A macan is just too much money for a DD appliance vehicle... they don't get much in terms of discunts and they are around 60-65 with the "standard" options that are sitting on the lots. That's a lot of money to blow on a tiny golf.

It's been over 3 months now since I drove my car for anything besides a few errands around town, it might have 250 miles on it in the past 90 days - I thought I'd miss driving but I really don't. Too many and plus too expensive to drive anything really fun.

So what have you been doing in the last 3 months ? I thought you drive "20k miles a year".troyguitar wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 3:07 pm It's been over 3 months now since I drove my car for anything besides a few errands around town, it might have 250 miles on it in the past 90 days - I thought I'd miss driving but I really don't.

3k on the and 2k on the :kamry: since 10/1.
Still fun, I miss the involvement of the C5 when the road opens up or has a turn and I'm in the Kamry.

I work at home and only really drive for trips or the 1 mile to the grocery store. Since the gets 20 mpg we take the wife's car on all trips - I've driven about 3k miles in that time and will do another 3k over the next 3 weeks, but none of it in my car.max225 wrote:So what have you been doing in the last 3 months ?

Used Macan does it all. Lifted man. All road, some off road and sport.Tarspin wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 2:11 pmA slightly used Golf R with DSG will do everything better for 30k.

True. You do not see that everyday. SO I guess do you listen to your inner - man and take the Jeep or take the yuppie badge and roll with a touch more comfort but can go offroad if needed. The Jeep panache/flair and a rugged look at the mall or with the Porsche, flashing the badge and keepin the plebe's in their place lol. Test both and go!max225 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 2:06 pmFunny you post this... a Macan S + Blows stereo is 58k, vs a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon which comes in at 53k equally equipped... now that's a cross shop you don't see every day.Davestr wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 1:57 pm Just get a Macan and do it all! https://jalopnik.com/the-2019-porsche-m ... 1830850009

Dat 12k paperweight. Sucks to just have a car and not use it at all. That's why I sold my C5 and decided 1 car solution is the one for me ...troyguitar wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 3:24 pmI work at home and only really drive for trips or the 1 mile to the grocery store.

Its a tough call for either one. Although does the Jeep hold value with the right package/configuration better than the Macan. Seems so???Tarspin wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 3:43 pmIn4 Macan off-road review Max!Davestr wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 3:38 pm

Maxs next car is as hard to guess as it is to win the lotto. One minute it's a Rubi, and the next thing you know the stock market tanks ten points and a 2015 C350 becomes the belle de jour! It's one of the more lively DFD topics. We need a powl!

Macan currently holds value quite well, as they are selling like hot cakes. Any non-loaded jeep holds value well also. The issue is I want a "loaded" version, which unless if "kept forever" creates an egregious financial situation if unloaded within the timeframe >2 years.

You should hire to drive you around instead of owning a vehicle.max225 wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 4:56 pmMacan currently holds value quite well, as they are selling like hot cakes.

The C350 would be from 2008-12. No such thing as a 2015 C350... that's the new gen which costs around 20k... The markets do dictate what I drive. Why wouldn't they? a big portion of my income is tied to them.
