Same. Just needs the Polestar treatment (not that Polestar chip tune nonsense).

No head to head review sides with you here. When pitted against the GTS, the price differential starts to make sense.

The GTS tops it, trust me. Yes it’s more. And it outperforms the X3. Fit and finish blow the X3 away too. It’s just a better product, and although it’s more $, dollar for dollar, it’s arguably worth it.

The Macan? Any Porsche can hit the stratosphere, but with full leather, sport chrono, and a few extra goodies, it’s no bad at all. I agree though, once you get into the $90k range, there might be better options (I’m looking at you AMG wagon and GLC63).

Agree, the X3 is a bit of a let down in the design department, but it still looks decent, and with a tune, it’s a beast. The B58 is a fabulous engine so far

I drove the X5M. Almost went for it. But no, circles are specifically something it isn’t great at. It handles really well for a giant SUV, but it’s no Macan.

I specifically remember that lol. If you find the link, please share.

Lol. They are a big selling point for sure. PITA to keep clean though...

Great car. I would take it over the X1 or X2 definitely.

No, but they’re close.

My wife is only 5’2”, so it works on her side. She swims in the front seat. This car is not for tall people, for sure

Full sized SUV? Not so much. But a crossover? It’s a world of difference, trust me.

Over the XC60?

Yeah, I’m 6’, but my wife is only 5’2” ish, so we were able to put the rear facing on that side (it’s actually her car). But if we were both tall, or the kids were much older, it wouldn’t be ideal at all.

Yeah, we traded our F31 in for the Macan. We didn’t want a fcking crossover. Ever. But we also didn’t want a boring-to-drive wagon to replace our tuned Bimmer. And guess what? Reasonable to own, quick, fun to drive wagons come in exactly 0 flavors. Buick? Sorry, no balls there. V90? Call me when it has a Polestar…

How did we, and all the other Macan owners, do it?

It’s all relative. We have a rear facing and a front facing car seat, a small dog, and plenty of crap in the back. Easy enough to throw a clamshell up there too, but we haven’t needed one yet.

No clue. I have no regrets. Our GTS here.

Yes, every day, in every car I drive. Very important to me.

No. Maybe with literally every option checked, but even then, probably not. Otherwise, this is only slightly more than the C63S sedan.
