Porsche Has Made A One-Off Macan With A 919-Style Motorsport Livery
I’m guessing none of you have looked at Porsche’s Macan SUV and thought: “Hey, you know what? That’d look great with a Porsche Motorsport Livery.” Regardless, Porsche Asia Pacific has whipped up exactly that, embellishing a Macan Turbo with a paint job inspired by the white, black, red and grey livery found on the 911 RSR and the retiring 919 Hybrid.
The reason for the curious move? Apparently it’s to “point out the sporting roots of the car,” although we’re really not sure how we feel about the results. Particularly as it looks rather odd without a bunch of sponsorship decals splashed across it.
What we think of it is fairly irrelevant though, as this isn’t something available to customers: it’s merely a quirky one off for Porsche Asia Pacific’s press fleet.
It’s finished off with a Performance Package from Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur, adding 39bhp and 36lb ft of torque to the 3.6-litre twin-turbo V6. This brings the total to a healthy 434bhp and 442lb ft.
What do you think of this thing?

And you couldn’t do this on a 911 because?
Weight reduction bro.
Because they already did
Things this Macan and the 919 have in common:
-the livery
-the terrain they drive on: tarmac
Savage
buy a Macan
get a Wrapper and tell him to wrap your Macan in the 919 Livery
???
Profit
Does Eminem count?
It looks like an NFS Carbon era custom car included in a Pre-order package…
Let Michael Scott show my thoughts…
A pig ugly car just got uglier.
I didn’t think Porsche SUV’s could get uglier…boi was I wrong
So are we going to see an Audi Q5 wrapped in the R18 E-tron livery?
try again 😈
I thought that a racing livery would be dope on a cayenne. not a macan, but pretty much the same thing
Don’t worry, you can drive it in Forza (look for Asia 919, livery by me) and it’s not terrible there :D
