Thanks, I already looked into the German configurator. Some features are options for the German market. ( e.g. automatic hatch )
The Cayenne is getting so much more expensive, grrrr.....
The USA configurator is online too. I used it to translate my specs from french to english in another thread.
The US price is about 40% lower than the swiss price!!!

Before I ordered my X5 M, I was actually planning to buy the car in the US and spend a longer vacation over there to drive around Route 66 with the X5 M. I decided against it for various reasons, especially since I wouldn't have been able to lease the X5 M.
Of course the USD was 1.52 EUR by that time, the advantage is smaller now.

Look closer...
The USA configurater does not list MY11 vehicles as of today...
Only MY10
We are always last in line
Yes you are right, thanks, but the price in USA will be significantly lower than in Europe, especially in Switzerland.

1. prices in the US are without local tax
2. different markets, different prices
3. USD/EUR exchange rate fluctuations
4. "real" USD vs. EUR value at parity (I know many Europeans hate to hear this but we're getting there again sooner or later, thanks to Greece, Portugal, Spain and dumb politics over here)
Btw: have you taken a look at UK Porsche Cayenne prices ? Ouch.
The Cayenne Turbo is 23000 EUR cheaper in the UK than in Germany if I'm not mistaken.
