The steering feel and feedback of the Macan is better than the G80. The engine sound cannot compare. It is as fast as the 6MT G80, sub 4s 0-60 and 12s 1/4 mile. It is 4" shorter than the G80.
For me, the above things + easiness of getting in and out (hips and lower back issues) were an easy decision...
I would totally disagree with you here. No matter how many times i try to like macan. I can not find a single thing i like about it. I think this video says it best - it is good at nothing and is the most domesticated porshe in the line up.
I have m4 x and x3m and was looking for direct comparison videos



There are very few direct comparisons of macan gts and x3m especially on the track but after owning x3m for 1.5 years i can definately say it outperforms gts on the road circuit. Everything is better - acceleration, braking, cornering, mid corner balance, corner exit. X3m is definatly faster around the track. In the below video it beat gts by 7 seconds on 2 min track
