even though the trunk cargo space is the same, it looks like the X4 has more "floor space" while the Macan gains more air space (higher rear roof line), X4 could be more practical because of that.

I actually like the rear of the X4 more than the Macan, but like the side more on the Macan, fronts is about equal, I like the new X3/X4 front (looks like a baby X5). Interior I think the Macan wins, I have an X3 and am not that impressed by it and they didn't really change anything in the X4.

BUT you can't compare the Macan S to the X4 35i with price, sure its about $2,000 base price difference but look what is standard on each and then add in options to see the real difference, its probalby more like a $10,000 difference when equiped the same...

Also interesting that both are 0-60 in 5.2 seconds. We know BMW is conservative with HP numbers, but 40 less and the same 0-60 times? either Porsche is conservative with their 0-60 number (and BMW is aggresive, which could be because the X3 35i has been tested at 5.5) or the Porsche is HEAVY.
