ROFLMAO!!! That's one of the funniest things I've read in a long time.

I haven't owned a Porsche for very long (always wanted one though), but I have no ill feellings for any other Porsche out there. I think they are all cool in their own way, even the Cayenne. The idea that a Porsche owner could hate on another Porsche owner because of the type of Porsche they drive is ludicris. I shake my head and wonder why.

In my heart of hearts I do think Porsches should all be sports cars, but Porsche is a company and making money is important. So if they have to make an SUV and a sedan to stay competitve, then I won't fault Porsche for that.

On that note PLEASE DO NOT MAKE A MINI-VAN!!!

I think Porsche should change the name from Panamera to FuglyStationWagonmera. . Kudos to Porsche, for hiring design engineers from Kia.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Uhh, this is no artist rendition. A fair bit a camouflage though.

Not that bad!

I guess this is what happens when you put the 911, cayenne and 928 into a mixer and blended. It certainly looks "different"

FWIW, no one loves the look of the cayenne yet I know many 911 & boxster owners also own a cayenne
