Yeah, I didn't want to be age-ist.

That dude looks to well put together to have all that grey. I think they used a younger guy and made him look older.

Back on (somewhat) original topic. Our TDI is crossing 60k with still no mechanical issues and only 10k oil changes... EPA/CARB issues are another story and a sore one. We love the car as it is, but cannot refuse a $21k offer for a 4yr old car with 60k as opposed to $6k and an uncertain future. Then again, crushing/scrapping this well-running car for "environmental" reasons?

Anecdotally, they seem to be selling well. I took the X5 in for an Invisihitch install (the HQ is near ATL) and the owner said he was inundated with requests to develop a hitch for them--especially from his longtime BMW customers.

The macan is very good to drive. I'm pretty sure I posted that when I test drove one (the S, not the turbo). Best suv/crossover I've driven by far, ever. That said, my b8.5 s4 was still better to drive and had as much interior space for passengers and marginally less trunk.
