I got a Cayenne S as a loaner from Pepe Porsche in White Plains. No disrespec to owners, but man that car stinks. Can't hold candle to my LX570 in creature comforts and pot hole smoothing and no I'm sorry, it does not drive like a Porsche, let alone a sports sedan. It's def an SUV w/ huge body lean on curves. And what's up w/ the driver seat? It's rock hard in all the wrong places and I was in agony less than 5 minutes in the seat. Why didnt Porsche make it easy on itself and plop the 911 seats in the Cayenne? My C4S seats are the most comfortable car seats I ever sat in, bar none (and an impatient douche that I am, I've been in many a car seats.)

The 6cyl Cayenne is a slob, I have had a few as loaners. However the Cayenne S is a great ride w/ a great engine. I feel best in its class. I owned one for 3 years and really enjoyed it.

I have to agree that the V6 is a dog, but the V8s are great.
I have shopped just about every SUV avail and I can't find a more well rounded choice than the Cayenne. However, I also hate the seats.
Just yesterday I was checking out the Ford Edge. Supposed to be a compact little SUV. It weighs 200lbs more than a Cayenne S, and has about 100hp less. To me that's a dealbreaker.
As to the Lexus or infinitys...I like the body styles, but the suspension is mush, and they are terribly underpowered, as well.
