Default Cayenne aerodynamic design rationale...

I snapped this photo while my wife and I were out scoping out some potential building sites for a new home. As I looked back at the photo, I saw how closely the aerodynamics of my P!g mimic the aerodynamics of my Golden Retriever...

I think I found the inspiration for the original design!

LOL!

Uncanny, the more you look at it, the more you realize how every line and curvature is a match!

I think that means your Dog looks like a P!G!

Both of my Golden Retrievers are pigs! That's not new news!

I wonder if what they say about resemblance between dogs and their owners also applies to cars and their owners (leasers)?

Yes, it was!

Running out of good material to post. It was better than my annual photo of my snowblower...

Wait! You have a snowblower?

Not enough room in my garage for those. As a matter of fact the shovel is sitting on the front porch cause I don't like things like that in the garage

I'm at a little higher altitude than you are though... I have two snow shovels in the garage and the snowblower. I used one of the shovels this morning. We still have a foot of snow on the ground up here.

I guess it all depends on what you like... I'm going skiing on Friday!

I like your new avatar... Is that Stelvio Pass? It looks like it...
