I've been a Porche lover all my life. But, I'll bet Dr. Porche is turning over in his grave. The first time I saw one, it was coming up behind me on the freeway. Before I knew what it was I thought, "Ugly!" As he passed me I realized what it was. Sorry, man I don't share your enthusiasm.

. I meen stick on to the things you make don't try to be difrent on the things you are not ment to be.
Porsche is a sports car and it should stay that way and not become a offroad thing something.

Heh, Porsche just jumped onto the "make a luxury suv bandwagon." Look at MB, BMW, etc. Once manufacturers noticed people's interests lied in suv's luxury car makers had to have a piece of that market. Oh well, to each his own... I'm not a fan of the cayenne though. Porsche is known for their 911 body type, now I'm a fan of that!

It's ugly. Even for a SUV. Although the ugliest SUV is the Pontiac Aztec.
Porsche makes sports cars...
The only company lately to pull off a decent SUV is VW. But they have dealt with vans and trucks in the past.

I am totally not vibing on the whole SUV craze that has been going on. The cayenne defiently looks better than that the honda element or the pontaic aztec. The Luxury SUVs are the worst...Granted they are well built and manufactured cars they are not good off road at all. But honestly who would buy a $50+ and take it into the back woodsj and get it muddy.....NO ONE WOULD

Well like previously stated, the VW is the sister to the Cayenne. It won SUV of the year first year running, before barely being out. Having worked for VW and having visited the test site in AZ, I can say that the Touareg handles great on the road and even better off road. During this test we tested 20 other SUVs. The first track designed only the VW, Cayenne, H2, and the Jeep Rubicon could complete it. I must say after a full test the VW is better off road than any of the others tested(including the H2). The Porsche is better on the road, partly due to the Twin turbo 450hp V8. The Touareg is coming out with two new versions due at the end of this year. A V10 diesel, and a W12. I did get to test a V10 version which makes around 500 pounds of torque. The Porsche is also rumered to be coming out with a V12 version. Final thoughts: The Porsche and the VW are very stunning in their performance on and off road. Anyone who does not think so.....drive one if you can. I do agree though being so expensive, I doubt you will see many off road. Although, the Illinois State Police bought some from us before I left, because of their off-road ability and GPS which you can set to return you to any previously set point. One last word of advice, dont judge until you have experanced it for yourself.
