Re: Cayenne 2 Spyshots
Hmm, camo often does what it's meant for: hide the true lines of the car. Some details can be seen under the camo, but it is not easy to see the whole picture of the car correctly. I'll wait untill I see it without camo. Thanks for the pics!

Re: Cayenne 2 Spyshots
The style improvement is evolutionary, yes but it is a huge step forward to a much cleaner and refined design.
Some people may actually prefer the imperfection of the current Cayenne (first gen, facelift) but judging by the sketches I was able to look at, the next generation Cayenne will definetely not encounter much criticism regarding its design. The VW Touareg apparently will use the same shape but the rear and especially the front part will be completely different.
Power-wise, expect at least 540 HP in the Cayenne Turbo and more in the Turbo S.

Re: Cayenne 2 Spyshots
the problem with it is that it looks absolutely boring. it's the teutonic german thinking of having to blend in. i want to be able to tell a cayenne from a touareg. porsche needs to bring some excitement back.
while i agree that they should not be flashy as some italian offerings, they should be more 'special' and not just run of the mill with bigger brakes and tires.

Speed has never killed anyone, suddenly becoming stationary... That's what gets you.

I respect your taste in choosing the X6, but many people consider something like the X6 (design-wise) as a useless exercise in making an extrovert and provocative object for the sake of just being different. These designs usually attract a number of novelty seekers and have a relatively shorter life cycle.
Therefore, BMW that make 3 different SUVs can afford to experiment with such designs and exploit small sub-niches. Porsche with 1 SUV must make sure that they satisfy "normal" demand. If the rumour is true that they will introduce a second SUV in future, then perhaps they will be more adventurous.

Re: Cayenne 2 Spyshots
What I do notice (not sure if it has been mentioned before) but the Cayenne 2 seems to body roll quite a bit, is it me? I assume PDCC and other stabilizing system will still be available

Re: Cayenne 2 Spyshots
Thanks RC - the Pepper and the VW are already kissing cousins, no problem with shape-sharing. If the Cayenne Turbo heart remains in Stuttgart exclusively and the economics stay in line with my reality distortion field (small percentage increase due to new model year) and do not over-reach to cover past hedge-funding errors - it is a drawing card for me.

Re: Cayenne 2 Spyshots
Thanks for the photoshop work Isuk!
Two observations:
1. As some other members already stated: it looks like an Audi, rather than a VW now.
2. With camo on, it looks smaller than the current Cayenne models. Without the camo, it looks bigger...

The front raised (above engine cover) arches and the rear shoulders are 100% Porsche.
The car won't be smaller than current model but the styling might make it appear more compact.
