What a perfectly awful name for a reasonably good looking SUV.

Porsche Toucan Sam
|
Hey, Tiguan and Touareg are also weird names ..... VW's influence is alive and well in Stuttgart
|
Absolutely! Someone in Marketing needs to be slapped in the head.
|
It embodies the suppleness, power, and wheels of a cheap drug dealer's car looking thing.
|
Lol!
|
One of Porsche's spokespeople just told me it was pronounced: (mah•khahn)
|
Hate on it all you like, they're going to sell a crap load of them.
|

I'm interested - I like Cayennes, but they are bigger than I need, but I still would like to keep the AWD (I have a CRV now). I really like the looks of the Audi Q5s (which is what they are basing the Macan on), so I think it will be sharp looking. I'll have my order in.

The 944 of the suv's.....
|
AZ_porschekid, believe it or not when 944's came out they were pretty darn cool looking and performing. They sold like hotcakes.
My wife had an Infiniti FX-35 when they came out. Ran good, looked totally different but was rough as hell with those 20 inch wheels. She has had a G-35 which they have not altered for 5 years. She wants another SUV but not another Infiniti. This looks real promising. She never like the looks of the Cayenne front end or may have gone for one of those. |
i kinda like it.
i kinda like it alot. if i buy one, i'll start a debadging thread. :) |
Great idea. Just tell people you bought a Porsh SUV and let it go at that. :)

What happened to "Cajun?"
All that ad and just a single shot at the end of a rough sketch of the vehicle? I remember a joke Jay Leno made the marketing ploys used when the Lexus and Infiniti lines first launched 20+ years ago. Something along the lines of Lexus outselling rival Infiniti by a margin of 2:1. "And in an unrelated news story, sales of rocks and trees are way up!" |
It was going to be the Cajun but the Germans could not pronounce Cajun for beans.

all they need is a pickup truck and something that seats 4 with a 3 cyl engine and they can be everything to everybody...
Oh, and maybe a touring bus would be nice. A shame actually... rjp |

|
it my native tongue Mccan roughly translates into "come here"

In the Balkans, Macan means kitten
