Default Cayenne Coupe Mule Spotted: FML

Not sure there is really anything to say, Porsche has gone AWOL, and it's partially our fault for encouraging them that everything was ok by buying up Cayenne's by the armful. It's like not disciplining a recalcitrant child while they're still young and cute and before you realize it you've got an overgrown wreckless adult in the family and they go out thinking it's ok to destroy everything. This is why we can't have nice things .. Seriously, Porsche has left the building, and it's the end of the world as we know it, and any other cliche or bit of song lyrics you want to throw at this disaster.. Have at it, in comparison to this monstrosity you can do no wrong.


-The fat lady sang, and it was sh!te.
-Et tu brute?
-Forgive them, for they know not what they are doing
Kowabunga dude
& of course, FML & #FML

And lastly,

WTF PORSCHE??

This looks more like a Panamera on Steroids.

You can expect more like this to come from the once small but innovative company that has now been gobbled up and taken apart/re-engineered/re-configured by the VW group.

In 1995, PAG was on the brink of bankruptcy as Wendelin's answer to saving it was to reduce model selection. The 968 and 928 got axed and PAG brought out the new water cooled Boxster and 911; with the Cayenne being introduced a few years later.

Today, there are five models available with at least 4-5 variants of each; and more to come. Gone are the days when at least three neighbors on your street all had the same model and color Chevy Impala. Like it or not, people want variety and selection; they also want to stand apart from the others.

I didn't think it was possible for the 5 series GT to look good next to anything.

Thanks Porsche,
Love BMW

I agree, I do not think that's a Cayenne at all ... but as someone noted a Panamera/X6 variant.

But it is ugly.

I read something about a Panamera Estate in the works. Wonder if this is what they meant.

I can assure you the car will not look anything like that. It's just a Panamera body thrown on top for disguise.

Way too early to comment on appearance.
