I want the best range, so smallest wheels possible (I wish they'd offer 18- or 19-inch wheels). The faster acceleration of the Turbo just doesn't matter to me. The accleration of the Macan 4 (and CT4) are just fine, thank you. I'd rather save the money than make Porsche happier.

Hi Guys,

Took the plunge and Traded in my Taycan4 (sig pic) in Mamba Green for Macan4 in Ice Grey Metallic, decked it out with ~€16K worth of options (thank god the Macan options are way chaper than Taycan options), so we get below spec:

Opted for the Offroad Pack in paint color as well, looks pretty cool in my opinion. Rims kept standard as like them and do want max range.

Now the question - the Turbo doesn't seem that far off list price wise, and does include many options.

What's your take? Spend extra ~€18K and get the Turbo, or keep the Macan4?

Do you reckon (based on previous Taycan / Macan experience) that the Macan4 will do 0-100 in the 5.2sec specced, or below 5s?
As for me - I personally like the Turbo body kit less than the 4, plus I dislike fake air breathers on the rear, thankfully the 4 doesn't have them. So the question is really - pay more and get a faster accelerating Macan, but sacrifice on the looks, or keep the 4
As of last week i had ordered the 4s. switched to turbo. same range, but much more fun. this is the most astonishing car i ever drove. i have an ice macan turbo right now. but the ev turbo is something.
