Here is what Forbes thinks the Cayenne will look like. I will get to see it on the 6th of February. What do you think of this shot?

 

I think it looks great and will be very excited to see it firsthand.

 

Matt,

Will you be attending the Preview in Costa Mesa Ca. on the 6th?

 

Unfortunately not...
The dealer principal is going in my place.. So i guess I just need to wait until the training event.

Not to start any flames...But, I am very much looking forward to the Cayenne arrival.

Regards. Matt

 

I live near Costa Mesa Ca. Is it possible to attend the preview?
Maybe with a member from the Newport Beach Dealership?

 

From my understanding, it's limited to Porsche dealer owners or sales managers. With specific instructions of no photographs
and no details to be given out to the public.

Sorry.

 

Your quite right NO Information to be repeated or Pictures taken. But I do have it on reliable sources that this pictur in Forbs has it right but with the hood not as sloped. As I was told " Hell You Have to Have A Motor Up Front" so I take it the front is a bit more squared.

How about this picture for the 4th model in the Porsche Line Up.

Dear Bill,
Somebody scanned that photo from the German press from at least six months ago. I am reliably informed that it is a fake.

The fact is, nobody knows anything about this car. Not me, Bill, you or your reliable source.

 

I'm on the record...I won't buy a Cayenne. No matter how much spin porsche puts on it, or how many amazing reviews it gets. I consider it porsches second step down a slippery slope.

 

Am I the only one who thinks that pic of the cayenne looks ugly as crap?

 

In this specific thread a post reads "Am I the only one who thinks that pic of the cayenne looks ugly as crap?
I'll chime in with a IMHO, The Cayenne looks just like a SUV, its design details aside, most all SUV's carry a simalair styling theme, unless you're viewing the MB mini van / SUV.
"If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck its a duck"

Our beloved 911 is about to reveal yet another chapter of development shortly('05)and word around the campfire is PAG is incorporating a bit more 993 flavor the recepe. Possibly, the Bosxter series could carry the torch, that is, a light weight with HP and extreme handling sports car.

Let's wish PAG all the best in their interpretation of the SUV duck.

No, Damien, you are not (if it looks anything like the pics we've been seeing). The fried egg lights look bad on the Boxster, they look bad on the 996, and they will look bad on the Cayenne (IMO, of course).

Maybe, Chris Bangle is working evenings at Porsche.

 

Dear Tobias,
You really want to be careful what you say and what assumptions you jump very stupidly to. You have no idea who people on this list are or who they know. I also find it offensive from the people like yourself who post without signing off a real name and even keeping where you are from a secret. No ident just some person hiding behind a computer keyboard.

Well to me this SUV looks just about as good as any of the other sportier SUV's on the market. I would not be in the market for such a vehicle because I would require of my SUV an actual ability to slog through thigh deep mud etc. These SUV's built by MB, BMW and now Porsche are there solely to take advantage of a buying trend among Americans however misguided it may be. So why not build it? I in no way agree with it but hey, it's not my company. Also, I think the best thing they can do with it to give it some kind of racing heritage is send it to the Paris/Dakar Rally next year.
