Not great, especially given the economy, SUV and/or Porsche Cayenne sales, and the invoice/gross margin on the vehicle/options.

Touch screen? Really? Where did you read this? Dealer literature? Do you have any pictures or additional details? Sounds fascinating.

No, NOT the Hybrid Cayenne.
That was simply a Trojan Horse, conceived by the Marketing department as a hedge against the despised diesels, to play the game of emissions/fuel economy requirements.

Larry's designs do not have 'uncontained thermal events'....i.e. his designs do NOT catch fire during demos.....they merely have 'non repeatable volume events' or 'random voice prompts'......

but then again, it's the internet, don't believe everything you read.

No, that would be the Rev A remote key fobs....keep throwing them at the car, in a pouring rain, until the door opened....remember?

Along a similar line, there was the 'keep slamming the rear window shut, since it seemed to decide to open all by itself'......remember?

Multitouch.....no, I would venture a guess that there are MUCH more interesting 'Easter Eggs' in PCM3.0
