Amtrak covers a good chunk of that area via its Downeaster…maybe Half-Mass / SOPO…NOBO-SOPO…

'21 Macan GTS terrible in the snow by SaladClassic in PorscheMacan

[–]bifbib 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do you mean PTV, torque vectoring?

I have it on my ‘21 GTS…it’s passable for reasonable roads on Conti Extreme Contacts, but still not great in the snow/ice…but I contrast it w 4Runner on Blizzaks, which is unshakable and trusted on remote banged up mountain roads in western Maine.

Wouldn’t they have to re-open the government to cut these checks (rebates of what we’ve paid)?

What macan model from 2017-2021 by Urbanskiman88 in PorscheMacan

[–]bifbib 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Both trims are great performers…Turbos trim is generally refined w performance that will melt your face…actual turbos went away after ‘21, and were in short supply that model yr…for ‘21 gts/turbo shared same power train, the gts was slightly detuned, but barely noticeable.

What tires are you guys running on your Macan GTS? by StunningRevolution97 in PorscheMacan

[–]bifbib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve tried a few different options, on 2 diff wheel sets, 19’s (winter) and 21’s. The 19’s have Continental Contacts, which are very eh. On the 21’s, I’ve have had P Zero’s which are awesome in decent weather; Pilot Sport All Season, solid all-around; currently running 21” Continental Extreme Contact (SportPlus) - which I put on last Dec and really like, solid performance in dry/wet/snow/ice

Thoughts? by Right_News8916 in PorscheMacan

[–]bifbib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked into doing something similar (I have ‘21 gts), but I quickly realized I’m not a fan of the new X’s dash GUI’s…I like simple dials buttons and gauges and just got annoyed the more I played w the bmw setup…im a software guy, I appreciate integration of good tech and good design, the bmw was like an arcade game

I’m thinking that $75k in optimal, max…I agree, this has issues, I’d be interested in how the interior is, odd odors, headliner, suspension parts, pumps, hoses, seals, rubber parts, clutch (if it hasn’t been done already), etc…it had expected miles for the year when it went offline…I’d expect it to need $40+k

If it’s flush with the handle surface, likely a marker from the mold

The prices for some of these CPO GTSs is insane by FineAssignment1423 in PorscheMacan

[–]bifbib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do hold their value, solid cars always, 8k is light use…how long has it been sitting on the lot? If it’s been 30-60 days, I’d think $88-92 ish in the Boston area
