Macan Turbo Pricing
Discussion
Hey guys
My girlfriend is looking at the Macan Turbo and tried the 2017 one at HR Owen yesterday (on at £74k with just under 7k miles, every spec box ticked incl. 22" wheels, privacy glass, panoramic roof, etc).
Looking online it seems the depreciation for the top spec turbos seems to be about £1k per 1k miles (eg. there's a 2014 turbo with lower spec at £60k in Porsche Guildford with 20k miles on the clock).
My question is:
Are the apparently high residual values likely to drop off the cliff at some point, and when do you think that's likely?
Any guidance appreciated!

FWIW, my thoughts - I felt sorry for you no-one else replied!
I looked at a Macan on PCP recently, it's interesting that Porsche Finance assume it will have "normal" depreciation, e.g. a one year old car on a three year deal will be where any other car would be at four years old. This shows you what they think (they might just be conservative) - as an aside - it's actually therefore a relatively expensive car to buy used on PCP.
With the Panamera and Cayenne both now recently face-lifted and the new interiors a huge step-on I think the Macan now is starting to look dated.
Not sure where Porsche see the Macan in the product development cycle. I expect 911 will be next (maybe next summer?) and Macan after that so sometime end of next year, perhaps? With GTS and Turbo Performance Pack both now well-established that would also suggest this vintage of Macan is not much longer for this world.
So all that would point IMHO to prices likely being softer going forward from here than they were in the first few years of its life.

I agree with the comments above that pricing is likely to soften over the next year or so, with the new model on the horizon in late 18 early 19.
If I was going for a turbo I would definitely be looking at a performance pack car as the suspension and power updates alone are worth it let alone the other extras chucked in. Also due to being rare they are likely to hold value slightly better.

Have to agree with this, I have a PP Turbo and can honestly say what a complete package the car is, unbelievably fast from a standing start what with Launch control, but easy to live with on the mundane daily drive, theirs surly only a handful of PP cars around so there keep good residuals for sure.If I was going for a turbo I would definitely be looking at a performance pack car as the suspension and power updates alone are worth it let alone the other extras chucked in.
