From the downsizing of my 'fleet' to a single vehicle and the sad sale of my Cayman and purchase of the Macan (due in part to failing flexibility and health of Mrs Ben) I can say that whilst I miss the stunning looks of my Aqua Cayman, I am really enjoying my White Macan S.
The positives are many, including performance - especially with Sport Chrono. Fuel consumption is not too horrendous given the performance. Comfort within and ride are very good despite large diameter wheels and the sound system is pleasing.
Primary among the positives are the PDLS LED headlights, behind which, I had to drive with some 'enthusiasm' last night. The auto system is just amazing. Lots of light, where you want it, when you want it. The car is, as Mrs Ben says, 'excellent' ...................... apart from a surprising couple of not so good features..............
Voice control of the PCM; Nav. in particular is atrocious - hardly fit for purpose. Significantly worse than a Peugeot 2008, which was quite good and my previous 'normal car'. Thank goodness for Apple Car Play
The Chrono 'wart' on the dash reflects badly in the screen at night............... I think I may have seen a separate control for that hidden on the menus somewhere, so I shall have to 'go looking'.
Discoveries? A few. The extra push on the brake whilst stationary on level ground to activate 'hold' is a great feature to avoid blinding those behind. The proximity setting on the touch screen is also good so that a hovered finger does the job.
Sounds good and has an appropriate number of cylinders.
Loving the car.
So, four months on............
Yup

Tuning the mileage reset button left or right will take you straight to dash brightness, can’t recall if there’s a separate control for the SC clock (don’t think there is)

I think it was more when you’re in a queue...and have been for xx minutes. Everyone knows you’re all stopped and the high level / eye level lights can get a bit wearing!
