I've got a deposit down for the next GTS , having already had the current model GTS I just hope they can make it as entertaining, otherwise il be looking for a nicely specced used model. The features of the facelift model are very appealing to me but the Audi sourced engines have taken the shine away!

I can see plenty of Macan owners driving this car and electing to keep their deposits dry for a GTS or a Turbo. By current fast 4x4 standards for straight-line shove, the Macan S just isn’t quite cutting it.
Will a facelift GTS, if there is one, give that much extra shove with the extra 10 or 20bhp? doubt it

Also on the list. However, as time goes on, I might end of keeping my current GTS. I cannot help but think the refreshed GTS will be available too near the the launch of the all-new second generation Macan. As nice as the GTS will be, I suspect it will be Porche's last hurrah to make a few sales on the first generation. On that basis, I'm not convinced I'd change to car that's based on a six to seven year old design, months before all all-new model arrives.

^^ Although it will likely be be last petrol Macan, which may or may not be a good thing! Probably very bad for depreciation. But maybe good if you plan to keep it a long time, and stick your fingers up at the world, as everyone else moves to electric cars!
