Thinking about a Cayenne Turbo!

RodyP · 08-18-2006, 08:11 AM

please someone get this idea out of my head, i'm thinking to trade in my E90 for the porsche.

what do you guys think'?

r_liebo · 08-18-2006, 08:16 AM

I think that car is a very poor value for your money. Outrageously expensive, terrible mileage, poor resale, and poor reliability. If you are dead set on a performance SUV, I would wait for the new X5. Shouldn't be too long for the new "M" version to arrive (although it won't be called an "M" -- Mazda has the rights to the M-X name), and it will be a much better deal than the Cayenne Turbo.

RodyP · 08-18-2006, 08:21 AM

yes but i can buy one with full options out of germany for not a big price and 55.000 km's

get the jeep grand cherroke srt8 a shitload less money and just as fast. 4.6 to sixty. If you do this you can keep the e90 also.

the cars are in completely different classes. It may be fast but i dont know if luxury is on the menu.

way better than an X5

Perhaps the current one, but I'd reserver judgment on the new one until it is out. Plus a Cayenne Turbo, at least in the U.S. , costs considerably more than an X5 4.8is. By the time you add all the options, you could almost buy another E90 with the savings. IT may be better than the current X5, but not by that margin.

RodyP · 08-18-2006, 12:40 PM

no x5 for me, don't like the look of the new one, cherokee sounds good but i still prefer the cayenne, such a great machine

Range Rover Sport. The best SUV. Period.

RodyP · 08-18-2006, 01:05 PM

my mom had a range and that one used to make a lot of noise in the cabin

younghov85 · 08-18-2006, 01:11 PM

it may cost more, but it's faster

stop drinking the kool aid folks

the adjustable suspension alone makes the porsche leaps and bounds ahead of the BMW

the next gen x5 is coming out in a 5.4is which generates 420 hp which isnt that far off from the turbo

ward · 08-18-2006, 03:02 PM

yeah, but still 100 hp shy of the turbo S

I still think the Range Rover Sport is the best looking SUV out there. Don't have the exact specs, but not too bad performance wise either.

whippersnapper · 08-18-2006, 06:50 PM

where do these idiots come from?

What is the connection between a heavily modded 3 series and a truck?

just4kickz · 08-18-2006, 07:28 PM

i dunno i'm not so fond of the cayenne at all... i would rather get the sports car instead of the SUV... i mean if he needs the SUV for day to day purposes... why not go with something less wallet draining and more fuel efficient? i mean i understand its his lifestyle but if he's just buying a car for kicks i'd still recommend the sports car...
