    The stop-start gets MUCH smoother after 6 months or so. The Turbo is TRANSFORMATIONAL... a near super car in performance and handling. Feels like 50% more power than the S. If you have 4 people of average height in the car the room is fine in back. But it really is a car mainly for 2 people and luggage. Too small for 4 large people on a long trip with luggage. Too small for the HUGE prams and kids car seats these days, which seem to have 2x in size since I had mine decades ago! Perfect for say 3 year olds and older though. 14 way seats are the way to go. Side bolsters on the 18 way seats make it hard to get up an over them and into the seat if one is short of leg! Surprised Porsche reliability is so bad in UK. Consumer Reports and others in the USA rate most models above average. Maybe it’s the diesels?

    Is the bulge by the transmission tunnel a bigger or smaller issue on cars with left-side steering? I mean, the pedals are mirrored in the well, so what difference if any does that make? Anybody here driven a Macan with the steering wheel and pedals on the left side?

I was struggling with what to buy and spent time at BMW and almost even got a Etron - but the Macan took me 10 min and I was signing papers! no regrets, very nice to drive and fun in the corners! Lots of little surprises, like if you hit the gas hard, it seems to go into some sort of "sport" mode, and holds your shifts longer so you can hit the ideal RPM band. So much not documented, but really nice features to have.... I REALLY like this Macan S, with the new interior to me its near perfect....

    Doug, please tell all your colleague and other auto journalists, and start pronouncing the word Macan correctly. The Porche baby SUV was named after the Asian Javanese Tiger, Macan from the Island of Java.
    The correct pronunciation is Machan, not Makhan. The "CA" sounds like Cha...cha...cha...not....khan like Aga Khan. Macan is not a German, nor English etc. word, but it's Sanskrit derived word.
