Porsche Macan S

After reshaping the global SUV landscape with the success of the Cayenne, Porsche's next vehicle to be introduced to the market is the Macan.

The vehicle we will be introducing this time is the early model Macan S. This model is equipped with a 3.0-liter V6 twin-turbo engine manufactured in Zuffenheisen. From the mid-model S onwards, the engine is manufactured by Audi, so the early model (2014-2018) Macan S has some advantages that are unique to this model.

Additionally, due to the oil pan, this SUV also features a Porsche-exclusive integrated dry sump lubrication system, which lowers the engine's center of gravity and contributes to better driving performance.

It has been a successful premium SUV that is always conscious of sporty driving, but also combines the interior space and ride comfort of a luxury car.

 

[About the vehicle]

The vehicle in question is a 2015 early model Macan S. At the time of the interview, the mileage was only around 46,000 km, so it is still a very low mileage vehicle.

Purchased a one-owner Macan S from a car shop in Sendai in March 2024

The wheels are available as optional 20-inch aluminum wheels or 19-inch winter tires, so you don't have to worry about snowy roads.

The drive recorder and radar detector were installed after purchase.

The delight function, which is disabled at the time of purchase, will soon be upgraded to a 4-light delight.

The appearance is dark blue.

It is also equipped with many options, including the first air suspension in its segment, and an 18-way seat adjustment mechanism (bucket seat type with movable side supports).

It is also equipped with heated front seats and a mechanism that links and lowers the passenger door mirror when the shift lever is in reverse range.

The interior is mainly white leather with a brown two-tone design on the dashboard.

The owner was particular about the interior color and was looking for a white interior color, and this color is apparently quite hard to find.

It also comes with air suspension, a levelling system, ride height adjustment and PASM.

 

[About the institution]

The engine and other components were in good condition, and during the test drive I sat in the passenger seat and experienced driving in sports mode; despite the powerful twin-turbo acceleration, the car ran with a stable feel.

The Porsche 3.0-liter twin-turbo engine has been converted from the Panamera V8 to a V6, and the VarioCam Plus (a mechanism that varies the valve lift and timing) delivers an exhilarating and precise feel.

The LCD display for electrical equipment is also clear and written in Japanese, making it easy to read.

 

[Exterior]

There were not many noticeable scratches, but there were some scratches on the front bumper. No other noticeable scratches were found.

 

[Indoors]

The white leather has some seat belt wear marks on the driver's side support. The driver's side shows some signs of wear.

The passenger seat and back seat were clean with almost no scuffs or wrinkles. The headliner was also in good condition with no sagging.

I also used the storage room and it was clean.

 

This is the owner's second Porsche in his car history, having owned a Cayenne.

He was thinking of switching from his Cayenne to a domestic car, but after experiencing the quality of the Porsche, he decided he wanted to drive a Porsche for a while longer, so he switched to the Macan. In particular, he was impressed by the unrelenting power when he stepped on the accelerator, the excellent brakes that stopped it, and the comfort of not tiring long-distance drives. Recently, he has been using public transportation more often, but driving in the Macan is fun and tireless, and before he knew it, he was planning his next trip in the Macan.

 

The things that the owner liked about the Macan were the optional white 18-way seats, the air suspension, the Porsche 3L twin-turbo engine, and the dry sump oil system, which he had always wanted to try.

However, the width of my car is large and due to the space in my parking space at home, I would like to trade it in for a car with a smaller width, so I would like to sell it to anyone who likes it.
