Mish,

Thanks for the support. I guess I didn't say that quite right. But, I have to say that I am more than a little surprised at the number (though they may well be the minority here, as you suggest) of folks on this and other forums who shelled out large amounts of money for a Cayenne, but are very vocal critics of the looks of it. Perhaps these sorts of boards and discussions tend to make folks seem more critical than they really are. Personally, I buy vehicles for their function. Appearance is almost never a major consideration for me, - though it could certainly be a deal breaker if I truly considered the thing "ugly." On the whole, though, I'm just glad there isn't a forum out there for my cars to critique MY appearance.
