I agree with the fast statement, but I have driven mind numbing boring POS SUV's and I have driven SUV's that are fun to drive.

Handling and road feel are important. If you don't need a third row, or huge storage capacity, the Macan S is an awesome choice.

Definitions of fun are important too. My first Exploder was a fun SUV, but the highway ride was not the fun part. It was a 2 door, 5 speed manual. The angle of approach and decent (distance from axle to bumpers) let me have a lot of fun with it off road. Might not have been as much fun as a Jeep Wrangler off road, but I could keep up with them. My Exploder took me places 99% of SUV's have never been
