    Refreshing to see a CZcamsr make a video on a relatable real life experience. Most CZcamsrs be on here capping trying to normalize having a m5, Shelby gt500 and a hellcat in the same garage. All while nodding them to 1,000HP

    I loved my Macan S! I feel like this car is slept on by the car community. I did a Cobb stage 1+ tune, throttle commander, MBRP exhaust, air box mod with k&n filters, H&R lowering springs, 22” wheels, and a full red interior swap. I learned some things while owning it that I am happy to share:
    - Tune is 100% worth it. Stage 1+ is decent. To do dps (and stage 2), it’s an engine out process!
    - Lowing springs didn’t seem to make the ride any worse! The 22” wheel killed the ride. Avoid those.
    - The MBRP exhaust is essentially a muffler delete. It sounded amazing, maybe the best sounding car I’ve owned. However, it did drone. I’d recommend a valved exhaust or an exhaust dump with a valve.
    - Two common issues with the macans that may not apply to your year: (1) Timing chain covers like to leak from the aluminum bolts breaking. The transfer cases can go if you don’t change the fluid.
    I did some autocross events in my macan on all seasons and for an suv it really didn’t do bad. I wasn’t the fastest but it was fun.
    Congrats on the new car and let me know if you have any questions and what I put above!

    • @WhatsyourForte
      @WhatsyourForte  Před 6 měsíci +1

      Thank you for this info… the car definitely needs more sound and I want a valved exhaust as well to be able to control the loudness. Thank you again for this info

      LG - thanks for sharing your experience, what year is your Macan, and how reliable was it before the tune and after the tune? I owned a Cayenne S , with the V8. After I had the issue with the transfer case it was sold all the way to 140K miles. I was the original owner and I did all the preventive maintenance and required maintenance.

    Awesome buy man! I love those cars. Those macan's definitely get overlooked because people are too concerned about M cars and hellcats and plaids lol. And while those cars are insanely fast, they don't have the prestigious background of a porsche. That german engineering. With those miles and that year, i think it's a good find for anyone looking for a nice, sporty quick SUV!

    • @WhatsyourForte
      @WhatsyourForte  Před 6 měsíci

      Well, most of my mods are free or heavily discounted due to my affiliate deals I have built. I sold the mods to get rid of the negative equity on the car and broke even to get rid of the car. Buying a house is more of a debt to income ratio game with the bank, so I needed to get rid of the car. Buying the Macan saves me over $650 a month and no way I could have done that with the M5. I did the math and it would not have worked out

    • @WhatsyourForte
      @WhatsyourForte  Před 6 měsíci

      Also I did not spend half of the cars value in mods. My mods MSRP is like $20k I prob paid about $9k out of pocket. But I made $15k from the sale of my G80 M3 so still in the positive.

      lol I guess they don’t make suspension, down pipes, turbo upgrades, charge cooler upgrades, wheels, carbon fiber bits, exhaust systems, intakes, tunes or any of the parts on the fabspeed, APR, or flat 6 Motorsport website. Those must be fake parts😂. They literally make every single mod for this “random” SUV that was offered on the M5. But that’s why he’ll retain and gain people with this platform. BMW guys gravitate to Porsche and then there’s the clueless people that don’t know either world….. Respectfully

      @@WhatsyourForte no didn’t lol. I just found out they don’t make that stuff for this random SUV. And here I was thinking the Macan was some type of “sports car of the SUVs”. Not like Porsche literally calls it that and all the “big” CZcamsrs and journalists consign it….. oh snap. No. All of that is true 🤯🤯🤯. Omg a random horrible opinion almost made me think the Macan was lame. My bad lol
