I'm not against going for an f31 but I think the newest I could get is 2019 which his hitting the age of deferred maintenance I'd bet, coupled with not many out there I thought it may be easier to get a good macan. I've heard about the engine out timing cover leak issue as well, but think that's only prior to 2019
Good call on the x3. A 4.0 or M would be awesome. I'll look into that as well.
Golf R is too small for us unfortunately. Dog space in the back is a must and the golf wagon we have is great for that. It's just too fuckin shitty of a car. Horrible driving dynamics, no power and the cheapest feeling interior of any car I've ever been in, including my 36 year old poorly maintained m3
