Macan

One of these drove past me yesterday while I was running, it sounded great.

I guess this shouldn't come as a surprise but I just built one out on the online configurator and holy poo poo the options are expensive

There's lots of sweet cars in that price range but some people just have to have a Porsche. Also I think the 0-60 time on the e55 is about half a second slow

I'm considering trading my M4 for a 2015 Cayman S that a local dealer has left over. I think I can get it for 9-10k under MSRP as they're already advertising it at 7k under MSRP and it's the end of the year.

It's reasonably well equipped, sport suspension and power steering plus, and some cosmetics. 6 speed.

Anything I should look out for? I know it won't feel as fast as the M4 but all that power is pretty useless day to day and I want to try a Porsche.

Edit: apparently one can get massive discounts on prior year new Carreras. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm bye bye money

Bored with the M, or just don't like it?

On a subsequent run, the Porsche’s meaty rear 305/30ZR20 103Y Pirelli P Zero N1’s grabbed asphalt so effectively that the 911’s front wheels temporarily left the ground as our tester tried to correct for the car’s wayward heading.

Took this today outside the DR office. 911 Targa 4S with PDK and PCCB. I love the color (Miami Blue)

The navy/silver/Miami combo is a little awkward

I've had my 2017 Macan Turbo for about 2 years and it's by far the best DD and overall vehicle I've ever owned. Haven't done anything besides oil changes. For the price I'm really not sure what you can get that's better when considering the balance of practicality, quality, performance etc.
