Nope, the Cayenne is much better looking [driving]
UUHHG!! GAG me, That Cayenne is horribly designed and built on a VW Toureg Frame. Unstable as hell from what I can tell, I have seen numerous Cayennes in ditches and crashed into road barriers......not typical of a Porche.....IMO, that was Porches second and hopefully last mistake.

That X6 looks bad ass and I would take that over the Porche Cayenne any day of the week and twice on tuesdays.

My X3 can performance like a sport car. Not even 1/10th of a sec of roll over impulse feeling, even driving 105 mile/hr on the highway. I am so impressed. I didn't expect this to happen in my life. I remember back about 5 months ago, 1st time I went back to the BWM dealer after the purchase, the sale advisor asked me, "How is the car?" It is my 1st time to own a 4x4 due to the job situation and I am a very, extremely aggressive driver. I have to answer, "It is functioning!" Followed by a nod. The poor guy was speechless standing in front of me.

Excellent job BMW!

I agree that the Cayenne isn't a great looker but it IS ridiculously good dynamically. To say it's unstable seems incorrect IMO when it regularly beats 'sports cars' round racing tracks which comprise challenging corners. As much as I dislike it, the Cayenne is a beast and Porsche have worked absolute wonders to make it as quick and agile as it is. Oh, and the brakes on the Cayenne Turbo will grind you to powder!

I don't want to irritate you in any way but I completely disagree with your statement about the Cayenne being unstable! [slap]

Ok, driven by professional drivers on a track, maybe the Cayenne is super.......but...... for mere mortals I see it as a liability.....not because of anything I have read, but because I have first hand seen several cayennes as I stated before, in ditches and in guard railings. Probably 15 or more in the last 3 months....now that is alot given the rarity of the vehicle. That is what i was saying.......maybe I am wrong and the world really is round[driving]

Yeah the Cayenne is definitely not unstable at any speed. I think the fact that you've seen lots of them in ditches is just coincidence, to tell you the truth. The Cayenne is a great car, no doubt about it.

I wouldn't have one though [hihi]

Porsche has done a really great job with the Cayenne. The Cayenne Turbo with the standard adjustable suspension is amazing on-road and amazing off-road. That is why the Cayenne gets so much attention; it is the first SUV that offers amazing performance in both worlds (on and off road). And the Touareg uses the Cayenne platform...Porsche designed it and VW is using it, not the other way around. The only thing Porsche likes to use from VW is their cupholders.
