Gtss
Hilarious intro + tHe SwEeT sPoT + color-matched seat belts = top tier StraightPipes review
I loved it
What an amazing and "sweetspot" intro
Sweetspot-ception?
I have a 2017 Macan GTS & your review of it back then was the final factor in purchasing one. I have had some awesome vehicles over the years but this one is by far the best all around for comfort, practicallity and handling. What I didn't expect was over 50,000 miles of zero problems. The most reliable vehicle I have owned. Keep it up Porsche!
You are lucky, man. My 18 gts has coolant leak and timing cover oil leak...
@@TheRacingShawn What a bummer! I still have almost 2 years of extended warranty remaining but hoping I don't have to use it..
I'm lucky to own a '14 Cayenne GTS since new and it is definitely the most reliable car I've seen. 70k of city miles and the only things to have been fixed were the A/C and the suspension air bag (which tends to leak after 8 years of pothole treatment). German quality or Porsche quality? Maybe both. I've brought my '21 Volvo in the shop more than that
I’m looking at buying a 2017 one I found. Would u recommend or would I end up spending a lot on repairs?
TheStraightPipes is the sweet spot of automotive reviews. And not even joking, it really is.
Thanks we try. GTS PIPES
they need to argue less though kinda getting annoying now
@@avip9 always been annoying. They’re my last resort when it comes to car reviews.
This is the sweetest of the sweetest of the sweet spots and the evolution keeps going. GTS is the perfect trim for Porsche vehicles.
The “sweet spot” editing is hilarious 😂 love you guys reviews
22 GTS owner checking in. I bought it for the performance. It handles like a sports car and sounds like one. Almost as fun to drive as my GT4
I was in NYC and 9/10 Macans we saw were base or S trims. Rare to see a GTS and when you do, it’s the previous gens. This GTS is for the driver. We just sent in our build for the 2023 GTS allocation in November! We have also watched this video 1000 times
I just realized you guys are like the perfect match as content providers. Yuri brings the video editing, photoshop skills, drone skills, Segway skills, and camera skills, and Jakub brings his experience driving the Ring!
This video is a sweet spot of car reviews!
Took delivery of this last year in Dec in Aus and put it on a track two months later. Sooo good. And I’m a parent 😎
bro can i learn whatever u do for a living ? i want to be able to afford gts tooooo
1:14 *I LOVE* how you synced "sweet spot" with everyone LOL
I have a GTS and absolutely love it!! Door sills are scratched and so is the trunk. But you have to abuse it a little bit to get the most out of it!! :)
Love your channel and the content you guys do!!
What does cheap surface on high traffic areas of a vehicle have to do with getting the most out of it? I assume by that you meant performance?
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again- when I become financially well off I will be buying myself a preowned Cayenne or Macan. Porsche just knows how to make a practical sports machine.
Preowned? Don't forget that bumper to bumper warranty buddy, or you will no longer be financially well off after that car is done with you!
@@MikeKayK CPO Porsches have great warranty’s.
@@coejbee Well then maybe one is in my future as well, always wanted a Porsche myself!
I got a GTS '22 and I use the Sport mode when cruising alone and Sport+ when "having a bit of fun" driving. The Sport mode actually sounds better when driving, burbling more. Using the paddles on B-roads (and when Sport+ respone is wanted but it keeps a gear to low). It's the Macan GTS because Driving is fun, and the baby demands the space.
No , you don’t. Do a video to prove it.
@@mike1567 bro people like you are real messed up. Why should he have to put a video to prove it lmao
Tbh I’ve seen that a lot sport is like the real sport plus lol
@@mike1567 ratio little kid
I have a very serious question.
As a gts owner how has maintenance been with other previous porches in your experience? Also how much did your GTS price wise it came too?
I'm asking because I own a car fleet of rentals and I'm expanding to more higher end because I love cars and I've always wanted to own at least two proches.
I'm waiting for 2023 models.
