My OPC now has new facelift Macans in the showroom (the 2L). Hopefully be should able to configure an S in the next few weeks. Hopefully, I'll get to have a look tomorrow. After such a long wait, I'm not sure if I'm excited or not!

Excellent Dave! Be sure to take some pics and share if you're able to ...

I'd love to drive one if only to see how it is dynamically different to the outgoing 2 litre.

it would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the changes inside the cabin especially around the new screen in the dash.

I had the pleasure of viewing today whilst at OPC.

Certainly the new larger display is great. But I was just looking as no interest in changing my GTS which is still like new and fully loaded 😊.

Sorry I didn’t take any pics and thought about it half way home 😟.
Hope it meets your expectations.
For me the Macan is best in its class. Nothing drives as well imo.
GTS 😀

Accidentally caught the new rear end with this 911 shot. I think I’ll stick with the SD . I prefer the old style rear end.

Ditto. The gen 1 Macan had a classic 928-like rear lights. New one has bling-mobile lights for Asian market [emoji38]

Well, popped into an OPC to buy a toy Porsche and have left with the prospect of buying a new Macan 3.0 S. Have been offered £50k against my Mar 17 GTS (£68k new) and the new vehicle comes out at around £63k with options. Although it is still a guess on the list price at the moment. Must admit, £18k seems a lot to lose in just under 2 years but overall the cost to change doesn’t come out too bad.......

Anyone had any other p/ex offers to compare against?

Well, I was quite impressed with the new face lift Macan. Liked the front-end, neither hated or loved the rear end. However it did seem to make the old Macan rear end look very dated IMHO. I liked the revised and much improved display, coupled with keeping the button array which I found much nicer to use than the over complicated twin touch screens in a Velar. The showroom car was in the new Dolomite Silver metallic with pebble/agate leather and the new 21" turbo wheels, which actually looked really nice I thought. The White demo car had the new 21" inch spyders.

Loved those 21” 911 Turbo wheels on my Panamera. :)

One thing which has carried over is that ridiculous lower plastic lip on the front end. I think it's standard on older models as well but goes when you opt for the sports design kit. Sorry is it just me or does that thing just need to be binned?! If you go for a new Macan opt for the sports design kit!
