There are only 26 of the refreshed 2024 model year on the used market and only 84 when looking at 2022-2024. There are more Urus Performantes on the market than all years of Turbo GTs. Not sure I understand where you are coming from - those units/figures are considerably low for U.S. inventory this day in age. There are more 992 GT3s up for sale than all years of TGTs.

Lots of 2022s went to flippers as the rumors of them being more rare than a 3RS were going around - obviously do not think that is (or ever was) the case but wanted to answer your question. I think that is why you see some of MY2022 with multiple owners. The car is f***ing brilliant - so good I kept it over my Urus Performante. Cross shopping a x5M and a TGT shouldn't be considered. Different ownership, drive, performance, handling, "exclusivity" (sort of but low volumes), and price brackets. The BMW belongs in an RSQ8 discussion.

Real owner here. I took it over my UP and would do it again every time.

Won’t be popular for saying this but I preferred the X5M. The suspension was less stiff than my 991 with SPASM. To me the X5M was always sporty and playful. The Cayenne had better steering and exhaust note but the air suspension just sapped the sportiness for me…even in sport mode. It’s just too isolating.

The Turbo GT is another league up in price from the X5M but the styling and interior still seem a little dull to me.

At the end of the day the playful nature of the X5M and its better value proposition won the day. Love Porsche and own 2…but the SUVs are quite different from the other models IMO.

agree with this assessment.
however both the CS and TGT are GOAT GT cars
neither is a sports car
that’s my issue since I own both.
one makes the other redundant

x5m vs TGT is a no discussion unless cost is a factor

The UK only received 200 Turbo GTs and like the rest of Europe they’re no longer available for 2024.
