If your wife loves and is accustom to the Audi Infotainment system, a Macan is absolutely a no brainer. (Personally I prefer BMW over anything by VW.) I see so many chicks driving the Macan... which has somehow become the new SUV/SAV/CUV of choice - a place once held by the Lexus RX. (IMO)

So far we looked at the Macan (Non-S), X2 & X3, and the Infinity Q50.
For her I was kinda diggin' the Q50 with all the techy creature comforts.
She like the Macan (Cause its a Porsche)
Funny,

Any thoughts?...................

Sorry Hoss, XC60 is a serious #fail #maintenancenightmare #crapshow. I wouldn't wish that POS on anyone.

Tru Dat - Infiniti. WTF is up w/ them? I like the looks of the '19 QX50. Spent a week behind the wheel of 2018 QX50 on the coast of CA last fall, great engine - but the WORST Infotainment system of any. Anyone coming from an Audi or BMW would be in pure hell w/ that shit. (IMO)

You sir, are wise beyond your years!
