Porsche Cayenne is here!!!!!!!

DonutMan · 03-05-2002, 10:07 AM

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

very, very odd! but hey! it's fresh!

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...

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.

Cayenne=

And to the designer(s)

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
