It's not that bad

Better than the Panamera...Cleaner...more purposeful...like the Subs/GMT's of the Rolex line.

I had my car in the shop for maintenance and I had the oportunity to drive the Cayenne and, later, the Cayenne S. Loved them - even the base Cayenne can be a blast to drive, and I'm not a fan of SUVs.

I almost bought one when I ended up with my Lexus RX 400h. I test drove this vehicle and the BMW X5 4.8 Liter. I only went with what I got for the green factor. I just got 27.8 MPG coming home from Minnesota at Christmas time. My wallet thanks me for my decision.

I love the Porsche though.

I have my eye on the latest Cayman S, but alas it will have to be postponed.

The latest one has been called "the best sportscar in the world" by no less than Motortrend Magazine. Pity the poor 911, they say. We'll see, but it sounds like a heck of a car. Should hit the states by March/April.

I love Porsches..very puposeful..generally really like the Rolex sports line :)

that cayenne is sooo good looking and definitely with the technology of Porsche, its the perfect SUV...the cayman S is very very sleek too..great flowing design and that one-piece kind of look to the whole car..its like every part every segment of the car was made exactly for THIS car..great unison to the whole design..the cayenne design is getting there too..the SUVs generally have many lines th==where their design breaks..but this 2010 is too good..thnx for sharing.

FYI - in the US you can get Porsche automobiles heavily discounted through Costco... You still go to a dealer, but they give you special pricing.

Cayenne appears ~10K off of sticker. 911 about 11K or so.

Not a bad Porsche fan, but they are kicking butt in the initial quality surveys. That's always a good thing.

To me, the essential element of luxury is dependability.

That is starting to look great. But why did they try to make it look like a 911 from the front in the eraly models? The upcoming Panamera is the same. I don't get it. Why can't they design a new front?
