Where the green accents on your instruments of your 992.1 part of a special package? Or is it just the white balance of your camera? It looks very nice - almost S/T like.

It seems that people don't like full digital instruments, but the one in 992.1 was just non-sense compromise leaving only the rev meter analog. Because of that you could barerly see any data on the edges where the navi map was shown and some other information such as time and temperature. The one in 992.2 solves this problem. It's natural evolution and improvement. I did not read anywhere about the quiter sound in 992.2, but in this video it obviously seems it's indeed quiter. Thanks for video. You need to do quick one for exterior differences :)) Light signature and such.

I've had both and can definitely attest to what is being said here. I recently traded my financed 24 GTS for a leased 25 Macan EV. I used to daily the GTS, and it is a practical car for both sport and casual. And similar here, the price for me were about the same, but the Macan 4 EV has so many nice features. To echo what Mike already said, the GTS is an all-rounder for sport and casual, but the Macan delivers a level of luxury that is absent on the GTS. The only reason I traded the GTS was because of the lease offer and because I put an order in for a 911 GTS (t-hybrid); there is no need to have two sporty cars. But if you can only pick one, I think Mike summed both of them up perfectly!

honestly, i think anyone who wants a GTS, is not gonna opt for the slower Macan 4 EV. They're gonna get a 4S or turbo. I don't think they compare just cuz of price. both of which could be obtained for around the price of that EV you showed. and you mentioned that they were comparable, but didn't show the interior of either. i was hoping to see how the ICE macan differed on the inside. I think your point of ppl wanting to opt up for the next model in a couple years may be the most valid point toward leasing. Not that the value is going to plummet. Cuz you know that the residual is set at the time of the lease anyway right?

I drove the Macan EV Turbo and found it a great drive. But as Mike points out, early adopters are going to see their used car value plummet as I'm sure we'll see range increases over the next 4 years on newer models that will render the current Macan EV, not obsolete, but certainly much less desirable. I think that goes for almost all EVs though.

You’re never going to feel ANYTHING with that G.I. Joe, king-foo grip on the wheel. Please drive that same route, but this time, make a CONSCIOUS effort to grip the wheel very loosely in a high-speed turn. It’s not easy to do: your brain wants you to grip that wheel tightly. But if you can overcome that instinct, a whole new world will open up for you, my friend. You’ll feel the front for the first time. It’ll help you with future reviews, too! (Lots of track time in a 2019 NSX, a 911, and a Blackwing.)

Let me open by saying I’m not trolling anyone. As a long time porsche fanatic and owner of a few 911’s along with other Porsche’s, I have some strong opinions. In my opinion, a 911 Cabriolet is totally a chick car. One of my 911’s is a Targa 4S manual 992.1 and I love it. It looks better than a cab and I think is much more unique and I think safer too.