Hello Straight Pipes! Recently we bought a 2022 Macan GTS in volcano grey. I can confirm that we drive it like a sports car and we bought it for the performance 😂👍😄
Pshhhhhh -yuri
Yuri i have to agree with Jakob. I own a macan and I notice them EVERYWHERE especially living in oakville.. this is every soccer moms choice but no gts .. mostly S and the base I rarely spot GTS. In dt Toronto they're a bit more prevalent but there's an abundance of S
Knew it
have a '22 S - it's spec'd up past the entry price of the GTS - an equivalently spec'd GTS would have only set me back another 7-8k, but did not feel the extra power from the same platform was worth it. I also wanted it to be as comfy as possible (so 10mm lower/stiffer in all settings was not ideal). Final decider was that i didn't want black pipes/window surrounds on a dark grey car (not a fan of all blacked out look) Love my S - it's faster than i can really use on the street and drives on a cloud when just tooling around town. Best car i have ever owned, by far
The difference between "s" and "gts" is night and day. And if you don't know that, then you must be suffering from insensitivity.
@@Warrior11117have you ever own a Porsche S ?
Loved the review was spot on! Had a GTS 2018 and loved it!
I’m happy the topic of ‘how common is this car’ was talked about in this video. I personally wouldn’t enjoy paying that much for a vehicle if i would see it around every corner like BMWs and Mercedes
A Porsche GTS is always a kind of a special offer. Max popular options bundled with a increased performance for a package price. The price is in the upper mid range between Carrera S and Turbo but they keep their value extremely good.
I think you guys have the perfect sponsor for a car program. Normally I hate ads mid vid, but here it's just informative and it's brief.
Thanks! They are the best
I bought my 18 GTS for the handling & performance. Every time I get into it I fall in love all over again.
Your Channel is the Sweet-Spot of car reviewing. WE love it!!!
Thank you
Yuri's impersonation of the high end exhaust sound was spot on lmao
i took delivery of my 2022 macan GTS 2 weeks ago and I LOVE IT!! best daily car.
the intro is goated!! love you straight pipes!!!
Our 2022 Miami Blue Macan GTS with Sport Plus and PTV+ Came in took it on an all day road rally it is fantastic fast exhaust sounds great and handling is impressive!
Your video was both informative and entertaining; sorta the 'sweet-spot' in reviews. Also, CX-5 in red, great choice! I'm python-green with envy.
I just bought a 2017 Macan S because of your videos. I didn’t use the link and I feel bad about that, it was at my local dealer. Thanks for the videos though!! I’m in love with the car
A sweet spot I dream to one day own, you guys always deliver
Upgrading from a 2018 gts to a new 2023 gts. This is the only car i have bought twice. It’s that good for a daily in michigan. My spec is the same as your tester but in Daytona gray exterior, still green inside. Could have picked it up sooner but i didnt want to change out the wheels which were on back order.
i realy enjoy your channel to see car reviews 👍🏻
Which roads do you guys do your test drives on? Would love to explore them on the weekends.
I have a Macan GTS and it definitely regularly gets the manual mode treatment.
My mum ordered back when the 2022 Facelift released a Carrera white metallic GTS mainly for the feel, she has had a Lexus NX prior to the GTS and she has wanted a sports car but with the practicality of a SUV, our auntie has a Macan GTS and my mum always loved it, she has had hers for around 5 and a half months and she continually pushes it when she gets the chance, pulling on C63 AMG’s and M3’s at the lights up to the speed limit.
Damnnn
Hahah that intro alone deserves a like!! The SWEEEEEETSPOT :p
That Doug clip got my heart rate up
ordered my 2023 gts end of may... will get it in october if im lucky.. thx for the review fellas
Well it's quite nice how much you respect other creators and it is always nice to watch your videos, though I'm from India but just being an enthusiast.
The video editing here is the sweet spot of vehicle journalism
Great review! Could you please also give feedback on the audio system quality in your reviews?
Your thumbnail for this vid is HILARIOUS!!
Can't wait - Should be getting my 2023 Macan GTS in October (allocation confirmed) !!!!!
