Used 2016 Porsche Macan SUV Consumer Reviews
One of the best SUV's on the market
This is one of the best SUV's you can buy at the 52-55K price point. Performance wise, it feels like you driving an larger sports car. Acceleration is on point, and handling is very tight for a car this size. When you hit the brakes you feel it. Aesthetically the outside of the car is beautiful, with curves and design that make it look very elegant and sporty. It looks like a traditional Porsche. Personally I'm not a fan of the interior, the cockpit layout of the buttons is too much for me and makes it feel like your in a 747. Also not a fan of the navigation system, but if Porsche is able to incorporate the new nav systems they have for the 718 for newer editions then that problem is solved. Overall great car, would take this over a BMW X4 any day.

The Twin Turbo
Overall I am very please with my Macan S 2016! I have owned a 1981 SC Porsche and a 2003 Carrera Cabriolet, (996). The Macan S sport SUV compact come very close to giving me a similar driving experience, especially driving in the sport mode, however it's not a Carrera. I am enjoying the overall performance, acceleration, braking and road handling from my Macan S. The transmission (PDK) is outstanding and its make the Macan fun to drive.

Practical Porsche
Owning a Porsche generally means giving up on some degree of practicality in terms of having a car that is a "daily driver". The Macan lets those of us with kids still in car seats have the opportunity to enjoy Porsche's legendary performance in a vehicle that is at home at the mall as it is on the track. The highest levels of performance come on the GTS model, but the "S" model offers plenty of acceleration and more capability than most drivers will ever exploit. The 18 way power seats are phenomenal and a worthwhile upgrade. The "premium plus" option includes keyless entry and ignition as well an upgraded sound system and ventilated/ heated seats. The 2017 model year has an upgraded touch screen navigation that is better than previous models, but not nearly as user friendly as some of the competitions. The packages will easily turn this $54,000 car into $70-90,000 car, but nobody walks into this purchase expecting a great value.
