One irony I find is that the broader general public could likely not even tell the difference between a base Macan and a Turbo. In fact, most people think my car is a Cayenne! We exist as a small microcosm of enthusiasts on this forum.
Yes, also find most people that comment on my Macan think it's a Cayenne. It's sapphire blue and Cayennes don't come in that colour!!
Us enthusiasts know that and probably most of the other differences but as you say we are a minority group.
..although there was a Sapphire Cayenne in the showroom in Bristol yesterday, complete with roof box and cycle rack on the tow-bar........
