    Porsche Hopes Macan Can Help Them Reach 200,000 Global Sales Next Year

      Porsche Is Going Macan Crazy!!

    Porsche is putting big expectations on their next vehicle, the Macan crossover. According to Bloomberg, Porsche CEO Matthias Mueller said that new the Macan will help the brand exceed 200,000 sales globally. That's three full years ahead of the brand's original goal.

    “We’re transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment. Porsche will remain a manufacturer of very exclusive premium cars,” said Muller at the start of Macan production.

    Since the Macan's debut at the LA Auto Show last year, demand from customers was very high. Reportedly in some European countries, the model has sold out. Porsche says if demand outstrips the supply, they will increase production beyond the 50,000 Macans being planned to be built at the company's Lepizig plant.

    Muller also hinted at the Macan getting a GTS model.

    "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche. We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense," said Muller.

      True they could have done better, but then if that is all they are loaned by the companies, who can you blame but the company who loaned a single stage to go up against a dual stage. Kinda like folks that compare dual pane to triple pane windows and complain about the cost without looking at the full picture. This comparison had some valid data but agree with you that it could have been a fairer comparison of like units. Makes one wonder if he clearly stated he wanted all dual stage units or just asked for a snow blower to compare.

      Hahaha they compared a $1700 two-stage Ego to two cheap, single-stage units. 200lb Ego vs 33lb Greenworks vs 47lb Worx. Why they wouldn't have at least tried Greenworks two-stage units is just plain stilly. Also, why not against another real unit in one of Toro's $1700 two-stage unit.  What a crap comparison.

      Tribute - invite - milestone

      By trinacriabob · Posted

      Very nicely written tribute for your late friend Phil.  We all need more folks like this in our lives. The cream colored Monte Carlo in the montage is beautiful.  The 1981 to 1986+/- coupe was a real uptick for the MC. Belated happy New Year from across the pond.  I'm enjoying the much slower rhythm so far and the people have been great.

      What Are You Listening To?

      No, I'm not going to weave in any Subaru jokes.  When anyone first hears this, they know it's a good song - it's sort of catchy - and the voice is stellar. But the trippy part is the black and white video itself showing a strange stage act in this grande dame type theater.  The people in the play look like something right out of a Jack Kerouac or John Steinbeck novel.  It all leaves you hanging as to how and why it may all fit together.
