Really enjoy watching this guy. He is a total natural. This is a better review than any other presenter I have seen. His talent not learned or exaggerated. Just a pure natural..... media missed this guy!!!......panache and style. His thoughts and comments also very clear and precise....thanks mate!.
The Porsche Macan is Porsches secret. It's that good, Porsche do not want anyone to know just how good it is ;-))... And reviewed by the UK's No1 car reviewer too. Rory... Ooops... No...! Err... I meant to say Howard! Reviewed by the UK's No1 car reviewer, Howard* ;-))... * - Who should also be on TopGear...
Howard you are very good,the dogs as they say,and i enjoy your reviews immensely.Some things i want to point out,first,i would not call a 2.9l,a tiny engine.Have a good friend who loves his Honda Civic and gets 310bhp from a unit under 2.0l.Now who would buy a normal aspirated car with all the electric on the horizon?You can just about justify it on a 3 year lease.Now whatever you drive 14.3 mpg and around 23 mpg combined,is not on in this day and age.Still i love this car and for me the most beautiful suv in its class.Thanks again for your review mate and stay safe out there.
JUST BOUGHT THE REGULAR ENGINE PORSCHE MACAN 2021 WITH PREMIUM PLUS PACKAGE--IT'S FANTASTIC!! SUPER LUXURIOUS INTERIOR; GAUGES AND SWITCHES ARE LIKE A JET COCK PIT; FIT AND FINISH ARE SUPERB AND THE REGULAR ENGINE IS FAST ENOUGH FOR ME. SURE YOU CAN GET ONE THAT GOES 250 MPH BUT WHY? YOU COULD DRIVE IT ON AN AIRPORT RUNWAY OR SPEEDWAY--I DON'T FEEL INCLINED TO DO SO. HANDLING IS FANTASTIC AND BRAKING--YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE IT. IT IS REALLY A PLEASURE TO DRIVE AND THE STYLING OUTSIDE AND INSIDE ARE IN A CLASS BY THEMSELVES--PORSCHE!!! GREAT DESIGNERS AND ENGINEERS AT PORSCHE.
Great review Howard (you are fairly entertaining) - my Turbo arrives mid August 21, can't wait. Apparently its the last Turbo model and the Macan Mk3 will have the GTS as the top spec model with some tweaks to get it close to this outgoing Turbo plus costing a little less. No more buttons in the Mk3 but not sure I could live with finger prints all over the new haptic interface.
Porsche doesn't stand behind the quality of their vehicles. The transfer case on 2015 Macan S has failed twice now in only 27,000 miles. This is a known issue which caused Porsche to extend their warranty to 7 ys. Their "improved" transfer case lasted only 2 years 2 months and 9,000 miles. I am out of warranty by 6 weeks and Porsche turns their back on problem and sticks me for $3,200 repair. Don't buy a Porsche w/o extended warranty for entire length of time you expect to own it. #1 rated warranty company - Endurance - won't even sell coverage on Macan. That should tell Porsche and all potential buyers something. Customer experience is far from an expected premium car brand experience.
@@andrewpascale8453 my dealership is taking care of me. My Macan has been there for 6 weeks now with multiple issues besides it’s 2nd transfer case. Porsche field reps and the Porsche field rep manager has been there to help diagnose its failures. Once it is out and fixed it will be traded for a 2022 BMW X4M40i. No more Porsches for me. First 7 years and 27k miles were a joy. Unfortunately now it is no longer a reliable vehicle.
Endurance is a scam company. Do you know they don't cover labor? Only parts? That means, you will pay $5000 to remove and replace your engine if needed. Also they want to contat the garage/dealership so that they can 'arrange' the labor to parts ratio = screw you up completly.
