Hi Cayenneturbo, bienvenido a Rennteam!
El Turbo en nero es muy... sinistro(?), me gusta!

"La Turbo", for some reason suvs tend to have feminine pronouns and cars masculine pronouns in spanish, weird and I have no idea why. And its "siniestra", lots of points for the post though. btw, I'm not trying to be disrespectful with the corrections, just helping out a bit

You're not bad at it, just keep practicing. Another tip: the sound of a "C" like in cat or car when you want to have it before an "i" or an "e" in spanish is written with QU like poquito. Cheese for example would be "queso" . If you write a C before wither e or i it sounds like an s, for example "to make" is "hacer" but your pronounce the c like an s.

Saw two late model Cayennes today--both driven by women. The first car was a 2010 Cayenne (base model), meteor grey and nicely maintained. I chatted with the lady, who said she LOVED the car, especially how "sporty and peppy" it was. She had always wanted a Porsche, and the Cayenne was the first Porsche that allowed her to do errands and carry kids about.
The second Cayenne was a 2011 Hybrid, also meteor grey and impeccably kept. The lady said the car was perfect for all the driving she had to do each day, and that she had traded in her two year old Mercedes wagon because of all its mechanical problems. She commented that the build quality of her Cayenne was "night and day better" than her Mercedes. She loved the fact that she was saving so much on fuel, although she said the engine cut off feature when stopped unnerved her at first. The car was also nicely optioned out with a dark wood package and sport seats.
I am only posting this because I think my small sample may be an indication that Porsche is broadening its customer base into the lucrative Mom market, which should bode well for the new Cajun...
I like the comment about the Cayenne build quality compared to the Mercedes. My ex-wife's experience with her two X-5's has been similar; very problematic. My Cayenne has not been trouble free but definitely much better than what I've heard about the X-5.

Now that the lucrative moms can't buy Hummer H2s, they have to go somewhere!
In Hummer's case, nearly 95% of buying decision makers were females and the marketing data showed that the Hummer gave them the feeling of protection and that they were protecting their families.
The Cayenne's a far lighter, crisper product, so it must be different moms. Or maybe they just decided to lighten up.
