Here are the first pics of the new Porsche Cayenne SUV from the Porsche website:





These first pics are of the Cayenne Turbo. Specs are as follows:

4.5L Biturbo V8
450hp
460ft.lb from 2,250-4,750rpm
0-62mph in 5.6sec
Top speed ~165mph
Seats five
Permanent intelligent AWD
Wheels range in size from 18-20 inches

These are the Porsche Cayenne S:





Specs are as follows:

4.5L V8
340hp
310ft.lb. from 2,500-5,500rpm
0-62mph in 7.2sec
Top Speed ~150mph
Seats Five
Permanent intelligent AWD
Wheels from 18-20 inches

I like the looks of the Turbo, but the S is a little iffy right now--not the performance you would expect from a Porsche.

IT BETTER HANDLE INCREDIBLY WELL, OR ELSE!

Later

:flash:

Maybe.

The exhaust thing on the turbo is too big IMO... And who the hell wants to do 165 mph in a suv? It must be extremely unstable at this kind of speed... I really don't know what to think about this all $hit , maybe they will make another generation of the 928 and put those engine in? That would be better than this IMO , something to compete with Mercedes SL , or maybe even Ferrari 575M and Aston Martin Vanquish...

Porsche

Well said, altough I think that the Carrera GT is Porsche's Ferrari eater.

I have lusted after Porsche's all my life. They are outstanding cars with a real history, and Porsche seems to nurture that history. This Cayenne is a DISGRACE, by far one of the ugliest cars (for the price) I have ever seen. I can't say it compares to the Aztec, but this things is REALLY ugly. The turbo looks like it is taking a crap, and the wheels on the S look like hubcaps off a Ford. What the hell were they thinking! I can't say my opinion of the 911/Boxster has changed, but Porsche is not as...cool...as they once were in my book. If Porsche has survived in a niche market for so long, why did they do this. I'll stop complaining now because I sound whiney, but this thing is horrible. It could start another war with Germany.

I thing the new Cayenne is ugly as shit. Specially the Turbo, what about those front bumpers with those huge intakes? It shouldn´t have bumpers then! And the back, is uglyyy, too plastic, I never expected something like that from Porsche. And yes the wheels on the Cayenne S loos very much as those on the Focus ZX5, which is good

I also find it a little homely. And people who buy this to have a fast SUV, or the status of an SUV and a Porsche (lamers), deserve to have their money taken from them, and to have a machine that is almost completely useless in the real world.

Just my $.02
