I'll answer this but for my wife's Macan S. I daily drive a 996 C4S and own a 356 C Coupe and a few 914's. Have also owned air cooled 911's.

The build quality on her Macan is amazing. It's a 2015, has 70k+ in miles and looks new inside and out. It handles like a well set up sports sedan. It is fast and in sport or sport plus the engine and trans are super responsive. Has an amazing growl to the exhaust. The ergonomics and design are driver focused. It's not the most practical vehicle in it's class by far. The back seat is small, storage is so so.

My buddy dailys a 2009 Cayenne GTS. He would say some similar things although the Cayenne has better storage and rear seating. It gives up some sportiness to the Macan. He's a contractor so it works great for him.

OP, nice Cayenne, congrats! The diesel intrigues me and they seem pretty rare. I hope it works well for you long term!
