1fast1 Supersonic August 12, 2014 Share August 12, 2014 Models, not makes, but fair enough. Of course it can't be someone with a Cayenne, that's equally ridiculous. And a Panamera is on the borderline. Just the 911, Cayman and Boxster owners, and I think the latter (possibly the latter two) will be too embarrassed to be scoffing much. So that just leaves the 911 owners to do the scoffing, if they're so inclined. Cayman, not Cayenne. Damn typo. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quantum 5th Gear August 12, 2014 Share August 12, 2014 (edited) The Macan is the sixth model in Porsche's lineup, and will sit just below the Cayenne in the family hierarchy. Conceived to be the 'sports car' of its segment, the new Macan embodies the sporting DNA of the Stuttgart automaker. The base variant features a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine - the smallest in Porsche's current lineup - and packs 237bhp. But at $218,888 (w/o COE), do you think the Macan 2.0 is a good buy? Wahlao, w/o COE $218,888 :angry: Porsche, you are joking or think Singaporean all are fools even if $218,888 with COE, I also do not consider, same category I rather go for XC60, Lexus NX200, even Subaru Forster (240bhp/350Nm) doesn't lose New Macan on performance at all, but price almost cheaper 130k Edited August 12, 2014 by Quantum Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excluding Japanese VAT, it would be JPY 5.7mn, which is equivalent to S$70k. Why not? Other than NX, the rest is not in the same class lah. Look at Evoque. It is in the same league le.

rocknroll 2nd Gear August 12, 2014 Share August 12, 2014 From almost all online reviews, the Macan is one of the best "sporty SUV" in terms of drive and luxury. So if you are into SUV and you like to drive fast, then yes, it is a good buy. But why buy SUV to drive fast? If want fast, then just get a fast car; if want SUV then just get a real SUV. Mixing the 2 will get you compromise and a half-bred . 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myxilplix Turbocharged August 12, 2014 Share August 12, 2014 I hope it's really successful and many, many people all over Singapore and the world buy the Macan. It will mean more money for Porsche to develop their sports and racing cars which is always a good thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karu 6th Gear August 13, 2014 Share August 13, 2014 To me, the Range Rover Evoque is a better choice. Not sure about performance but looks nicer. ↡ Advertisement 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
