So it's a Turbo PP with a few more options ticked? £86.2k vs £69.5k would need to be a lot of options ticked!
But it's limited, so should should keep the investment buyers happy

My mum had an car with Exclusive and it didn't keep value, I suspect the Citroën Xsara Picasso part may have had something to do with it

This 'new' Macan sounds like a way of boosting profit per Macan in the run up to the facelift model...

Agree.

'Specials' frequently appear shortly before changes to a current car.

Suspect facelift models will get engines from Panamera / Cayenne meaning more power lower emissions and better fuel economy. This could mean the facelift Turbo has the same power as the current Turbo PP. This will (probably) hit residuals for pre facelift cars which is one of the reasons I decided to get out of my Turbo PP a couple of weeks ago.

Having said that I expect the depreciation on the Cayman replacing it will be worse than any of the Macans I've owned. They really have been cheap to own, especially considering the way expensive cars usually lose money.

Sounds like you subscribe to the 'Arif' school of buying and selling Porsches, for relatively little loss.

Your new Cayman S spec looks good. I presume that you passed on the new Cayman GTS as you're after something a little more refined? A touch less raw and noisy than the GTS?

£23k for 40bhp and a few additional options. I’d wait for the facelift model.
