Finally went and test drove one of the 23 SQ5’s I was interested in and I’m impressed! Coming from a 700hp Mustang this thing felt great to drive. Very comfortable, smooth and the power in it felt great. This was the exact kind of car I was looking for as my practical dad car lol Hoping to pull the trigger this week if I can get my car sold privately!
Was looking to get rid of my supercharged mustang for something a little more practical, but still fun to drive. I was originally looking at a Porsche Macan, but I would be way in over my head with that lol I then came across the SQ5 and I love the way these look and sound. But, I’ve seen a lot of complaints for problems like water pump, engine mounts, etc. Are these issues really that common? I don’t mind paying a little more for maintenance, but don’t want to drive something that’s a ticking time bomb. I’m specifically looking at the 21-24 SQ5’s. I drive less than 10k miles a year and the ones I’m looking at are under 30k miles. Let me know your thoughts and opinions. Thanks in advance!
TLDR: How reliable are the 21-24 SQ5’s?
Looking to buy my first Porsche and need help. This would be my first high line car and I was looking at a 21 Macan GTS with 37k miles. The carfax shows it was maintained very well. I have a supercharged mustang I was looking to sell because as much as I love it I’m a dad with 2 kids so it’s just not practical. I like the look of the Macan and from reviews I’ve seen the GTS is the one people like the most. How is the reliability on these and how bad is the maintenance costs? I make about $130k a year and I know maintenance isn’t cheap I just don’t want it to be a money pit. Anything I should look out for or things I should know? Thank you in advance!
Edit: This would be my daily driver, but I only drive about 7k miles a year.
Edit 2: Here’s the link for the carfax if there’s anything notable to point out

Can’t take it anymore and decided I’m switching back to xfinity. Absolute joke for my WiFi to be out for 3 days straight now. Tried contacting support and they tell me it should be back within 24 hours and that was 48 hours ago 😑 The support person then has the audacity to try to upsell me on upgrading my internet like mf you guys can’t even fix my internet in a timely matter and you want me to give you more money gtfo. Verizon’s support page and support service is a disgrace.
Can someone please tell what to do (and don’t say get a cat)? I’ve tried everything I can think of snap traps, sticky traps, electric traps, those plugin sound emitters, poison bait, and spray repellents. Nothing has worked and I’m tired of this thing showing up every day in my house. I wear rubber gloves when I set the traps and it just has 0 interest in going near them (I’ve used peanut butter, peanuts, marshmallows, and granola bars). I got so desperate to the point where I got the mouse trapped in my living room and put up an entire line of sticky traps to block his only exit only to watch it just jump right over them lol someone please tell me how to get rid of this damn thing. I’ll also point out that I live in a twin home and my neighbor gets this mouse as well and they’ve called an exterminator on 3 separate occasions and have yet to get anything.
