So I’m cleaning my cars yesterday and, whilst I’ve not noticed before, the tailpipes on the Macan are huge, they look like something from a modified Supra from the 90’s. It makes my M6 (competition pack with M sports exhaust) look like a Fiat 500 Abarth with those 4 little pea shooters poking out the rear.
So being a bit of a numbers nerd, I had to get the tape-measure out. The verdict, 105mm vs 80mm, and if my recollection of my formula is correct, that makes the size of tailpipes c70% larger on the Macan.
In all honesty, the difference in size looks more!
Size matters?
Isn’t it c30% larger? 80 + 30% = 104?PJV997 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 12, 2023 9:22 am So I’m cleaning my cars yesterday and, whilst I’ve not noticed before, the tailpipes on the Macan are huge, they look like something from a modified Supra from the 90’s.
