I would buy that one, and I don't really like SUV's.

What sort of a nut would buy a Porsche SUV?

I like it, although, I was disappointed to see them still knocking the Panamera.

It keeps Porsche in business and the new Cayanne is a looker if I've ever seen on.

I agree. The 2011 Cayenne is a great looking car.

It looks like they're trying to get some "marketshare" from BMW X6... I quoted marketshare because there's very little market for coupe SUV's anyway.

I don't even get the "Coupe" SUV thing? The only reason I even have an SUV is for the 4 doors and convenience of it for the Kid & Dog.

Looks like a giant Golf or somthing

Good Grief.... another Porsche SUV. One was more than enough; now they have really lost it.
And with the Sub-Boxster probably coming along this makes Porsche look pretty desperate. These entry level vehicles are gutless.
Porsche is now competing with BMW

I'm waiting to see what McLaren puts out in the next few years....
