I dont know about you but I think the new SUV from Porsche is a bit of a waste. They could be using the resources and time to be macking the sports cars cheaper. What do you think?

If you want to blow all your money on a 4X4 get a Range Rover.

in what sense do you say that is a poor preformer? as an suv or as a car? and in what sense of preforming?
0-60 in 5.4 is pretty damn fast for anycar let alone an suv, and handling is almost like a regular station wagon. it is a very good preformer for any car. off roading. . .ehhh. . . . not so much

You wouldn't believe how many Cayennes drive around in Belgium. It looks like they took a normal Porche and streched it to look like an SUV.
And you all know what i think off that kind off cars ...

if i want a car that can do 0-60 in 5 seconds, for the same price i'd buy a corvette. as far as i am concerned still SUV's are meant for off road driving, whats the point of paying upwards of $50,000's on a car which doesnt like off roading? hell for the top price of $80,000 you could get a viper. Much more fun. its also got poor fuel economy which in these times of raising prices is never a good thing:

Come now, a Range Rover is hardly a brick on wheels. The new ones especially, and who cares what it looks like on the outside when you have everything from heated seats to DVD players to games consoles inside?
AND it can drive off road.

Umm...you just made me realize that those modern SUVs are stuff for Sissys. Who the heck needs airbags, ABS, ESP, or every other technical stuff,such as DVD players and so on?
The only useful things in a car,besides the basic technical elements,such as an engine,etc.. are seatbelts and a radio.

Thats where your wrong. All you need is the Engine, and a gear box.

won't get much better mpg in a viper i can tell you that viper of yours
but, i totally agree with you and myself i am very anti SUV. i come from the birthplace of soccer mom, and we sure don't need these "talented" drivers driving around in 450 bhp tanks!
imho if you need cargo room get a station wagon!
