A car buyer in China nearly escaped a ‘great fall’ after he drove a Volkswagen half-way out of a showroom window, located on one of the higher storeys of the building. The showroom salesperson let the customer have his way when he requested to hear the engine noise of the vehicle he was planning to purchase. Of course, what the customer didn’t notice is that the vehicle he was about to check was already in gear. As he started the engine, the car started rolling forward, eventually crashing out of the showroom window, but the customer applied the brakes just in time to stop the vehicle from falling off from several floors above ground level.

The Porsche Macan was announced only a few months ago, in the latest idea by the former sportscar-maker to move downmarket in order to better compete with crossovers like the Audi Q5. Ironically, it was also recently announced that Volkswagen now completely owns Porsche, so essentially the competition for female (and female-like) buyers will be in-house. Here are some photos of the upcoming Macan, caught hot-weather testing in Dubai.

We recently drove the Bentley Mulsanne, the company’s current flagship sedan. While an expensive car, it wouldn’t make much sense for the company to just build one variant on a bespoke platform. And that is why they’ve just announced the convertible version., if only in concept form.
