But i love it because when we need to drive a bigger car the drop-off in driving experience is not as bad. The Toyota/Ford/GM SUV's and trucks are almost undriveable for me.

But I'm lucky enough to not be constrained to a single car so i have Macan + sports cars. If you don't have those constraints then i highly recommend 2+ cars. If you can only have one car there are some good recommendations in this thread
How has the Macan been as far as reliability? I'm really tempted to pull the trigger on an S, been doing a ton of research.
Let's see, 2 Macans in 7 years and iirc I've had two warranty trips, both for wonky sensors that threw various warning codes. That's it, nothing more.

I agree with the person above me that says maintenance is a bit expensive. One expense that you might not anticipate is how expensive the tires are and how frequently they'll need replacing. It's easy to forget you've got high wear rate, sticky rubber on there when you're driving a little crossover and not a 911
