The Macan is my fun car. For long highway rides or hauling trash I have a lightly used 12 year old BMW X3 with 140k miles.

It's a Macan. Just drive it. It's not a collectors item like a GT3 RS. At least I keep telling myself this...the struggle is real. Our 22 GTS has 21K on it already b/c my wife drives the he** out of it. But that's what it's for.

What are your overall experience/thoughts on using the macan/s for daily driving and to put so many miles on?

2017 Macan with 140k miles here. My wife was putting on 20-30k miles/year on it initially. It's been great, except for the fact that it ate two turbos early on in its life (both covered under warranty).
