It's a 2 ton sports-car - not an SUV.

I test drove a Cayenne-S Titanium Edition when I took my Boxster in for service. This SUV is UGLY.  It is the ugliest SUV on the planet.  Actually, it is so ugly, that you start thinking it is pretty after you look at the sticker.


The Cayenne S is the "middle" of the road model - with a 4.5 liter V8 that generates 340HP. The seats are firm, the steering is stiff, you have the "thumb-shifters" that Porsche has with all of its tiptronic [automatic slushbox] cars. this thing is bloody fast.  If you HATE SUV’s like I do, this is the one that will change your mind.


But it is not cheap -$70K to start with and 15mpg with premium gas.


Bottom-line: A SUV - it isn’t - a sportscar - it isn’t either.  So, who is gonna buy this SUV - it is [in my books] a chick car!  It is for women who want to feel like they are driving a sports-car, yet carry 5 people and some "stuff" when they need to - in  a P-car.