Definitely need to review all of Porsche's GTS
You photo shopped the front bumper on the cover picture looks insane 🙌🏼👌🏼🔥
My mom has a 2019 S without sport exhaust and sport chrono and the air suspension is amazing but the motor is a compelte letdown. Not sporty at all. What a shame and no wonder they dont use that single turbo v6 anymore. Does not sound good at all and when you donwshift at lower speed it feels like the engine is suffering. Mahagoni Brown with beige interior is definetly recommended though XD
I love the Lexus F-Sport redesign you guys did for the thumbnail.
shout out to jakub's sweet watch collection
i feel like he's amassed a good one
rolex two tone, sweet spot
2022 Porsche Macan GTS looks great inside & out ! Slainte' ! Cheers !
lol i thought yuri said They are going for the G spot 😂😂😂
The G Wagon spot 😏
One of the reasons i sold the 2020 Macan was the PCM system. It was slow to connect to CarPlay, and it did not make use off the real estate of the screen.
It is slightly annoying they did not update the pcm like the 911, taycan, cayenne and panamera .
But if you do not care about technology, this is a dream to drive :)
The manual mode can be initiated at any time by just tapping the paddles, however, the only way to turn it off is by pressing the "M" button.
Source: Just bought the GTS.
Great review as usual!
Ya jakub meant the manual mode that won’t kick back into auto
I love the clear taillights. They are an option...of course. Everything is with Porsche.
I'm waiting for the upcoming EV Macan. I want the Taycan GTS Sport Turismo but taller, so I'll wait for the GTS trim of the EV Macan.
I believe the clear taillights are standard on GTS models
Standard on GTS
Hey S.Pipes. I have a 2021 GTS (loaded)...bought it myself...I'm 42, my 1st Porsche...I have a good job and work hard. OK, so I am a driver...I ring it out every time I drive and my wife isn't with me. Probably pissing off my neighbors big time. I hate paddle shifters so I almost never go in manual mode...the PDK is so damned good. BUT even in auto mode you can hit a paddle and force a shift. I do this often if I'm expecting to get on it to pass or do something on the highway....or if it is stuck in a low gear after flooring it and I want to drop the RPMs a bit. I will be getting the new GTS when my lease is up. I have been waiting for this video...thx!
❤️
*Wife just got a 2024 Macan S in Chalk color. Love it!*
This 2.9L biturbo V6 that you find in the Audi S6, S7, RS 4, and RS 5 is just amazing in this car~
Love it!! one of the best looking SUV in the world
That price delta between starting price and reasonably equipped is crazy
That intro was dope. And funny.
I like the more obtainable car reviews but understand reviewing the crazy stuff when you’ve got the chance.
We just chasing views
I drove by that green Cayman last night, it's on Parkside Drive. What a coincidence! :D
this intro LOL - epic boissss
Getting my 2023 spec GTS on September 23rd , goina be awesome , been waiting over 12 months 😳
Really Good video
Aventurine Green Metalic on 992 911s is a phenomenal color. It color shifts between a nice green and grey depending upon the lighting situation. I went with Aventurine Green Metalic for my 992 C4S. I was not even thinking of green "I was going to go grey or chalk" until I seen the Aventurine Green Metalic in person.
GTS = only Macan I like this year! I do agree with your guys’ comments on the front end though lol
Does anyone know if Porsche equips the Macan and the Cayenne with totally digit driver's display?
Great work! Love the Macan GTS. Awaiting for you guys to review the 2022 Audi RS3
You'll be waiting forever. Not coming to Canada
Love the sweet spot montage 😂
Gotta love the sweet spot!
So the manual button on the steering wheel just started in the 2021?
Great videos guys!
Yes, my mom bought one of these. And yes, she has no idea it’s fast. She bought it mostly because it’s the top trim. I’m actually the one who spec’d it. You’re absolutely right lol
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ -yuri
beautiful and powerful car
Ok, you hose heads got me to buy my 2018 BMW M3 CS in Lime Rock Grey, which I sold due to COVID. Now you're going to cost me money on this Python GTS, which I just put a deposit on! You hose heads! Take off, aye!
