A good idea? A bold one – for sure.<\/p>\n
In the first year of ownership, 120-200 thousand UAH easily flies in there. And not on fuel, just so you know.
\nThere will be somewhere for it to go – provided a sane engine, which you still have to find.
\nSort out some fogging, brakes all around, a couple of control arms – get your money ready, or don’t step onto this warrior’s path.<\/p>\n
Once you start searching, you’ll be stunned how little is left of the Porsche in something that still wears the golden badge.
\nWant a hood made of foil, headlights from AliExpress? Exactly.
\nFinding a sane option in this budget with signs of life, without deployed airbags and geometry restoration – that’s the baseline you then verify at a service center. Not the other way around.<\/p>\n
One of the few options worth checking at a service center had a single solid oil puddle underneath. Pull the engine, repack everything, pour money into the suspension – on paper the estimate was 400+ thousand UAH. And that’s before we even got into the engine.
\nWe continued the search.<\/p>\n
This American has been on the road for a month now – and we can finally write up the search story, phew.
\nPorsche Macan S, 3.0T. Sold by the owner who imported and restored it himself. The whole restoration comes with service records – you see the full list of work done. That’s valuable.
\nA frontal hit that somehow kept the original hood through the repair, even without a repaint.
\nThe bumper was saved too, though there’s still plenty to play with ahead.
\nThe car is a 2017 from a California dealership, 1 owner, a hundred km on the clock.
\nThe condition of the body and interior is just out of this world.
\nThe level of satisfaction with the purchase – intergalactic.
