never saw the attraction to SUVs, we have a couple of audi wagons which do the job.

I'm not a SUV person but thought Macan looked ok in pics but thought otherwise in person.

To me Macan, q5, Routan all look like they're geared towards females just like the new beetles, no offense. My $.02

I drove a Macan S in Europe a few times last fall. They are very nice. They aren't big. My wife drives an Audi SQ5 which is essentially built on the same platform, and it's actually bigger than the Macan.

It's a nice vehicle, but it's no 911!

I concur. I don't know about you but the slope in the back seems a tad too aggressive. If it didn't slope as much in the back, it would look better IMO.
