and no way would a rational cross shopper pick one vs a G8X unless they want the Porsche badge and the (limited) extra practicality ..
Yeah, it's surprising that people think the Macan is a better sports/drivers car than the M340i. I would be shocked if a CUV, even a Porsche CUV, could be better than an M2/M3/M4.
