I was actually planning on buying either an M3 or Giulia QV and drove both extensively. I had never intended on buying a car for actual off-roading. With baby no. 1 on the way however, having a hatch and AWD appealed to me. I drove both the S and GTS and was sold after driving the GTS. With PASM + AS the car is fit to drive both ends of the spectrum. Being able to raise and lower the car, stiffen and soften the suspension, adjust the exhaust with PSE, and have RWD-biased AWD (Chicago Winters) with PDK was a perfect combo. I know current Macan GTS owners who came from M3/4's who said the driving dynamics are comparable. This was a no-brainer for me.
