#52 of 2015 It's too bad ..... by andys120 Jul 20, 2002 (2:07 pm)
Porsche's designers were content to repeat the square box theme common to all utes. They should have taken a cue from their cousins at Audi who give their station wagons such a fresh sleek shape that it doesn't seem pretentious to call them by a special name, "Avant".   The other design disaster was grafting the front of a 911 turbo onto the square box. The result is akin to what you'd get if an Explorer rear-ended a 911.   Just goes to show what happens when you start with a really bad idea.   Hell they couldn't even come up with a good name! What's the matter with "Dakar"?

Jeep has it copyrighted. They had a concept Wrangler 4-door with that name a couple of years ago.   Bob

LeMans or GTO.
#55 of 2015 The earlier versions of Cayenne... by poc911 Aug 03, 2002 (8:10 am)
....looked better, IMO. It had a smoother look to it and the rims looked nicer, too. Although it resembled a beefed up Boxster or 996, it "looked" like a Porsche. Being a Porsche owner myself, I am disappointed that we waited so long for this. Porsche AG even put their factory racing program on hold for several years to focus on this project.
#56 of 2015 Cayenne price list was released for US by jstyle Aug 07, 2002 (2:24 pm)
Base model S at around $56800. But the real news is the Turbo model. Besides the obvious engine, it has a tremendous amount more in terms of interior appointments and electronics standard. I don't understand why the base doesn't come with the advanced suspension for great on and off-road abilities. Seems to me the base is a jacked up wagon. The turbo model comes in at a whopping $88900 base. I don't know what the market for these is except perhaps people that want to one up Range Rover owners.
#57 of 2015 Wow by bored Aug 07, 2002 (5:14 pm)
For $56,000 I would expect everything, but this is a Porsche, not a Cadillac. Even after that, Luxury Tax and Gas Guzzler tax is going to kick whoever buys it in the Poorhouse anyway. I see it as a bragmobile.   Anyone really know who's the Closest Contender for this Box-On-Wheels?
#58 of 2015 WSJ Article by sbcooke Aug 21, 2002 (10:14 am)

Reading between the lines, if you think the luxury SUV market is saturated and Porsche is late to the party, you should short the stock sometime before the official rollout.   (don't come crying to me if you actually do this! - usual disclaimers <g>) Steve Host SUVs, Vans and Aftermarket & Accessories Message Boards
