Re: Cayenne facelift info
hmmm..
well I personally would take the new X5.
The cayenne just doesnt look up to date anymore.
The next 3-4 years will be very hard vor Porsche in terms of Cayenne sales, since the new ML and X5 are brand new models (G class should also be counted), better looking, and offer a much better performance.
And lets don't forget, the unanderstandable tranny problems.
The X5 4,4 of my cousin launches like a rocket from standing still.

Re: Cayenne facelift info
Avoe,
on that note, I heard that recently they showed the comparison between Q7 and the C-turbo (I'm not sure was fifth gear or top gear or may be some other program) and the new Q7 appearently blow the Cayenne out of the water in every aspect.
Does anyone one have a link to this show?

Re: Cayenne facelift info
Sorry Ron but the Q7 is the same as the cayenne and the touareg. The are on the same basis, so they share the same problems. Weight, etc. I also think they are using same tranny system? At least the cayenne and the touareg.
I the X5 you need to push the thorttle very carefully, since if you press it to much, the car just jumps forwards. I am sure there are many X5 owners that can comment on that one.
Sure the design looks more fresh now, but since the X5 offers now 7 seater option (will make many decisions easier for buyers), very nice interieur design, and the exterior looks also very aggressive. so I guess this car will lead the market for Premium SUVS.

Re: Cayenne facelift info
If that's supposed to be a TT there are still anomalies. It's definitely got air suspension but only a single centre grill and no power bulges on the bonnet. The only thing that tells me it's a TT is the 997 TT style light fin in the grill.
There's something very odd with that photo! I'm wondering if it's a photoshop.

Re: Cayenne facelift info
Well, in the article,they say that only a few strips of tape were removed with pshop...
What I dislike is that the front looks the same like the 997 tt... and it looks very cheapish. They are artificially connecting the cayenne turbo to the 911 turbo, and I think it is better to distinguish it more from the 911. Why must the tail lights have that very same revision as the taillights we see on the 997 revision? :dunno: it doesn't really make me happy!

It is going to be hard to keep reasonable sales untill 2010 with this... The novolty of the new front and rear does not take away from the general ' old' looking body.
I couldn't agree more. I hope there are still some camo that we can't tell.
Funny thing is I showed the front picture to my wife and the only thing she noticed was different was the european lic. plate

Unless Porsche figures out a way to make cars from mud I just don't see how they will keep up their current profitability.
Remember they're still making money off their old reputation and fame. I would say if Porsche was a new company they had no chance to survive with their new design ques.
