I just don't see a six figure vehicle when I look at the Macan.

Nice article and photos.  Makes me want to go east.
Wokeism is nothing more than the recognition and opposition of bigotry in all its forms.  Bigots are predictably triggered.

I'd say the same thing about most vehicles that start at < $60k.

I really enjoy these real-world articles where the car's utility is tested and its enabling factors are highlighted.  The Macan Turbo was completely more than you'd need, and in this case, was actually a little insufficient (in terms of interior space); that said, it is a nice driving companion and clearly capable of being driven sedately.  $110,000 is pricey, for sure, but it's a Porsche...I don't expect it to be cheap.

Thanks for the read!

Yup, nice area to visit in the future - too bad they didn't use a more realistic family vehicle for the trip.

I am planning a trip on the Cabot Trail in August.
Now if I could get an upgrade from Avis - Sonata to Porsche...
