    Meh, if Porsche is gonna build an SUV, it should be damn capable off road. That's the point of SUVs. The current Cayenne is extraordinarily capable off-road, just no one takes them there because of the pricetag.

    with that design, they might as well call it a wagon. I don't like the design of the Cayenne in those spy shots, especially the taillights

    Porsche should stick to building great cars and stop fucking around with this urban jungle/soccer mom crap. Lambourgini learned their lesson, porsche should follow suit.

    Unfortunately, because of the market right now, it's the urban jungle crap that allows Porsche to have the money to develop it's sports cars.

    I very much doubt the sale of their SUV is supporting their sports car. It's just a "keeping up with the jones'" move. They dont wan't BMW to offfer something 'they' don't.

    Actually I read somewhere that their SUV is their best selling vehicle in N/A now. I am sure it's very profitable for them.

    The Cayenne has done very very well since it's introduction here and by far is the top selling model. I've read somewhere than the Cayenne made up 48% of Porsche sales a year or two ago. Now sales have slowed considerably, but I dont think the Cayenne was a bad move at all for Porsche.

    OK, I stand corrected.

    But I still wouldn't buy one. Not that I have 100k burning a hole in my pocket.

    Then Porsche wouldn't give a shit if you would buy one or not.

    The Cayenne is a perfect example of "dollar-voting" those who can do (The Cayenne is the most profitable per-unit SUV on the road) and those who can't, well, f-off...

    As long as Porsche doesn't go low end (1 series, A/B Class, A3), it's fine with me.
