Just wondering how the rear wheel drive version will ride and handle. Has anyone seen reports yet?

Believe all demo cars had the air suspension spec’d… hopefully more feedback in a month, the Macan are almost out!

I would skip it.

Heavy car and will ride much better on air.

Why purchase an SUV that isn't all wheel drive - seems pointless albeit cheaper.

The driver at Atlanta PEC agreed that upgrading from the base Macan to the 4 was well worth it, and more beneficial than upgrading from the 4 to 4S unless you need the additional acceleration.

I’m selecting the 4S rather than adding more performance options on the 4 since it was only about $4K more including the Macan S wheels and Surround View.
