and broke off when replacing the reservoir. Nothing so far has broke that I couldn't fix in a garage with a buddy in a couple of hours.
@@garrencarmichael6780coolent line breaking scares me thou 😢
Still holding strong after 71,000 miles ❤👍🏼💪🏽🔥
70k is nothing for a turbo when taken care of
Buying this without a warranty would be the stupidest thing a person could do.
You bet. Very tempting, but in the end if driven as a daily it would absolutely destroy one's wallet.
If you buy a car older than 5 years old good luck having warranty.
@@watsonanthony8438 buying from carmax is probably best bet for getting a solid warranty.
If you're that broke you don't need to be looking at owning a Porsche. 😂😂
Take low mileage and it is pretty decent as reliability for its class. I think 4-5k a year in maintenance cost on average is not that high.
Really enjoy you in this format on used cars.
Really liked the view angles you used. Nice !
These last-gen reviews are fun. Since these will always be used cars, it’d be nice to see a section in the videos where you cover real owner reviews and long term cost of ownership. I think consumer reports collects that data for most cars.
The heated wheel button is funny. No marker telling location or light.
well I bet it sound/sounds/sounded like a whole lot a fun to drive eh? btw Matt can't wait to watch the weekly update video on Friday hopefully it will have/be having news/updates about any new cool cars/car news to talk about 👍👍🤟🤟also btw getting close to 450,000 subscribers on your channel and 55,000 subscribers away from 500,000 subscribers which is🤯🤯 to think about already time sure does fly by quick doesn't it good luck getting there Matt 👍👍🤞🤞🤟🤟
I have a 2020 Turbo. LOVE it.
Awesome review. I didn’t know these also depreciated this much
Like most cars, they will depreciate, but especially luxury cars, they will depreciate a lot, so you can get one of these used for a pretty good bargain, and some will have more options than others, but if you want a nice luxury car, then why not buy it used? Although with German cars, there's always the maintenance issue, so warranty is preferred.
Porsche are great until the servicing costs. My last 997 service cost 7k
HUH what was done on your service?
@@ValkenDnB --Aired up the tires at a dealer.
I think you meant "stealer".@@robertjones7565
This Macan still looks fresh for being a 6 year old car same with the interior ❤️❤️👏👏 although being a used German car it’ll be kinda expensive to maintain and PLEASE GET A WARRANTY. It’ll be a bad idea to not do that for any car let alone a German car. Also I thought that same thing regarding all those buttons. Yes, there is a lot of buttons down by the shifter, but honestly, I love physical buttons, so I can get used to that, and the fact that it has physical buttons and less screens is a good thing. I don't like massive screens in cars, like what you see these days, I want physical buttons that'll help me do what I need on a basic infotainment screen like this one. Also that 3.6L twin turbo V6 with Porsche's 7-speed PDK dual clutch transmission is phenomenal. You can't expect less from a Porsche PDK transmission, that thing shifts lightning quick.
been on the fence for one of these or a new one, very tempting indeed.
Only reason id consider leasing is to avoid the maintenance.
Agree, I’m in my fifties, and already know if I make it to my 70’s one of my great regrets in life is. Or being able to afford a new Porsche.
edit is nice too !
I have a 2015 Macan S (bought on 3/21 w/ 59k miles) and it’s an awesome vehicle, so I can just imagine the Turbo being even more fun 🙌
Update on reliability and costs?
@@Embrxceyourdemons had to take it in to Porsche for the infamous oil leak that the early Gen’s suffered from a few months back. It’s an “engine out” process which costs around $12k. Luckily I had the CarMax warranty, so it only costed me $750 out of pocket. Otherwise, thats the only issue I had so far.
@@markdafunky1 good to know car max warranty is legit. It just sucks they don’t negotiate on pricing but will dryads then to the list. Fun fact if it happens again supposedly it’s fixed via two bolts being changed. Can do it in a parking lot no life require d
Love the look of these. Would consider this or dark horse Alfa Stelvio Quadrifolio for this money?
I like the uniqueness of the Stelvio but I'm gonna have to go Macan cuz Alfa Romeo is owned by Fiat/ Chrysler.
I would never own one purely because of maintenance costs. But I’ve rented Macans several times and love driving them
Been trying to get my spouse to get used Macan! 35k is on the lowest end for that. Hard to find an s for that
Sweet, the only Macon sweeter than that on Matt was the pics of the silver one you featured, If I bought that one, first thing I'd do is change those out-dated wheels!
Is this wheel outdated in this video?
