Love and hate this car...

What I love about this Macan: Comfort, popular, good looks, quiet, fun to drive, good build quality. What I hate about this Macan: Maintenance is really expensive. In 40K miles I have spent $2250 versus Audi Q5 $1100 which I owned before. Audi's brakes need replacement every 25K. The dealer also was very stubborn on taking anything off the MSRP. Would I repeat this purchase? Probably not, you can save a few bucks buying the maintenance contract ahead which they didn't even offer me.

I really wanted this Porsche and we traded my BMW X5 for it and my hubby's 911, however, now I don't want to take it many places because it was so darned expensive that I just want it to sit in the garage! lol I miss the shoulder and open room of my X5 and some other little features that you don't realize you enjoyed until they were gone. Soft close doors, heads up display, just the roomy feel in general. I love, love, love the Macan, however, being in my 50's now and not in my 20's, I enjoy the ease of getting in a vehicle as well as getting out, and that is very tight in this beauty. However, once you're in, it fits like a glove and rides like a dream. I'm torn with keeping her or getting the new Audi SQ5 or the Volvo XC-60 R Design. I'm truly a car person and giving up that Porsche for one of those is definitely going to feel like going a few steps down. I'm torn I tell you!!

This is my first SUV; previous owner of Audi A5 and a few BMW 3-series cars. Wanted something sporty but higher off the ground. Really happy thus far with purchase. In addition, I purchased tire warranty and 5-year maintenance warranty. It is peace of mind for me. Interesting enough, I saw a nail in my tire just today so the warranty will come in handy inside of my first month of ownership. Updating after 3 years. Love the driving experience and overall layout of the Macan S! Updating after 4 years...maintenance has all been covered. With COVID, low mileage also helped... haven't changed tires yet.

I love my Macan..it’s comfortable for long rides and it’s so nimble, that is a pleasure to drive...I’m so happy with it..can’t imagine downgrading to another car after this...my last car was a 2016 Volvo XC60 and I liked that car too...but the Macan is in a different class...

I came out of a newer BMW convertible. Loved that car but needed something with just a bit more practicality. I looked at these on a whim and fell in love with the styling both inside and out. As soon as my wife sat in it she said....I want this car. Opted for the base with the premium plus package and 20" wheels plus a couple other options. Bought it for $52k net. I feel that it's actually a great value for what you get and there isn't another compact crossover that can touch it in the driving dynamics department. Handles like a 911. Average mid 20s on the highway on premium fuel. No complaints so far. The back seat could be a bit bigger, but it suits my 12 year old just fine.
