Can someone help with car id please?

Hi all

Im wondering if some one can help me identify a car that i have seen?

It is a black suv sort of like a bmw X5 but bigger and beefier. It has double twin exhausts. And the name of it is on the side in silver and red i think. The writing is about 2 or 3 inches high and i think the name starts with a G or a C and is quite long. It sounds like a fully worked drag car or some thing. The noise that comes out of it is unbelievable. This thing just screams!!!
I saw 1 in London and 1 back here in Australia. and they are the only ones i have seen. Sorry i dont have much more info than that.

Can anyone help me? Cheers.

Could it have been a Porsche Cayenne Turbo?

That would be my guess, too.

Those Cayenne's are offered with several different engine options. Some, like this one are pretty wild.

Re: Can someone help with car id please?

Hi guys thanks for the replys.

Unfortunately it is not a cayanne. i have seen many of these around the gold coast.
This car is some thing unusual. The fact that ive only seen two probably means not your run of the mill car. Its like seeing one of the new ford GTs, ive only seen two of those as well, one was being driven by jeremy clarckson from top gear. This thing is a beast. it sounds like it is about to start ripping up the bitumen and spit it out the back. It must me from a not so well known car company.
I wish i could give you more details. It is driving me mad though not knowing when i will see it again.
Austin

Do you think it was anything exotic? Such as a Lambo or something of that sort.
