    Iba yung dating because it's a reskinned VW Touareg, you mean?

    There's not really anything special about the Cayenne... at least not more special than an Audi Q7, BMW X5 or Ranger Rover Sport. It's an SUV. Built on a VW platform. It doesn't have a Porsche 911 suspension, it doesn't have a 911 Boxer engine (the base model uses the VW VR6), and it doesn't have the nimbleness of a 911.

    It's a great truck, to be sure, as far as super-trucks go. It's amazing in the sand dunes, can take a lot of punishment, is mind-bogglingly fast and has a really nice interior. But at the end of the day, the only connection between the Cayenne and Porsche sports cars is that every Cayenne sold gives more funds to Porsche to continue developing 911s and Cayman/Boxsters. That's it.

    Nice truck. but again, the Porsche badge doesn't make it any more special than the other super-trucks out there.

    On that note... does it really have to be the "M" or the "GTS" (not considering the Cayenne Turbo? Really rapid.... if you're not going to track it, you'll appreciate this more than the GTS)? Ever consider the Ranger Rover Sport?