There are not GTS everywhere. Just admit your wrong. Buying because it’s fast and a drivers car
My father has one on order because its fast, medium sized and "easy to get into" compared to his S3... lol
WTF thats literally your 6th Macan review!!
Oh and also... now that Yuri has a new Mazda CX 5, i think Jakob should buy a Volvo V60 Cross Country wagon. Now thats A sweet spot :))
Shoutout porsche for providing so many great cars. Still hoping to review an integra one of these days 😜
@@TheStraightPipes I still think that you should review a Volvo V60 wagon. You already did the Polestar 2 years ago, but now you should do the Cross Country version, which is more of a luxury trim since the Polestar is more of a perfomancy plug in hybrid trim.
Don’t think Jakub would buy a FWD biased car in a class that offers so many RWD biased cars… Chyba, że się mylę Jakub? 😬
Caranddriver mentioned the new Macan GTS having less steering wheel feedback than before, have you guys noticed any difference in steering feel?
I bought my GTS for the performance and use it that way all the time
is there a TSP true car for canada? It only allows you to input a zip code. Is there really a way to get a discount on a Macan S in Canada?
My GTS is scheduled for delivery later this month. Definitely bought it for the performance!! If performance wasn't a concern I would have bought a bigger and more useful SUV. The Macan GTS is as close as I could get to an RS4 Avant or C63S amg wagon
My mom has a '22 GTS and it's simply amazing. She didn't buy it just cause it's the top trim, she wanted something faster or just as fast as her Cayman but she needed more space. So she got the Macan GTS. The only thing that I really don't like is the soft limiter at 3.5k RPM - the only way I found to bypass it is to let the car roll and put it in neutral.
My ‘21 GTS doesn’t limit at 3200RPM… no limit revving all the way to redline. It’s fu king awesome!
yah Porsche has great greens. My favorite is the Nato Olive, preferably on a GT3 touring :)
Looked like a ford puma a little bit with that facelift😬
Questions incoming: 1. In the 2021 GTS and Turbo, isn’t it the same motor just detuned in the GTS? Does the turbo parts/tuning/everything fit the GTS? (New to the Macan so I’m asking these questions and I’m looking to get one).
I bought that exact color 2022 Macan GTS Python Green for my wife (surprise gift) all the way from Woodland Hills and drove it to Bay Area (home) roughly 350 miles all with manual shifting and mostly sport suspension settings. Absolute fun beast but my wife would never use the pedal shifters lol
Does she know it’s fast
@@TheStraightPipes Yes lol. When I pulled into the driveway with the surprise, she hated the color but once she drove it the next day and getting many compliments on the color, she loves it now lol
Can you guys please do a 2013-2014 Shelby gt500 review? Or a 2003-2004 cobra?? It’d be hella dope to see these mid era killer cars on the channel.
This is the perfect car for me. It's the only car I would actually buy if I was rich. It's fast, it's sexy, it's comfortable, and it fits the entire family...
That car is gorgeous. Front and back is lovable.
I bought one, I use it in Manual Mode, and mine came with Pirelli P zero Corsas in Houston... its quick.
Y’all really had me on that thumbnail 😂
It looked way tougher with the smaller wheels and higher profile tires
Funny review. It seems like a lot of car for the money! I can't tell if the front end annoys me but it looked better on some of those earlier models it looks like you reviewed.
Porsche really don't change the look of their cars. This and the 911 look 95% the same as they do 10 years ago
That's the idea
I am just waiting for another apple carplay vs android auto from you guys. Still remember the first time watching that video when I was in the Android squad back then. Now that carplay has improved so much I wonder how do they still compare.
That green color 😍 👌
I just had an extended test drive to compare the Macan S to the Macan GTS. Other than not offering 20 inch wheels in the GTS, the increased horsepower is just not noticable.
Holy crap. I just realized you photo shopped the 2021 GTS bumper in the thumbnail…
