...by the time I reached the speed limit, of course Ok fine...within 5. Anyway, there was definitely effort on the Porsche driver's part, but I had a much better start from green. In case any of you are looking at switching to an SUV for a performance gain, you may want to consider your mod options first. I do wish I had his brakes, though.

And if any of you happen to be Cayenne drivers, then please understand that it is with the utmost respect and esteem for fellow german car enthusiasts that I say

Nyaaah!

Default do you know which version you went up against?

I would imagine we would not be able to hang with the turbo, but I drove an 06 V8 and definately felt a chipped allroad would be able to take it.

Default A friend has a turbo that he is considering doing the software update for... almost $3K

It fits a niche, but I like driving my allroad better personally. The Cayenne is higher than I like to ride but it is a great FUV (Fast Utility Vehicle).

The sedan is coming, maybe we will see a wagon to follow? Porscheroad, non turbo for $55K and Turbo for $70K..... I would have to wait until someones lease ran out but I would probably have to consider it.

Not surprised. I think there's a 3/4 ton difference in weight between them.
