Thanks for this. Never been a Merc guy but I will need to give the GLC43 a close look.
If you?re looking at that sort of thing throw the new Jag and the XC60 that just came out into the mix too.

That said the Macan is tough to beat.

I looked at the F Pace and was not impressed with the interior. The new XC60 does look very nice though and is worthy of consideration.

I personally don't care for the Macan. I realize I'm likely in the minority, but the space and utility just isn't there, options are absurdly priced, lease rates are bad, and the parade of buttons on the console just don't work for me. I've had a 981 Cayman S and 991 Carrera S, and the console arrangement makes more sense in those cars but not in an SUV. And visually, the Macan just looks off to me. Personal preference.

My father picked up the same deal. The summer of Audi event.
