Description:
With a growing family the time has come to upgrade to a larger SUV, which is unfortunate as this is the single greatest vehicle my wife and I have ever owned. This car still shows nearly new aside from some minor scuffs on the wrap (I did my best to photo these as well as I could). The car was originally Night Blue Metallic and is wrapped Matte Agate Grey, the interior is Agate Grey full leather including the upper and lower dash and door panels. Most importantly it has the extremely hard to find Performance Package, "Costing $10,500 more than a regular Macan Turbo, the Performance package adds 40 hp and 36 lb-ft more torque, as well as 1.2-inch larger front brake rotors, air suspension, the Sport Chrono, and a sports exhaust." - Motortrend
This car also has PTV+ and most importantly Premium Package Plus which in my opinion is an absolute must for these cars. Optional thermally and noise insulated glass with ceramic tint over top keeps the cabin very cool in the summer months. June of 2022 the car went to Porsche Colorado Springs to have the timing cover resealed, at the same time they replaced both engine mounts, the drive belt and tensioner, and noted the A/C compressor needed replacement which has since arrived and been installed. Car is still cover by CPO protection until July of this year.
In preparation for sale I replaced all four tires about 1000 miles ago to make the vehicle as near new condition as I can. This car is honestly in the best condition I can reasonably expect a used car to be and should serve the next owner for many years with as many smiles as it has brought us, she will be desperately missed. Thank you for reading!

This new range-topping variant sits above the 400-hp Macan Turbo, getting an additional 40 horsepower and 36 lb-ft of torque from the twin-turbo 3.6-liter V-6. For the extra $10,445 that the bundle commands, the package also lowers the ride height by 0.9 inch, increases the claimed top speed by 5 mph (to 169 mph), adds a standard sport exhaust, fits the Sport Chrono package, and brings larger brakes up front. But it still doesn’t quite earn the full-blown Turbo S moniker. Porsche explains that one main omission keeps it from wearing that badge: standard carbon-ceramic brakes (these brakes are an $8150 option). Pretty pedantic, if you ask us.
Regardless, this Porsche sure does perform. At the test track, its 3.7-second zero-to-60-mph run and 12.4-second quarter-mile beat those of the already blistering Macan Turbo by 0.5 second each. Skidpad grip increases by 0.04 g to 0.93 g—although some of that improvement could be attributable to the earlier test using a Macan Turbo with an incorrect tire fitment of 295/35R-21 rubber all around. This 2017 model wore the correct, staggered setup, with 265/40R-21 tires in front and the 295s in the rear. Braking performance fell by three feet, but the Macan’s 153-foot stop still falls within the realm of what we expect from true sporting machines.

I’m currently waiting to hear on a GTS that just arrived on trade and whether the dealership will CPO. If so, I’ll likely follow that route. If not, I’ll get back in touch and maybe we can talk more on the phone.
Thanks for the follow through!
