Default Mac v Pepper

If you are showing properties in person vs. remote, Cayenne. Hot hatch for 2 and possible 1 passenger behind short person, Mac. And that Cayenne won’t buff out it appears. They are both crash worthy, stout platforms.

That is one horrific crash! Very lucky to have been able to walk away from it as you did.

With a newborn and a rear facing baby seat in the rear, it'll be too small to fit in the macan and even if it does, extremely uncomfortable for the driver or passenger up front. I'd suggest taking your planned baby carrier/child seat and asking your friend to test fit in their macan. Not all baby seats fit the same way depending on brand.

Good point. On mine, which was already forward facing, I had to click up to a more vertical position (slightly before she reached that weight) to get it to fit somewhat decent. The more reclined the seat, the less room, and the rear facing seats are very reclined for safety standards. I would take a look at what is popular for 911s to see what is most compact.

good combo. I have a gts and an x5m comp. The rear seat room in the x5 isn’t amazing either. May move into an rsq8 for the kids

As far as the rear seat space goes, the upcoming EV is said to be much roomier in back. If you are open to an EV and can wait for more details to become available, I would wait.
