That said even a tricked out SUV like X3M does not replace a well sorted car when it comes to driving pleasure so I will still be buying cars in the future.
My father recently got a Macan S after driving sedans his entire life. The Boxster/Cayman were too difficult for him to get in and out of and the Panamera is too expensive. Macan is all that was left from Porsche at a reasonable price point. It drives well for a CUV but definitely not as fun as a car that sits lower.

I wish they'd make a mid-size sedan slotted below the Panamera.
