Interesting videos but both cars are stuffed with extras and the reviewer talks as if these items are standard.

Why spend time looking at Video Reviews when you can be out there driving your Macan/911/Boxster/??????

There is not one car that I have bought due to watching a Review.

The only way to know if a car is for you is to drive one.

Yes. perverse the way he complains about the leather on the Cayenne when I think his preferred Racetex /Alacantra is the standard on both GTS's.

However, neglecting that he grasps the sportier essence of the Macan with the greater space and hence luxury of the Cayenne

Not when all the local garages were out of fuel due to protesters and you need your relatively full tank to drive from Sussex to Bolton on Tuesday!!! plus its Easter weekend and on the South Coast the Arundel and Chichester bypasses plus coastal roads are jammed solid

Pretty pointless comparison in my view. From a UK perspective, and from my perspective, you’d only go for the Cayenne if you want/need the extra room as I did. Otherwise the Macan has it all.
Also, those cars are loaded with a huge amount of extras except, bizarrely, sunroofs. Once you load up the “necessary” extras the price difference doesn’t really justify the extra spend unless you need Cayenne size.
And, as mentioned in another post, the standard Cayenne interior is alcantara which looks a hell of a lot better than the truly hideous colour scheme of the vehicle on the video. Interesting that this is a show car.

Agree completely. Just two different cars fulfilling different briefs.
