    Wasn't Expecting This!

    So I ended up trading in the Audi for a 2017 Porsche Macan. After having the Audi for 4.5 years I thought I would always be in the Audi family. Initially I was looking at upgrading to an s5 but after seeing the Macan and driving it for the first time, there was no going back.

    I get to enjoy my A4 for about 1.5 months before my custom order arrives . Since I had a unique colour for the A4, I continued the trend with Sapphire blue. Audizine has been a great community and resource for my mods, I hope the Macan forum is the same .

    That is an absolutely gorgeous color... I don't think anyone will fault you for trading up for that.

    Nce going! I love the look of the Macan, but it's way out of my budget. Maybe some day :)

    You're staying in 'the family' - so you're not really going anywhere. I've driven a Macan before, spectacular vehicle. It's amazing how it feels like it's bolted to the ground. Great choice all around!!!

    Thanks everyone!

    Yeah technically the same family. It definitely handles more like a car than an SUV. In pictures it looks small but when you actually see it in person it's got some size. I wasn't expecting the rear to be spacious but there's a lot more space then it looks like. The Porsche PASM suspension and PDK transmission are flawless. Porsche really hit it out of the park with this one. The wait is killing me though .
