Default Use of the term 'Pig'
It seems as though a lot of people are using the term 'pig' when referring to the Cayenne......I suppose it is similar to the use of the term 'shark' when describing the 928.......who would have thought.

Just my 2 cents from the cheap seats.

Wasn't there a discussion a while back about the variants of the Cayenne and how they relate to pigs? I think there was a rating system. Not sure where the GTS fits into the overall scheme.

Any thoughts on the upcoming Panamera and an appropriate nickname for that?

As am I. Can't wait for Biden to explain how President Roosevelt went on TV to calm the nation when the market crashed in '29. Roosevelt wasn't President then, nor was their TV. But we all got the point.

That's because McStain hadn't invented the TV yet - but he working on it. His efforts (of course) led to the Blackberry.

I don't envy Biden's position.....

He's got almost nowhere to go but down......she's got almost nowhere to go but up.

I think what clinched it for me was the photo of the pink cayenne with the ears and the snort that Greenpeace was parading outside the factory a few months ago... That REALLY burnt the image in my brain that Cayenne IS a PIG

I thought you coined that term and IIRC you called a Cayenne Turbo S a Pig with lipstick LOL.

Well if pigs are slow and wallow in their own feces how does that relate to a CTTS?

Did I coin the term 'pig'?
I don't remember exactly.

I do recall introducing Purplesaurus Rex Kool Aid to the forum.

Doesn't matter how much they airbrush the pics, what fancy artful angles they take the pictures.. Put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig.
This has to be the ugliest car around.
