Thanks for the feedback, however, the mercedes has horrible reviews (consumer reports), and the Q7 is just not a sports SUV at all, I too like audit a lot, but I think with the Q7 they really messed up! Its way too large, I think Im going to go with the Cayenne, especially not that I test drove again and discovered the sports button, it really adds a lot of power, plus I believe the Cayenne is the MOST attractive of them all. Fine finishes.

Good for you. I'm a fan of Audi too but I think the Q7 is too large and external styling is not my style so I gave it a pass when I search for my SUV. Love the technology and innter styling thought.

Does the Cayenne have an auxiliary stereo input (3.5mm single input) like the X5? If so, you can buy a $10 cable from stores like BestBuy to connect an iPod to an external stereo. Then just operate the iPod using its controls. It works great on BMWs that ship without a USB connector.

The new X5 is too big, and looks overweight. Same goes for the Audi. These cars are made to accomodate the 3rd row seating, which are very cramped. Cayenne is a better choice if you don't need the 3rd row seat. Build quality is very high, and drives in a sporty way, but also very comfortable. Have owned mine for over a year -- no problems and no regrets!

Hey there, SO I got the Cayenne a few days ago, I really like it! The seats are a little too tappered for me, I prefer flatter seats, but thats ok. SO regarding hooking up an Ipod, how hard and costly would it be? Have you dont it yet? any tips? thanks!!