No.
God I would love that I considered one a couple years ago I believe it was the GTS it was 45,000
This or x3 m40i?
I absolutely love how this thing looks. Its beautiful. I just can't figure out if its a good buy used.
I've been thinking of getting one lately also.
@@j.dmalone6544 well I'll let you know after I get one this weekend. It's a 2017 Macan Turbo with performance package. I'm a little nervous about the transmission and other things that can break, but I'm giving it a go. I've been a Lexus guy all my life.
I passed on one recently because the dealer refused to let me take the Macan turbo with 120k+miles off the lot to a mechanic for inspection.
@@jonasbaine3538 then that's a hard pass for me too
@@RubberChickenMan007 yep. It’s still at dealer a month later unsurprisingly.
Looks like a new one to me,
Nice, but the Turbo Performance Package (basically a Turbo S) would be the one to get. 👍🏾
Or just get a Cobb tune along with lowering the car slightly (easy for those who have air suspension)
That's a lot of car for the money. I wonder how the tuning market is on these things. 12s for an SUV still blows my mind.
I think aftermarket support is pretty decent!
What is the reliability for a 150k km car?
Makes me want to get one of these for my wife to daily. Then I will have something fun to drive as well!
Not a well optioned Macan. Air suspension is an absolute must for a Turbo in my opinion. Had an S without it before, then a Turbo with. Very noticeable difference
Looks like a cool Dad mobile, I picked up a black Infiniti FX50S with 135k for $12k to use as mine.
Massive thumbs up to you Sir, from someone who's only been driving VQs since '06. That 5.0 is considered exotic in the Nissan stable.
Was the Macan the car that saved Porsche back in the day? That is absolutely on the other end of "not enough buttons".
It was actually the Cayenne that saved Porsche back in the day. When the Cayenne came out in 2002, it literally saved Porsche in terms of sales, so Porsche wouldn't have been what it is today without that vehicle.
@@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan Thank you!
These are still overpriced on the used market for what you get
YAY a used car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
👍
Not when you turn your own wrenches and stay on top of major services 😉
The previous owner gave this car up for a reason .. Eventually the new owner will find out what the problem was but unlike the seller the buyer and new owner is left holding a 5k , 10k. Even 20k repair bill..
It's always best to never buy a sport or luxury car unless you have the money to burn to fix it when it breaks ..
Most of these very expensive used BMWs and Mercedes out there are super affordable only bc the needed repairs and cost of those repairs are higher then what you paid for the car.
Buy a certified factory wananty
Same reason I never bought a Mini, not that reliable and then you're paying BMW repair costs.
Wow, expert advice there. People give up cars for a multitude of reasons; age, mileage, downsizing, marriage, divorce, lease-end, moving, having kids, inheritance, new opportunity, new job. High maintenance costs come from the Labor Rate charged by the repair facility. Porsche dealers, depending on location, can charge over $500/hr, where Honda will charge $150/hr. So a 4 hour brake job will cost $1400 more at Porsche, but changing the brakes on both cars is an almost identical procedure. Yes, the parts are more expensive on the Porsche, but that stopping power is worth every penny. BTW, I’m trading in my Honda Accord because it needs tires and it’s the most boring car I’ve ever owned.
A lot of vehicle for the money.
Bmw 535i GT-550i GT
Carplay standard in 2017
GLC63 is the more compelling option in my mind given V8s are dying
I have one and its not as reliable as a porsche sorry to break it to you ...a lot of them have been recalled and thats not cool at all ... the car stalls and cuts off sometimes wont crank ...currently waiting on a backorder part smh so porsche is def better...I have a porsche too
is it a 4x4? look at that wheel gap! 😅
It actually does supposed have decent off-road capability surprisingly!
@@MattMaranMotoring ohh
So much can go wrong with a 7 year old Porsche. I would avoid
How to make a small fortune out of a large one=buy a used Porsche.
Do the maintenance as the manufacturer said 😅😅
First time seeing your channel. But within a few seconds I hear that the interior "is a little dated" and "has aged very well".
Make up your mind.
Overpriced Q5 or Tiguan the reliability is pure garbage
Why?
The only thing more expensive than a new German car is a used German car!
LMFAO!!!!!!😂
Mainly because drivers who lease them, abuse them to no end... at least I assume these guys are leasers, in Ottawa anyway. CLA250's, lower end 3-series spinning tires and triple-downshifting e. ver. y. where.
@@jacquesc3166check the car fax lol😂
Keep enjoying your late model Civic.
